“Your Court Street Lawyer”
Richard A. Klass is the quintessential “Court Street Lawyer,” as defined by the New York Times: “a street-smart sharpie with verve, hustle and a striver’s charisma.”
Practicing law much like a critical care doctor functions, Klass is the lawyer clients appreciate when the issue is so vital.
