About the Brooklyn office
Local counsel when the next court date matters.
Sharifov & Associates, PLLC’s Brooklyn office is at 1629 Sheepshead Bay Road, steps from the Sheepshead Bay B/Q subway station. It is the firm’s New York City office for people facing an investigation, an arrest, a Desk Appearance Ticket, or a pending criminal case in Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, or federal court.
When a case is active, the first questions are practical: which court it is in, when the next date is, and what needs to happen before then. Consultations are available by phone, by video, or in person by appointment. Whichever you choose, have your court papers ready so an attorney can review the court, the charge, and the next deadline with you.
