Areas of Practice: 40% Divorce and Separation, 30% child custody, 20% criminal defense, and 10% appeals. This is in general. I am a litigator. I do almost all areas of litigation. I seem to be the kind of person that people either really like or really don't like as you can see from the reviews. I am not a therapist nor a best friend. I will not tell you what you want to hear to make you happy, nor will I keep you case going by telling you what you want to hear as I bill by the hour. I do my best to be honest about your likely outcome and bring about a resolution in a reasonable time. Sometimes people insist on litigating a losing case. I will do it, my clients are the boss, but it is always a good idea to take the legal advice you are paying for. I take my responsibilities very, very seriously. One of them is to tell you the truth about your situation.

I have been a litigator for over twenty-five years.

I am AV rated by Martindale and Hubble, which is its highest rating. I have been named as one of the Best Lawyers in America each year since 2007 for my work in personal injury litigation, products liability and employment law. Likewise, and because I practice all over NYS, I have been included among the Best Lawyers in New York City, Central New York and Western New York. I have been repeatedly named as one of the top 50 attorneys in Upstate New York by SuperLawyers.com.I have had the pleasure of appearing before most of the appellate courts in NYS. I had the honor of making what was viewed as "new law" by the NY Law Journal when I represented a client before the Second Circuit Court of Appeals. I have earned several multiple multimillion dollar verdicts. Among those was the largest defamation verdict in our nation's history ($188 million), stemming from a case I tried in Brooklyn, NY. More recently, I have had great success representing pension funds relative to their losses stemming from the Madoff Ponzie scheme. In February of 2014, I represented an oil import company (on a contract claim) in a three-week trial in Houston, and I earned a judgment of $1.4 billion.I have appeared on the O'Reilly Factor and several television programs to discuss various legal issues. I take great pride in my work, and I thoroughly enjoy it.
