There is a saying about attorneys that goes like this " God created snakes before attorneys because he needed practice first" I write this because with Lee you're getting a spectacular human being who happens to possess the title lawyer. When I came to Lee I was facing false allegations and had no hope. Lee's compassion and sympathy towards my situation helped me remain calm. When dealing with false allegations of abuse it is simple to have people question your character. Lee and his team never doubted me, they went above and beyond to make me feel at ease and to ensure that I fully understood each step of the process. Anytime I called Lee or his team I would get a response. When I say that he went above and beyond this is an example... my accuser used the order of protection as a sword and lied on the police report. I was arrested and told Lee about what actually happened. Lee is a named partner at his firm!!!! He could've sent someone else to collect footage to help prove my innocence!!!! Lee spent the entire day with my parents canvassing the neighborhood and pulling footage. At my arraignment Lee joked about having battle scars because of me.He had bruises and scratches from having to be in awkward positions to pull footage. Again he is a named partner, this man did not have to do that!!!! He could've sent another attorney or a paralegal !!!! This is the level of dedication you get at Koch Law!!!! Lee fought and fought until everything was dismissed and the truth came out!!!! More on Lee, as I mentioned earlier he is an incredible human with the title lawyer. He also secretly carries a second title.... you heard it here first, stand up comedian lol. In addition to the amazing legal advice and the fight he will put up for you.... the man will have you laughing and forgetting the issues you're facing. Sometimes you will need that escape from reality. I worked with Lee, Patrick, Edith and Natalia. All are amazing people and willing to do whatever to insure the best outcome for your case!!! Thank you Edith for dealing with me texting you evidence at annoying times!! Thank you for your patience. Natalia thank you for the important reminders. Patrick thank you for always picking up the phone, fighting for me, making me laugh and forgeting the issue at hand. Lee thank you for going above and beyond and making me forget my problems. You guys have a life long friend that is knowledgeable in mathematics and is willing to help you guys in anyway !!! Highly recommend!!!

If you are seeking a criminal defense attorney, look no further than the professional and experienced team at Koch Law, PLLC. I was fortunate enough to have their representation during a challenging situation and was thoroughly impressed with their skills and expertise. Their team is composed of dedicated individuals who worked tirelessly to ensure that my case was handled with the utmost care and attention to detail. They provided exceptional guidance throughout the entire legal process, answering any questions or concerns I had along the way. Their knowledge of the criminal justice system is unmatched, and their ability to navigate it is truly impressive. They were able to negotiate with the prosecution and get me a favorable outcome in my case. Through their hard work and dedication, they helped me move forward from a difficult time in my life. Not only were they professional and effective, but they were also compassionate and supportive throughout the entire process. They went above and beyond to make me feel at ease and to ensure that I fully understood each step of the process. Overall, I highly recommend Lee Koch to anyone seeking a criminal defense attorney.

  • Alex R Garzón

Lee is an incredibly knowledgable lawyer that actually cares about his clients personally. My girlfriend who is on an F1 visa, has had numerous issues being harassed while entering the USA over a criminal case that was ACD-ed (dismissed, no conviction). On our last trip into the USA from vacation, a CBP officer in secondary inspection continually harassed her and gave her a very difficult time. The next day we called Lee and asked if there was anyway we could prevent this in the future. Lee guided us through visiting the NYC court house and how to get a few copies of a signed and stamped Certificate of Disposition for my girlfriend to carry around every time she travels. He guided us through what my girlfriend should say to various future questions CBP officers could ask her regarding the case. He was incredibly kind and apologized to my girlfriend on behalf of the rude behavior of the CBP agents in our country. Lee knows what America stands for and he will fight for you and your rights and care for you as a person. Lee knows what place America should be, a place accepting of all. Thanks so much Lee!

When I first came across Koch & Essmidi Law by doing a google search, I thought to myself “surely reviews are fake, it’s simply impossible to have all 5-star reviews”. And here I am, giving a 5-star review (and wishing there was a 6-star option) for the outstanding service provided by Lee, Patrick Marshall, and Natalia Rincon. I am beyond happy that I chose Koch & Essmidi Law to handle my case and I am not the easiest client to please. The team is VERY experienced, and they plan ahead. At one point, when I was afraid for the outcome of my case, they told me “don’t worry, if plan A doesn’t work, we have five different ideas for plan B”. Not only they went above and beyond to answer every single question and fulfill every request, but it was also incredibly easy to interact with all team members as human beings. They are very fun to work with, which in a hindsight is so important. A typical case will take 1year+ to be finalized and it’s crucial to have lawyers by your side who will keep your spirit up.

  • Abeer Jain

Lee Koch a miracle lawyer! As someone who myself values intelligence, unbreakable work ethic, attention to detail, and perfection to get the job done, Koch Law is the preeminent firm you want to work with. Whether it is personal or professional services, Mr. Koch will be able to provide you with the best services. I had a case in which we thought the outcome was inevitable however Mr. Koch was able to deliver to us the unexpected dismissal of our case above all odds! I have worked and work with many lawyers around the country, and am proud to have Lee Koch as my primary and managing attorney whom I am keeping on retainer for all of my professional and personal affairs. Should you decide with work with Koch Law, you should know all well that you have hired the best and can sleep soundly knowing your situation will be taken care of with steadfast and grace. I am proud to have Mr. Koch by my corner and I know you will be too!

At first when my incident occurred I was scare, worry, and feeling lost, it was midnight I couldn’t sleep and I was searching online trying to look for a good lawyer that can help me, I made couple calls nobody reach back to me right away except Lee and his assistant Natalia, they are very gentle and warm on the phone which really help to clam me down, I wasn’t as nervous and worry after talking to them on the phone. We quickly set up a time to meet up and discuss my case, I'm glad that I made this great decision by choosing Lee as my lawyer, he always care about my emotions and answer all my questions, and also provide me lots of professional knowledge, so I can have a better understanding of what's going on. I also wants to express my sincere to Lee’s Assistant attorney Patrick, he is so gentle and nice and patiently explain everything to me and was with me the entire process.

  • Christina P

From the first consultation to the last phone call, Lee Koch and his team Natalia Rincon and Patrick Marshall have been outstanding. My husband and I had been searching for the right attorney to represent us in getting a green card for well over a year. No one seemed to have the energy and the specific answers we needed to feel comfortable moving on with a decision. The first consultation with Lee Koch was basically a “where has this guy been the whole time” kind of moment. Lee Koch, through it all was professional, punctual, exciting to work with, and knowledgeable beyond anyone we had consulted with previously. My husband and I are very happy and impressed with how everything was executed within a time that felt short, easy, and safe.

  • Tatlyn Newby

Mr. Koch is a AWESOME LAWYER. He is more than just a lawyer. He makes you feel important. He values your time and also show you that you are not just another case. He is there for you every step of the way. I have used a few lawyers before and I had to pray before I call them because they make you feel as if you want to strangle them over the phone, because of their whatever or don't care mentally and they are too busy for you. The only time they seemed to care is when you are talking about MONEY. Mr. Lee Koch is a breathe of fresh air to the world of attorney. His attitude and mannerism shows that he is doing this not just for the money or prestige, but for the love of it. Thanks a million Mr. Koch. May your basket never runs dry.

  • Rahul Sehrawat

  • T C

I never thought that I would end up in my current situation since I'm a good girl that does no wrong..lets just say that I'm a woman that spent a lifetime seeking to being wanted, yet little did I know that I would become a "wanted" criminal instead. I'm proud to call Lee n Patrick my attorneys. They are above board on the terms of the things these two will do to ensure you get the justice you deserve..Thank you both for the continued hard work n due dilengence that you have done. And I want to Thank Natalia (Para legal) for all she has done as well. The whole office has been great! Keep up the great work!! And I recommend them as criminal defense attorneys.

  • tchaikovsky cantalicio

I first came across Lee Koch when I searched google for attorneys in NYC. I was a bit skeptical because I desperately wanted my case dismissed and needed a lawyer two days before my hearing. Lee listened to my situation and took on the case on such a short notice. The energy that he gave off over the phone assured me that Lee was worth taking the chance with, and luckily it paid off. With only a day and a half of preparation, Mr. Koch was able to get my case dismissed, and I didn’t even have to step foot into a court room. Thank you again for you time and services Lee, I appreciate you from the bottom of my heart!

  • Adam Kociolek

I hired Mehdi Essmidi from Koch Law Firm to get me out from moronic yet serious situation. NYC criminal justice system is so wrong that even if I was on the right, they were still after me. At first on arraignment Mehdi got my warrant esponged, and had me ROR. It looked like Mehdi could mop the floor with prosecutor’s face. He is confident, knowledgeable and arrogant in a good way. In the end, on a pre-trial Mehdi handled my case and I got off with no record or nothing. Also special thanks to firm’s paralegal Natalia, who kept me informed at all times about everything.

  • Mariya Parodi

Lee Koch was incredible in getting my husband and I the advice and the assistance we needed in helping out in the immigration case of my father's girlfriend. The attorney she had spoken to prior had made unethical moves and Lee assisted us and took the time to speak to her. He kept us up to date on how much everything would be as we were very wary of keeping in line with our budget after the experience with the previous lawyer. He was very human and sincere in his approach and were were never left in the dark in any of our communication. 5 star human.

  • Barbell Barry

Lee Koch may be the best lawyer for your case, as what he gives you is realistic guidance on what truly is best. He isn’t just a lawyer, he is a friend and ally, with your overall best interest at heart. He is a solid lawyer who takes a deep, personal interest in your case. His heart is in the right place because he understands what his clients are going through; from my experience, he doesn’t just approach the matter from a legal perspective—he takes into consideration the entire issue and how it may affect your life.

  • Mikheil Tugulashvili

I will always be very grateful for the help I received from Koch Law. In the three years since I started needing their services, they have always exceeded my expectations. Whenever I need them, they were always available to help with a fast response, and their level of professionalism was always top notch. It was great to work with Lee and Natalia. They will explain everything in detail, and they made the process a learning experience for me. If you need an attorney, these are your guys. To Lee and Natalia, Thank you!

  • Rachael Rohr

Lee is extremely detailed and straight forward. I have had him on retainer for a few years now because I value professional legal advise for different issues that arise in both my personal and business life. Though I have used other attorneys in the past, moving forward Koch Law is my primary contact. He is a extremely knowledgeable, fast acting and aggressive about resolving or diffusing legal headaches and/or potential legal headaches. I am beyond grateful for his council and highly recommend he and the firm.

My wife and I came to Koch Law seeking help with applying for my wife's green card. We just received her green card and very pleased with the guidance and support Koch Law delivered and would confidently recommend their services for any immigration needs. Koch Law didn't just help us submit a full and complete application but stuck with us until we received the green card and was quick to respond to questions and concerns along the way.

Lee helped me tremendously going through my USCIS naturalization interview. Before the interview he explained several times what are the key parameters that'll decide the outcome. I believe Lee's presence had significant impact on the outcome. I highly recommend Lee, he'll be your source of truth when it comes to what's truly at stake in your case.
