Andrew Warshawer

Andrew is an experienced trial lawyer, having served at the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office for over 18 years – as both a senior prosecutor and as Deputy Chief of the Trial Division, responsible for supervising two hundred and fifty Assistant District Attorney’s at one of the largest prosecutor’s offices in the country.  He has spent his career pursuing justice for victims and accountability for those who have done them wrong.  Andrew has investigated and tried dozens of cases to jury verdict, ranging from criminal conspiracies and homicides to tenant abuse and fraud, and supervised hundreds of trials of all kinds.

Over the last several years, Andrew has also taught trial advocacy techniques to a variety of audiences and given seminars to non-legal professionals on preparing to testify effectively as witnesses in court.

Andrew serves on the New York City Bar Association's Committee on Artificial Intelligence and Privacy, where he co-chairs the subcommittee on AI and Civil Liberties. In that role, he addresses a range of issues concerning plaintiffs' use of AI, both in coordination with counsel and before representation begins. These include the discovery and privilege implications that arise when a prospective client researches their case before reaching out to a lawyer. The subcommittee's work also extends to AI issues in criminal law.

Prior to joining The Beasley Firm, Andrew was the lead attorney on investigation and prosecution of what was at the time the largest gang case in the country’s history.  That case, prosecuted under a novel legal theory using cutting edge investigative and prosecutorial techniques, helped end a decades long gang war and dramatically improved public safety – and served as a model for other similarly successful cases nationwide.

At The Beasley Firm, Andrew’s practice now includes complex civil litigation, focusing on medical and professional malpractice, catastrophic personal injury, defamation, and wrongful prosecution actions.
