About Us
A Powerful Synergy of Trial Experience, Prosecutorial Insight & Uncompromising Defense.
At Portale Randazzo LLP, we do not believe in passive legal representation. Based in White Plains and serving clients across Westchester County, our attorneys bring more than 150 years of combined state and federal trial experience to the defense of your freedom, your career, and your future.
We are not a volume-driven firm that seeks quick, convenient plea agreements at the expense of your rights. We are a committed team of elite trial strategists who prepare every case for the courtroom from the first day of our engagement.
What It Means to Have Portale Randazzo LLP in Your Corner
Facing the criminal justice system or a severe regulatory investigation can be an isolating and intimidating experience. We believe that professional representation must be paired with clear, honest, and direct communication.
You maintain control: We break down complex statutes and confusing procedural rules into clear, understandable legal choices. We outline every available option transparently, so you always have full control over your case's direction.
Comprehensive investigation: We do not rely solely on the police report or the state's version of events. Our legal team meticulously gathers supporting evidence, interviews witnesses, and constructs an authoritative defense narrative.
Unwavering support: Regardless of what you have been accused of or what you have done, your constitutional rights are absolute. We stand with you at every turn; you are protected, heard, and defended to the fullest extent of the law.
Backed by more than 150 years of combined experience, our team of former prosecutors and investigators anticipates the other side's strategy, thinks several moves ahead, and prepares every case for trial.

Our founding partners, Richard Portale and James Randazzo, began their legal careers serving as Assistant District Attorneys within the Westchester County District Attorney’s Office. Having prosecuted complex narcotics, firearms, violent crimes, and financial schemes, we know exactly how the opposition builds an investigation.
