Partner, Wisselman Harounian Family Law, well respected family law firm since 1976. I offer free consultations.. Compromise does not necessarily equate to surrender.  All too frequently, I have to remind clients that compromising on an issue means giving in a little on some issues to gain a little on others.  The negotiation process is a dance of give and take and should result in a final agreement that is acceptable to both parties, each having compromised on issues less important to them to gain on the more important issues.  As a matrimonial and family law attorney, I believe this is the most effective way to guide my clients through a very troublesome time in their life in order that they can more quickly put it behind them.. On the other hand, some cases can't be settled, sometimes because of the difficulty in reaching a compromise, or for other reasons.  Nothing can take the place of a tough litigator fighting for your rights.

My name is Rich Feinsilver, and I’ve been in private practice for over 30 years. Before that, I spent over 10 years in the financial services industry, focusing on consumer credit and real estate financing. This “real-world” experience gives me a unique and well-rounded perspective when it comes to practicing bankruptcy law to help you with your financial problems.. During my tenure as a bankruptcy lawyer in New York and Long Island, I have helped over 7,500 clients with consumer and business bankruptcy cases.. Professional Qualifications. I graduated from St. Johns University in 1979 with a Bachelor of Arts, and went on to get my law degree at New York Law School in 1983. I’m a member of the New York State, Nassau County and Queens County Bar Associations and am admitted to practice law in the State of New of York and before the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York.. I have served as a lecturer and commentator on the topics of consumer bankruptcy and real estate law for the National Business Institute (a leading continuing legal education provider) as well as a contributor to the Wall Street Journal, the New York Law Journal , the National Law Journal and Newsday.. In addition, each year since 2007, I have received a Peer Attorney Rating of AV (highest)  from Martindale-Hubbell.  This is based upon an independent polling of attorneys by Martindale-Hubbell (not a paid advertisement).  I have also been named as a Top Legal Eagle for each year from 2010 to 2020 in Long Island Pulse Magazine.. What Makes Me Different From The Others? – Bigger is Not Necessarily Better. Over the past 30+ years, I have prided myself on providing each and every client with prompt, personal attention to their needs.   I understand that each client’s situation is different as well as their goals and asperations.  In each consultation, we will work together to get to the heart of the matter – that sequence of events that caused you to contact a bankruptcy lawyer as well as what may be the best course of action to take to move forward.. Let’s be honest – no one wants to file for bankruptcy.  No one wants to pick up the phone and meet with a bankruptcy attorney.  The issue is, once you do, you want to know that there is someone on the other end who will be on your side.   In addition, you want someone who is going to listen to you.  Many of the larger bankruptcy firms will ask you to fill out a series of forms (which most of them never read) , meet with you for 3-5 minutes and then hand you off to a paralegal or legal assistant to complete the paperwork.  THIS IS NOT WHAT I AM ABOUT…. When you meet with me, there are no pre-printed forms to fill out - no questionairres.  I want to hear it directly from you.  During our initial consultation, I will ask you a series of questions that will enable me to “paint a financial picture”  of your present situation and immediately begin to focus on your needs to determine if filing bankruptcy is the way to go.. Many times, bankruptcy may not be the best solution.  The one thing that I can tell you at the onset is that I will be brutally honest and straight forward.  When you reach the point that you need to reach out to a bankrupycy lawyer, you need straight answers.  I will do my best to give those answers to you.  You may not always be pleased with what you may hear, but I believe that each client needs to come out of a consultation with a real assessment of their situation as well as an outline of the options that are available to them.    This is what make me different from the ”bankruptcy centers”….    I look forward to hearing from you.

Frank Michael Paladino is an attorney who provides legal services in Real Estate, Bankruptcy & Debt and General Practice

For over 25 years, my legal career has been focused exclusively in the area of Divorce and Family Law. I represent clients in all aspects of divorce and family law matters, including divorce, custody, parenting schedules, support, equitable distribution, pre- and postnuptial agreements, and post-judgment proceedings.Sadly, the word "divorce" has become synonymous with "destruction." But it does not have to be that way. I believe that divorce can and should be a process of restructuring the financial and parental aspects of a family unit in the most cost effective way with the least amount of emotional distress as possible. To that end, my practice focuses on collaborative divorce, mediation, and negotiated settlement in litigated matrimonial cases as highly effective alternatives to adversarial litigation. My goal is to ensure that my client's interests are heard, understood and acknowledged so that the work of restructuring can occur and a fair settlement can be reached as early as possible. A strong advocate for families, I am certified in mediation from the Ackerman Institute for the Family and highly trained in Collaborative Interdisciplinary Practice from the New York Association of Collaborative Professionals. I am also a Special Master for the Nassau County Supreme Court, appointed by Judges to assist in resolving highly contentious matrimonial cases before trial.In addition to my professional legal experience, I am active in fundraising, philanthropy and community work through several organizations, including Girls Inc., Long Island, The Junior Welfare League of Huntington, The Safe Center, Hofstra University’s Women in Leadership Initiative, and the Energeia Partnership at Molloy College.
