Services
At Napier & Napier, our attorneys carry on a proud tradition of successful criminal defense representation for clients throughout upstate New York. Our father, Robert C. Napier, opened this practice in 1948. Today, his two sons continue to own and operate Napier & Napier. We provide clients with the benefit of decades of dedicated criminal defense experience and a commitment to personalized service.
If you have been charged with a crime, you have rights. The phrase "innocent until proven guilty" is more than a trite maxim; it is central to our fundamental rights as Americans. Even those who are indeed guilty deserve to receive a fair trial and a sentence that is commensurate with the crime itself.
Napier & Napier has defended New York residents from serious criminal charges since 1948. Our experienced attorneys capably assist clients with state and federal charges, as well as appeals. Below we compiled answers to some of our clients' most frequently asked questions to provide you with some important information about criminal charges and how to avoid jeopardizing your case.
Got me a better plea deal then I expected. Was very upfront and worked alongside me updating me on everything that was going on. Was very accessible and knowledgeable about my case which allowed me to get a great outcome. Jim Napier has been one of the best people I've came across when it comes to anybody in the legal system.
Among all types of criminal charges, sex crime charges are possibly the most devastating. New York prosecutes these charges aggressively, with severe penalties that include incarceration, fines and the sex offender registry requirement, as well as the destroyed reputation in the community. If you have been accused of a sex crime, it is absolutely critical to hire a team of experienced lawyers to handle your defense.

Napier and Napier both carefully walked me through the preparation of a grueling trial with amazing attention to detail, and a sound legal strategy. The win changed my life. I owe these guys. They care about their clients and will speak the truth. C.M.

Amazing!!! Transparent, open and honest. Jim always kept me up to date on what was going on with my case. More than a defense attorney he also helped me with a real estate issue I was having. Well respected and knowledgeable, I don’t need to ever worry about counsel or representation again. Thank You Jim

This guy helped keep me out of jail! I live in Chicago, and I was in Rochester for work. I drank a little much one night, and the judge wasn't happy with me. Hired Mr. Napier on the spot, and he got the case dropped for a low price. I would definitely recommend him.

I had a cell phone ticket that would have taken my license away. The court at first was unwilling to lower it. Napier got it reduced and managed to let me keep my license. They are the best!
