How our Albany Lawyers can Help
Legal trouble in the Capital Region can feel overwhelming, whether your case is headed to the courthouses on Eagle Street, a DMV hearing off Wolf Road, or family court. Nave Law Firm stands with people across Albany and the Tri-Cities in a wide range of matters, from criminal defense and DWI to divorce, injury claims, and much more. Our team of experienced attorneys, advocates, and paralegals is here to listen, answer your questions, and help you solve everyday people problems.
Criminal Defense
An arrest in Albany County moves fast, whether your case lands in Albany City Court or before the county court. Our criminal defense team protects your rights from arraignment forward and works to limit the impact on your record, your job, and your future.
DWI and DWAI
A traffic stop on the Northway or after a night out downtown can turn into a DWI or DWAI charge that puts your license at risk. Our Albany DWI lawyers know New York’s impaired-driving laws inside and out, and we fight to protect your freedom and your ability to keep driving.
Driver’s License and DMV Matters
Losing your license in a spread-out region like the Capital District can upend work, school, and family life. From DMV hearings to points, suspensions, and revocations, our driver’s license team helps Albany drivers get back on the road.
Traffic Tickets
Tickets from the Thruway, the Northway, or a stop on a busy Albany street add up in a hurry. Our traffic ticket attorneys work to lower points, fines, and insurance costs so a single stop does not follow you for years.
Divorce
Ending a marriage is hard enough without a confusing court process on top of it. Our divorce attorneys guide Albany families through separation, property division, and parenting decisions with patience and clear, honest advice.
Family Law
Custody, child support, and other family matters touch the people you love most. Our family law team helps Capital Region parents protect their children and build a steadier path forward.
Personal Injury
A crash on an icy Albany road or a fall on someone else’s property can leave you hurt and unable to work. Our personal injury attorneys pursue the compensation you need to heal and move on with your life.
Construction Accidents
The Capital Region’s steady construction and renovation work carries real danger for the crews on site. Our construction accident team stands up for injured workers under New York’s strong labor laws.
Civil Litigation
Business and personal disputes can drag on and cost you dearly. Our civil litigation attorneys bring real-world experience and a level head to disagreements across Albany and the surrounding counties.
Guns and Firearms
New York’s firearm laws are among the strictest in the country, and Albany-area agencies enforce them closely. Our guns and firearms team helps you protect your permit and exercise your Second Amendment rights safely and legally.
Education Law
With the University at Albany and many area school districts nearby, education disputes come up often in the Capital Region. Our education law attorneys advocate for students and families facing discipline, disability services, and other school issues.
Sexual Abuse
Survivors of abuse deserve to be heard and treated with dignity. Our sexual abuse team represents Albany-area clients with compassion and a firm commitment to holding wrongdoers accountable.
