New York City Family Law Attorney

My law firm provides empathetic and practical family law services to clients throughout New York City. I offer extended hours by appointment, accept credit cards and can arrange payment plans if necessary. As an experienced lawyer, I am dedicated to finding the best possible resolution on behalf of my clients. Please contact my firm to schedule a consultation regarding any of the following family law matters.

  • Child Support I provide help to people with high-asset and complex child support concerns. This includes addressing support issues as they relate to college and private school tuition. Other issues I assist with include support enforcement and paternity.
  • Child Custody and Visitation My many years of experience working with children in the legal system has provided me with a wide base of knowledge about how the law affects parents and their children. I also provide assistance with issues involving grandparents' rights.
  • Uncontested Simple Divorce In an uncontested simple divorce, the parties are able to agree on all issues.
  • Contested Divorce In a contested divorce, the parties disagree on at least one of the issues. In many cases, they disagree on several.
  • I.D.V. Cases Prior to the establishment of Integrated Domestic Violence (I.D.V.) Courts, families would often need to appear in different courts for different issues. The establishment of I.D.V. courts allows for one judge to gain familiarity with each family's specific issues.
  • Domestic Violence I provide effective legal help to people who are victims of domestic violence as well as those who have been accused of domestic violence. I represent individuals in Criminal Court and Family Court.
  • Orders of Protection I help victims of domestic violence obtain orders of protection as well as provide defense to those who have been served orders of protection.
  • Child Neglect and Abuse My firm provides caring and effective legal services to parents who have been charged with child abuse and neglect.
  • Juvenile Delinquency I provide juvenile crime defense to minors in Family Court. I focus on rehabilitative efforts for juveniles charged with crimes such as robbery, assault and sex crimes.
