Biography
My law practice can be fairly characterized as "Community Law." The client who first came to me regarding a traffic ticket, I may also represent in a real estate transaction, by incorporating their business, defending them in a civil lawsuit, preparing their Will, or guiding them through bankruptcy.
I take every client's need very seriously and I handle each matter with the greatest skill and professionalism.

Brian Michael Higbie - Excellent Lawyer
I come from a family of top lawyers in the Boston area, but when I needed a lawyer for some work regarding laws specific to New York, I called Brian Higbie (though I'm sure his work is not limited to just the New York area).
