The Janey Law Firm P.C. website remains temporarily active for administrative purposes.
A Sophisticated Legal Practice For Clients Facing Significant Challenges
Mr. Janey has considerable knowledge of financial services and has had success defending both individuals and organizations in white collar criminal cases. His background and experience allow him to defend broker-dealers, investment advisers, hedge funds and others in the financial sector against securities fraud and insider trading allegations. As a defense attorney, he has been involved in some of the leading state and federal criminal investigations taking place over the last decade.
From our firm’s office in New York City, Mr. Janey represents clients in state and federal courts nationwide.
Delivering Powerful, Tailored Legal Strategies With Discretion
At our firm, we know that mere aggression is not enough to protect our clients’ rights. What is needed is assertive, strategic representation that focuses on achieving a favorable outcome. Mr. Janey focuses as much on initial motions as he does on courtroom advocacy because it is possible to achieve meaningful wins even in the early stages of a case.
Mr. Janey’s skill has been noted by his peers. He has been selected to the New York Super Lawyers list annually for the last several years and recognized as one of America’s Top 100 “high stakes” litigators, among other accolades.
