I was cited for a moving violation with a 6-point penalty, and fortunately my brother's friend recommended Casey. He got my offense reduced to 0 points, no record, and a fine I could live with.
Don't try to represent yourself or go with any other attorney if you have a traffic violation; get Casey!

My husband and I have gone to Roseann for a number of legal needs. Whether the issue is business-related or personal, she is able to quickly and professionally present options and resolve the matter. I would highly recommend Roseann and partner Peter Schuyler.

Kitson & Schuyler helped me to complete an unexpectedly difficult real estate purchase recently. Problems arose on the seller’s end and Roseann and Peter went above and beyond to make sure that the sale was finalized as quickly as possible. They were flexible when it was required but also very tough when it seemed like I was going to have to pay extra money due to the seller’s issues. I didn’t have to pay any extra costs and I got the house of my dreams. Roseann and Peter gave my purchase their personal attention and responded to my questions and concerns quickly and expertly. I would not hesitate to use them again or to recommend them anyone I know.

Roseann Kitson Schuyler handled the writing and execution of my willl. She competently followed up on all details in a timely manner, and arranged for a well-conducted ceremony.
Ms. Schuyler also handled some real estate matters for my family. This was also handled in a timely and competent manner.
We are very satisfied with Ms. Schuyler's work, would use her services again, and would recommend her to others.

I used Dan’s services to close on the sale of my apartment last year. He is a straight shooter who possesses as much common sense as he does legal knowledge. Dan is honest, personable, diplomatic, a good listener, and has reasonable rates. His paralegal Jessica is also very organized and relays messages in a timely manner.
Dan is quick to return calls and is open to working his schedule around your needs. His expertise, professionalism, and accessibility will assure you that you’ve made the right choice.

Our agent highly recommended Annmarie as an attorney for buying our home in Westchester, NY because of how great she was to work with as well as her deep network in the area. She did not disappoint. Annmarie was both proactive and responsive as things came up and even found an issue when visually comparing our new survey to the 50 year old title that would have cost us a lot of time and money in the future (but instead was taken care of by the seller prior to close). She was able to recommend surveyor and title company (that both worked out very well) and negotiated wholeheartedly on our behalf with the seller's attorney. She is open and trustworthy and we definitely recommend her for real estate law needs.

We hired Annmarie for the purchase of our home in Croton. We had a very good experience and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an attorney. She was detailed oriented, patient, and very responsive over email and phone, a feature not popular among lawyers, at least in my experience. Annmarie was helpful, had our best interest in mind and stayed on the top of her responsibilities.
