THE ABSOLUTE BEST!
I don't know what I would do without David I. Grauer, Esq. He represented me in my divorce, which stalled many, many times over the years.

Divorce lawyer
Well, I have been separated for over a year and a half and use another lawyer for that period of time whom didn’t take care or take attention to my case I had to seek other counsel In finding David he was very knowledgeable and took the times to
"I endorse this lawyer. He is very professional, thoughtful and is creative in finding solutions for a family during a difficult time."
"I just finished a highly contentious divorce action with Mr. Grauer and we were able to reach a positive outcome for both of our clients by seeking opportunities for settlement that were in the best interest of the parties. He worked very hard for his client and as a result the case was settled without going to Court saving both clients substantial time and money. He was always responsive to my request to discuss settlement terms and to ensure each party had an opportunity to offer his or her concerns. Any client that is represented by Mr. Grauer can feel confident he will be a strong advocate for their rights and well being."
"I worked with David recently on a litigated divorce which resulted in a settlement. I also worked on David many years ago when I first started practicing in Westchester in the 1980's. David is a strong advocate for his clients. He works hard to balance advocacy with the need to educate his clients concerning the importance of reaching a cost effective resolution of issues. We were able to work out a comprehensive settlement for our clients in an emotionally charged situation, in part due our combined efforts to find options and alternatives that worked for these clients."
"I endorse this lawyer. David is a strong advocate for his clients. He has many years of litigation experience including trials and appeals in divorce cases. David is also ethical and from a good family; his father is a rabbi. Divorce clients who need a lawyer, who is highly competent and ethical to fight for their rights, would be in good hands having David represent them."
"David Grauer, while a formidable adversary as a matrimonial attorney and litigator, is also someone with whom I have been able to negotiate a deal rather than have to go to trial. His many years of experience in this area of law have served him well in honing his impressive set of skills."
"David is an excellent lawyer. Very well prepared, detailed orientated, and a strong advocate for his clients. I respect and endorse this lawyer."
"David is a very experienced and dedicated attorney, concentrating in divorce and family law. Given the highly sensitive nature of these cases David deals with his clients with understanding, patience, professionalism and a great deal of skill."
