About the Firm

A Former Manhattan Prosecutor
Fighting for Your Future

A criminal charge can knock your life off course, but it doesn’t have to. The charges against you don’t define you. Attorney Ricky Shah sees something the criminal justice system doesn’t: you’re a human being with a future worth protecting.

Ricky has dedicated his entire legal career to the practice of criminal law. He spent nearly five years as an ADA in the Manhattan District Attorney’s office, prosecuting cases in an era when technology and sweeping legal reforms have redefined how the state builds its cases. He uses his insider knowledge of digital discovery and the evolving law to help you face down a system that sees you only as the charges you are facing.

Ricky knows what’s on the line for you, and he understands how important it is for you to get answers at one of the most difficult times of your life. He makes responsiveness and accessibility a priority, so you know you’re not in this alone. He gives candid, transparent guidance, so you can be confident in making decisions. And he uses a strategic, surgical approach to weaken the state’s leverage, dismantle the prosecution’s case and protect your future.
