Top Family Lawyers in ZIP 11788 | 19 available

There is nothing more important in life than family and personal relationships. This is why divorce and family law are among the most emotionally charged areas of law. Such a personal practice area requires a representative who knows and understands what a client is going through. Attention to detail and a true understanding of a client's personality, mindset, and goals are important to any case, but particularly in divorce and family law. The legal system can often be an archaic and confusing setting for many litigants, especially when the most important thing in their lives is at stake; their family. We take a caring, understanding, but strong and tactful approach to divorce and family law that is not typically seen in Suffolk or Nassau counties. With our resources and an experienced team behind you, you can be assured that we will work our hardest to secure you a favorable outcome with professional, organized, and scholarly representation, while keeping you informed every step of the way.

I promise to give you my honest and realistic assessment of your situation and offer what I believe is the best legal and practical approach, drawing on my knowledge of the relevant law, and decades of experience with the procedures and personalities in the courtroom.. Since handling my own divorce thirty years ago, I have devoted my practice to matrimonial and family law on Long Island, representing business owners, executives, teachers, police officers, doctors, attorneys, homemakers, union members, and firefighters.  I have handled hundreds of divorce and family law cases, negotiating favorable settlements for most, and proceeding to trial when necessary, and have prevailed on numerous divorce, child support, and child custody appeals.. I was born and raised on Long Island.  I graduated from Half Hollow Hills High School, and earned my undergraduate degree, cum laude, in 1986 from SUNY Stony Brook.  I attended Hofstra University School of Law, where I was editor of the Hofstra Environmental Law Digest, and earned my law degree in 1989.  I was admitted to the New York Bar in 1990, and started my own practice in 1992.
