Meredith A. Bettenhauser is a criminal defense lawyer based in Garden City, New York, representing clients facing criminal charges in Garden City and the surrounding area. If you've been charged, contact her office to discuss your situation.
I started my firm over two years ago and am proud to say it has blossomed. I look forward to going to court everyday to fight for my clients. In the last two years, I have gone to trial on at least ten criminal cases, ranging from violent felony assaults to misdemeanor sex crimes. On the hundreds of others, I fought to obtain a fair disposition of the matter for my client from the DA's Office.
Prior to starting my own firm, I was a Criminal Trial Attorney with the Legal Aid Society of Nassau County for over three and a half years, handling a full range of criminal cases. While at Legal Aid, I was lead counsel in approximately 5,000 criminal cases including assaults, DWIs, robberies, larcenies, sexual assaults, and burglaries. I handled the trial of cases at both the misdemeanor and felony levels prior to leaving for private practice.
My experience defending my clients is rooted in my deep sense of justice and an unwavering dedication to my client's interests.
