Daniel Harris Kovel

Thank you for taking the time to read about me. I tell anyone who will listen that I am passionate about representing other New York City solo-entrepreneurs, founders and freelancers. I am excited to have the opportunity to advance the goals of the most ambitious and creative business minds in the city.

I spent my entire career advocating for the people of New York and solving a wide array of legal issues. I began my career with The Legal Aid Society of New York, where I was a litigation attorney in the Civil Practice Division. I then spent time at two highly regarded boutique law firms in New York City, where I litigated claims including, but not limited to, violations of the wage and hour laws, the anti-discrimination and sexual harassment provisions of the New York City, State and Federal Human Rights Laws and the whistle-blower protection laws. I have been successful in recovering meaningful settlements for clients in many industries, including fine art and design, hospitality, advanced technology and finance. I has also trained forward-thinking New York City small businesses and a not-for-profit art organization in workplace sexual harassment prevention.

I am a proud alumnus of the University of Michigan and the Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law, where I currently serves as the Co-Director of the Cardozo Alumni Association Labor and Employment Law Section. I also co-authored an article regarding sexual harassment prevention that was published in Time magazine’s website, . I live in New York City with my wife and two children and relish every moment I get to spend with them!
