David S. Dikman has been practicing law since 1987, first honing investigative and trial skills for nine years at the Queens County District Attorney’s Office, where he became Deputy Chief of Homicide Investigations before leaving for private practice. As a trial prosecutor, he successfully concluded with convictions in many homicide and major offense cases. He has been a member of the firm since August 1995, focusing primarily in the areas of Matrimonial & Family Law. David also represents clients in Criminal Court, defending their rights using his Criminal Law knowledge and skills when domestic violence issues result in their arrest and prosecution. As a divorce lawyer, Mr. Dikman is acutely aware of how the issues in Criminal Court can spill over and affect divorce and child custody disputes.
In private practice, Mr. Dikman is proud to estimate he has settled and resolved well more than 95% of client matters without a trial or the associated cost, expense, and uncertainty. For those cases in which trial cannot be reasonably avoided, his successful advocacy skills have established his reputation and led other lawyers, judges, child support magistrates, and other professionals to seek his services.
