Cercone Law PLLC is a Buffalo, New York law firm built around three things: contract and commercial litigation for small and mid-sized business owners, private criminal defense representation in felony and misdemeanor matters, and family court representation. Founded by Jake Cercone, a back-to-back Super Lawyers Rising Stars honoree, the firm combines an old-school work ethic and hands-on client service with a modern, practical approach to litigation strategy.
Jake works closely with each client to understand what's actually at stake — a contract dispute that could threaten a growing business, a criminal charge that could affect a client's future, or a family court matter that touches everything a client cares about — and builds a strategy around that, not a one-size-fits-all playbook. He currently serves as Director of the Bar Association of Erie County and is licensed to practice throughout New York State.
Cercone Law PLLC accepts a limited number of new matters at a time so that every client gets direct, responsive access to their attorney throughout their case, and offers payment plans to make representation more accessible. If you're facing a business dispute, a criminal charge, or a family court matter in the Buffalo area, contact Cercone Law PLLC to schedule a consultation.
