The Law Offices Of Mehdi Essmidi P.L.L.C. - New York, NY

I am incredibly thankful for my kind and helpful attorney, Atty. Mehdi. From the moment I stepped into his office, he knew exactly what to do to keep me from going to jail. He made the right decisions and stayed by my side for years, helping me get back to work before my sentencing. Attorney Mehdi is not just a lawyer; he feels like a brother who genuinely cares. He wholeheartedly helped me stay with my family during one of the most challenging times of my life. He’s a good man who puts his best efforts into winning your case. He never hesitated to give advice and even got firm with me when I doubted myself. Mehdi truly fights for you. You can reach out to him anytime, and he’s always willing to help and listen. His dedication and passion are unmatched—he has the heart of a good father and a brother who will always fight for what’s best for you. Atty Mehdi is incredibly smart and talented, with the expertise to handle even the toughest cases. He never left my side and saw my case through to the very end. I truly believe he is a God-given blessing. If you’re looking for a good attorney, Atty Mehdi is the one. He’s not just a brilliant lawyer but also a brother and a father figure who wholeheartedly dedicates himself to fighting for you and winning your case.

From the very beginning of me getting in contact he was available to me every step of the way whenever I needed him. I can tell that he was sincere in the fight for justice in my case which he was able to dismiss and even after its dismissed still making sure that I know what my options are moving forward. I’m grateful for his tremendous dedication to his work at hand

Mehdi was nothing short of amazing. I had a complicated case involving a family member who is out of the country. He explained the process needed to address the case and walked me through every step. My relative and I had to do everything via zoom and to phone. Mehdi made the process seamless. He was readily available and his communication was exceptional. If he was unable to respond to my inquiries, his paralegal was great in ensuring my questions were answered in a timely manner. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney. GOD bless him.

TLDR: Mehdi is a smart, attentive, and available lawyer. Will always get back to you, will fight for you for real, and is ACTUALLY affordable (honestly you?re getting way more than your monies worth, he deserves more than what he asks for) I must have called 10 or 15 (literally) Lawyers before I came across Mehdi and he was THE ONLY one that actually talked to me like a normal person. He explained to me what cases like mine have looked like, he clearly broke down for me everything I needed and the game plan and genuinely calmed me down (multiple times lol). He always kept me informed, whenever I called him or texted him he called me back & answered all my questions. He hounded the ADA on my case making sure they looked at it with the same importance as their other cases. Most importantly I could afford him. Not a single lawyer I called before him quoted me less thank almost 3 months worth of my rent (90% sure you are on the same boat if you?re reading this) if you?re like me you make too much for public defender and not enough to to afford to pay 3 months worth of rent. Mehdi was fair in what he charged me. He understood what I was going through and worked with me. Honestly I couldn?t have asked for a better person to represent me. He got my case literally the best outcome possible (very happy about that!) and all while keeping me from panicking and stressing out on a regular basis. Frankly this dude deserves 3 months of my rent but he never even asked for it. I hope I?ll never need him again but if I do he?s gonna be my first call.

What an amazing attorney. So professional, personable, knowledgeable and invested in the result. We could not be happier with Mehdi and we recommend him to everyone. You hope to never need an attorney but in this country - anyone can sue anyone and you have to be prepared.

The most patient & Nicest lawyer i have ever meet. He genuinely cares about the person as if it was his own blood. I highly recommend this lawyer. The best criminal defense attorney there is!!

Very profesional and honest . Would really recomend.

I am writing to review the services of Medhi Essmidi, who provided a defense for an action that led to serious criminal charges. If convicted of the charges, we are looking at a minimum of 15 to 25 years, but we were very grateful for Medhi's expertise. His vast knowledge of the legal system was a lifesaver. His compassion exceeded the courthouse and the case, knowing how easy it is to make mistakes and the cost of such action, especially for people of color. Medhi took the time to understand my case thoroughly, and he was able to develop a strong defense strategy. He was also very effective in communicating with the prosecution and the judge. He is assuring us that he will do his best not to go to trial because of the cost and stress it is likely to have on us. At trial, [lawyer's name] was excellent. He was able to present our case in a clear and concise manner, with a cause of action that led to the outcome. His ability to realize the mental and depressive state that caused a temporary separation from reality made the action really sad. In the end, his plead and compassion for the ADA charges were presented, and we were offered a leaser plead deal that took the incarceration off the table. He is a true lawyer. I will recommend Medhi to anyone who needs legal representation. His hard work, dedication, outstanding skills, and experience as a lawyer with truly human compassion make him more than a defense attorney, but more like a member of his family that is in a bind, and he has assured you he will move heaven and earth to get the best outcome. Without hesitation, I will recommend Medhi to anyone seeking the best defense lawyer to help you catch a break. Thank you, Mehdi. God richly bless you and count your sleepless nights as a reward here and in the afterlife

Mr. Mehdi was very professional and gave great, honest advice for our case. He has a genuine concern for his clients and not only dealt with our case with great detail but also provided us with a better understanding of the law in general. We don't have much experience with the law nor being prosecuted against and Mr. Mehdi was fantastic for someone like us.

Amazing lawyer. I recommend him if you need a great lawyer. He’s nice, compassionate, clearly communicates with you and goes above and beyond for you.

I highly appreciate Mr. Mehdi's legal services. His patience, responsiveness, and expertise helped navigate my case with ease. His professionalism, coupled with his kindness, truly sets him apart. I confidently recommend Mr.Mehdi for his excellent work and dedication to his clients.

I had the privilege of working with Mehdi Essmidi as my defense attorney in a complex domestic violence case. I cannot emphasize enough how impressed I am with his exceptional knowledge and expertise. Mehdi's understanding of domestic violence laws, order of protection, and the nuances of the Westchester County courts set him apart from other attorneys I have encountered. One of the most striking aspects of working with Mehdi was his deep understanding of the differences between the legal systems in Westchester County and the five boroughs of NYC. He was well-versed in the specific intricacies of the local courts, which allowed him to develop a tailored defense strategy for my case. What truly amazed me was Mehdi's ability to negotiate a favorable outcome without requiring me to admit any guilt. His ingenious strategy convinced the defense in my family court case to offer me an order of protection, ensuring my safety and well-being while safeguarding my legal rights. This accomplishment was a testament to his impressive advocacy skills and comprehensive legal system understanding. Furthermore, Mehdi masterfully managed to keep my family court case utterly separate from my related criminal case, mitigating any potential negative impact on either proceeding. His strategic approach and meticulous attention to detail ensured that both cases were handled independently and effectively. Throughout the entire process, Mehdi demonstrated unwavering dedication to my case. He was always available to address my concerns and answer my questions, providing me with clear explanations and guidance every step of the way. His professionalism, responsiveness, and compassionate demeanor were truly comforting during a difficult and stressful time. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mehdi Essmidi to anyone seeking a defense attorney in domestic violence cases. His extensive knowledge, remarkable negotiation skills, and meticulous approach make him an invaluable asset in the courtroom. Mehdi's commitment to his clients and his ability to navigate complex legal situations set him apart as an outstanding attorney. If you are in need of a defense attorney who will fight for your rights, protect your interests, and provide expert legal counsel, I cannot recommend Mehdi Essmidi highly enough. He is a consummate professional who will go above and beyond to ensure the best possible outcome for his clients.

Thank God there are excellent attorneys out there like Mehdi. Medhi is a respectful, kind, well articulated an extremely knowledgeable attorney. He is generous with his time offering support, guidance & successful outcomes. Medhi’s expertise is a rare gem, and I am so very thankful to him.

This is to express my gratitude to the Law Office of Mehdi Essmidi for their representation in a recent criminal case. Mehdi did a great job on the case and made sure everything went as smooth as possible throughout the process. He was always available to answer our questions and kept us updated. I would highly recommend him to anyone facing criminal charges.

I must say this was the BEST LAWYER HANDS down. Mehdi was kind, understanding and very knowledgeable on the subject matter concerning my situation. From start to finish he made this process easy informative and as understanding as possible. He helps you with anything you need. If you’re looking for a TOP-NOTCH LAWYER, look no further! Would definitely recommend. Thank you for everything.

Mehidi may possibly be one of the best lawyers in NY, he makes sure that your case is a priority and you can give him a call anytime of day and if he doesn’t answer he’ll be sure to get back to you and he produces results instead of promises.

Having Mr. Essmidi represent me was the best thing I could have chosen for myself. What was a difficult and scary situation, he made a lot easier by being clear about exactly what was going on every step of the way and keeping me informed. Instead of letting me take a deal he knew I did not deserve, he fought and pushed to get me a deal with a much better outcome, ultimately saving my record and my career. If looking for a great criminal attorney, I highly recommend choosing him and his firm to represent you.

Mehdi took my case the day before my court date. I was nervous, but he walked me through the entire process making me feel reassured. Although I wasn’t the easiest client to deal with, he worked hard to get the best possible deal for me. I couldn’t have asked for a better attorney.

Mehdi was a great choice. From the get-go Mehdi seemed confident and prepared for any possible outcome. He was very direct and precise with his language when explaining things to me. Above all, Mehdi was available when I needed him - both in person and by phone. When we did speak, he was knowledgable and assured in his ability to represent me. Thank you Mehdi for your help with my situation!

Great service! Mehdi was able to work out the best deal possible for me.

We was extremely pleased with Mehdi Essmidi. He was able to handle my husband case as quickly as possible with an amazing outcome. Went above and beyond doing more work than was required. We had his support all the time! Passionate and inspirational lawyer. Mehdi loves his work and drives into every case with passion and integrity.

Excellent lawyer I would like to give special thanks to Mehdi! He represented my brother in a federal case and succeeded to obtain the best possible result, respectively a served sentence and a reduction of the restitution amount. Mehdi is very professional, well prepared, experienced, and very responsive. Besides being a great lawyer, he is also very supportive with his customers, as well as with their families, from a moral and human peperspective. I totally recommend Mehdi, because he strives to obtain the best possible result for all of his clients, making them feel well represented and special!

Mehdi is the most amazing lawyer. I had a Federal criminal case in the Eastern District of NY. He took over my case when it was kind of stalling and he got for me the best possible outcome (time served) in about 8 months. The communication with him and his overall support for me and my family were great throughout all this process. Yet he didn't stop there. He was also there for me during the Immigration & deportation process. Thank you Mehdi on behalf of my whole family!

As a former New York City lawyer with nearly two decades of experience, I found myself in the unthinkable situation of being arrested upon arriving in California from overseas and extradited back to New York - in chains. Several lawyer friends turned my case down, but Mr. Essmidi took it on. When the government has access to all of your emails and text messages, you need a special kind of lawyer. I'm absolutely certain Mr. Essmidi was the right choice. He's not only skilled but also incredibly personable, building rapport with both the District Attorneys and the judge. In fact, when someone in the courtroom needed his contact information, the judge herself offered Mr. Essmidi's business card from her drawer. His calm, friendly demeanor was exactly what I needed in a high-profile case like mine. While the outcome wasn't perfect, I'm not complaining. If you're facing serious legal trouble, call Mr. Essmidi.

I engaged with this attorney for a criminal case, and while he was knowledgeable and competent, communication could have been better. We did win the case, but I was not impressed on how he and his team interacted with me. The fees were on the high side.
