Harrington & Mahoney

Harrington & Mahoney is one of the premier criminal defense firms serving Western New York. With a location on the Canadian border, our firm is uniquely equipped to handle the challenges of representing non-citizens in need of criminal defense attorneys. Our firm has a reputation for success and experience in representing individuals investigated for and charged with crimes in both federal and state courts. Our team of criminal defense attorneys is dedicated to providing imaginative and masterful representation to each of our clients.

Criminal Defense Services

At Harrington & Mahoney, we handle a wide range of criminal defense cases, from serious traffic violations to drug, marijuana, fraud, tax, environmental, antitrust, securities, immigration, customs, arms export control, health care, child pornography, Food and Drug Act, and other serious crimes, including death penalty cases. Our firm has experience handling the most complicated "white collar" cases seen in American courtrooms. We approach each case with a deep understanding of the law and a commitment to the individual rights and needs of our clients.

Appeals and Post-Conviction

Due to the difficulty of obtaining relief after a conviction has already occurred, we are highly selective about the cases we take in the areas of appeals and post-conviction motions. Our firm has the knowledge and experience necessary to navigate the complex legal landscape of appeals and post-conviction motions, and we are dedicated to obtaining the best possible outcomes for our clients.

Autism Criminal Justice

No law firm in North America has more experience or success in defending young men with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) of the type presented in Asperger's Syndrome in criminal investigations involving inappropriate online or offline sexual behavior, such as viewing child pornography. Our firm has specialized knowledge of the law and the role that ASD plays in creating severe deficits in social learning, which make it hard or impossible for individuals to appreciate how their behavior was wrong or violated the law. We are dedicated to providing the best possible defense for individuals with ASD and other neurodivergent conditions.

Experienced Attorneys

Each of our partners has over 45 years of experience as a private criminal defense lawyer. Our team has served as educators to law students, lawyers, and judges, and has been sought out for their expertise in the field of criminal defense. Mark Mahoney is the only attorney in North America dedicating his practice almost exclusively to the representation of those with Autism Spectrum Disorder/Asperger's Syndrome.

At Harrington & Mahoney, we understand that choosing a criminal defense attorney can be a daunting task. That's why we are committed to providing the highest quality criminal defense services across the state of New York. Contact us today to ensure you have the right legal team on your side.
