Westchester County Computer Crimes Defense Lawyers
If you are under investigation or facing computer crime charges, retaining an experienced criminal defense lawyer immediately is critical to protecting your data, your business, and your liberty. Portale Randazzo LLP provides strategic legal defense for individuals, business owners, and IT professionals confronting complex state and federal digital allegations throughout Westchester County.
A computer crimes investigation can disrupt your life without warning, as law enforcement often seizes critical network infrastructure, servers, and personal devices long before criminal charges are ever filed. Because these offenses carry substantial prison sentences and potentially permanent professional disqualifications, our legal team is ready to step in early to handle law enforcement communication and safeguard your constitutional rights.
The cybercrime cases our bilingual team handles include:
- Unauthorized access and computer trespass
- Identity theft and credential theft
- Cyberstalking and online harassment
- Computer fraud and wire fraud
- Ransomware and malicious software offenses
- Data theft and corporate espionage
- Federal charges under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA)
- Internet crimes involving financial systems
High-technology offenses in our area are frequently handled by specialized divisions, including the New York State Police Cyber Crime Unit and regional federal cyber task forces. These entities routinely collaborate with local municipal precincts in commercial centers like Yonkers, White Plains, and New Rochelle to trace network logs and execute digital search warrants.
Our defense team, informed by the perspective of a former prosecutor, understands the methods used by these regional computer forensics teams to preserve mirror images and hard drive contents. We know how to protect your rights.

What to Do After Law Enforcement Seizes Your Devices
If investigators execute a search warrant at your home or business, remain calm and avoid interfering with the search. Do not delete files, alter records, or instruct anyone else to do so. At the same time, you are not required to answer questions or provide explanations without legal representation.
Keep a copy of the search warrant and any inventory of property that was seized. Make note of the devices taken and, if possible, document what occurred during the search. Then contact our office. We’re available 24/7, and virtual consultations are offered for your convenience.
Our attorneys can move quickly to review the warrant, evaluate whether investigators stayed within its legal scope, protect your rights during questioning, and begin developing a defense strategy before formal charges are filed.
Experienced Defense for Complex Digital Evidence Cases
Computer crime prosecutions often rely on electronic records, forensic examinations, business documents, and other forms of digital evidence. Building an effective defense typically requires careful review of how that evidence was obtained, analyzed, and presented.
At Portale Randazzo LLP, our lawyers bring more than 150 years of combined trial experience to every case. We provide practical guidance from the beginning of your case, keep you informed throughout the process, and work aggressively to protect your rights, your reputation, and your future.
Located in the heart of the White Plains business district, right off the I-287 corridor, our office offers convenient proximity to the Westchester County Court complex and the federal courthouse.
