Mr. Mysliwiec has represented hundreds of clients in high-stakes criminal and civil litigation matters. Mr. Mysliwiec's criminal practice includes defending clients against "white collar" criminal charges and against more traditional criminal charges such as murder, rape, and narcotics distribution. His clients have included a Fortune 500 company accused of allowing employees to engage in illegal contract kickback practices, a corporate Board Chairman alleged to have orchestrated international criminal financial transactions, and a Bronx man charged with Murder in the First Degree. His civil litigation experience includes mass torts, employment, disability insurance, and contract issues, among other areas of the law. Mr. Mysliwiec takes pride in credibly and aggressively representing both individuals and companies - no matter what they have been accused of doing or what rights they have at stake.
