when thinking of lawyers , there are state guys and fed guys, guys from ny and guys from other states..all must be considered when fighting a rico case.. not all lawyers are qualified to fight the feds..lawyers from decades ago in the state were just front guys for the back room deals made with judges..many were appointed and owned by the bosses..so deals were made.. my opinion

Anybody here in criminal defense ? I've mostly defended petty things I couldn't imagine how a Rico case would be.
I work in the hotel industry, now called by the umbrella term..."tourism". But the closest I ever came to your field was working on one single case, pro bono, under a federal criminal attorney as his paralegal. He was a defense lawyer.
There's definitely law enforcement here, but the lawyers may not reveal themselves. Law enforcement, lawyers, book authors, historians, and mafia buffs like me. This site is packed like a sold out concert.

If u were a wise guy or lets just say for argument sake u needed a criminal attorney and could afford any lawyer past or present- who would it be ? Only ONE
Some notable lawyers
Frank Regano- Santo Bobby Simone- Scarfo's guy Ed Jacobs- Merlino's guy and was a young guy working with Simone back then Oscar Goodman- another famous lawyer who worked alongside Simone Roy Cohn- Carlo's Gerard Shargel- Cutler Charles Carnesi- Gotti jr Jeffrey Leichman Albert Kreiger- Bonanno/ Gotti Joseph Corazzo Ed Hayes- Gotti Jimmy LaRossa- big Paul Robert Kardashian- OJ Simpson
I know Cutler was disqualified as an attorney for Gotti in his case, was Jimmy LaRossa the other one disqualified because the DA said they were calling him as a witness, which they never did? He had to be good.

Alan Dershowitz.and F. Lee Bailey. Dershowitz is on a level of his own when it comes to the law and constitutional rights. F. Lee Bailey is as good a fighter as you'll find in the court room even if he ended up disbarred.

Carlo Gambino had to pass the hat around among his capos to get Roy Cohn's fee for defending Gotti in the McBratney case. Cohn got him a plea bargain: attempted manslaughter--sentenced to four years, served two. Pretty decent work, I'd say.

Dershowitz is the last of his breed...A constitutional attorney who cares about everyone's rights, and not just democrats

I know Cutler was disqualified as an attorney for Gotti in his case,
Gotti on tape saying Cutler's taking money under the table, and got away with it despite how he called Giacalone a c**t in court...
