Our Attorneys

Daryl Brautigam limits his practice to civil and criminal litigation. He has tried more than 50 cases to a verdict in criminal, civil, and personal injury cases. He has negotiated multiple six and seven figure settlements on behalf of injured clients and has extensive trial experience. He is a 1981 Graduate of Cornell Law School and a 1977 Graduate of Houghton College. He is an avid runner, cyclist and cross country skier in his spare time, a devoted leader in Christ Community Church and a passionate and involved grandfather to his six wonderful grandchildren.

Andrew Brautigam focuses his practice on criminal and civil litigation.  He has extensive experience representing criminal defendants in both State and Federal Court. His criminal defense practice spans the entire spectrum of criminal law: speeding tickets and other traffic law violations; misdemeanor and felony charges in New York State courts; and Federal criminal charges, not only negotiating appropriate settlements, but also trying cases to a verdict. He is a 2011 Graduate of the West Virginia University College of Law, and a 2005 Graduate of Houghton College. He has three active children, a wonderful wife, and can be found passionately coaching his kid's soccer teams, running, riding a bicycle or serving Christ Community Church by playing his guitar and leading the worship team in his precious hours out of the office.

Sharon Brautigam, after spending 40 years assisting her clients with estate planning, estates, small business formation and advice and real estate purchases and sales, is retired from the active practice of law. She is currently associated with the firm in an “of counsel” role, working on a very limited part basis. She graduated from Cornell Law School in 1982 after graduating from Houghton College in 1978. She values serving in our community, including serving as a director of Lake Shore Savings Bank since 2004 and serving as a trustee and playing the keyboard at Christ Community Church. She also enjoys walking and working out on her elliptical, traveling with her husband, Daryl Brautigam, and, most of all, spending time with her family, including three grown children (yes, including Andrew Brautigam) and six beloved grandchildren..
