Practice Area Overview

New York Criminal Defense Attorney

From the initial court appearance to verdict and sentencing, Attorney Curt Arnel aggressively represents clients from his office in Brooklyn, New York. He works to understand the facts of each case and ensures that Constitutional rights are protected. His law practice focuses on the following areas or practice:

DWI/DUI - A DWI/DUI arrest does not mean a conviction will happen. Mr. Arnel will work to make sure your rights are protected by examining the reasons for the stop, the methods of testing employed, and the technical factors involved in testing equipment.

Drug Charges - Curt Arnel defends clients who have been charged with possession, distribution, or manufacture of illegal substances, such as marijuana, cocaine, ecstasy, heroin, and prescription medication. He works to protect the rights of the accused when the police have used questionable methods in the initial stop or search and seizure that led to the arrest.

Domestic Violence - Curt Arnel, Attorney at Law, represents clients seeking to obtain, or defend against, an order of protection in domestic violence court. Mr. Arnel brings his family law experience to these types of cases.

Gambling - Illegal gambling cases can encompass high-level, organized gambling businesses or a friendly game of poker.

Prostitution - Many clients are charged with prostitution following a sting by an undercover officer. Frequently, many are entrapped into committing this type of crime. A skilled attorney can help present that defense at trial to ensure that your rights and reputation are protected.

Criminal Trespassing/Stalking - Menacing an individual by illegally entering their property or stalking can result in severe penalties. As these charges usually involve a preexisting relationship, an experienced criminal defense attorney can help distil the real facts behind the charge.

Resisting Arrest/Police Brutality - Resisting arrest is often charged to mitigate the use of excessive force by the police. Police brutality is a serious violation of your rights that can result in both civil and criminal penalties to the officers involved. An attorney familiar with these matters can help you protect your civil rights, and also seek money damages if appropriate.

Traffic Violations - One or two traffic violations may seem minor. However, multiple traffic violations over time can result in harsh consequences, fines, and increased insurance rates.

Burglaries and Theft - From shoplifting and petty larceny to breaking and entering, Curt Arnel represents clients charged with all types of theft and burglary crimes.
