After graduation from St John's Law School in Queens, NY I was admitted to the NJ bar in December 1985 and the NYS Bar in April 1986. I worked at Snitow & Pauley, P.C., in NYC where I was an associate. We worked on complex civil litigation matters and business transactions. Thereafter I opend my own practice in 1989 and in 2008 I formed a partnership with Mitchell Shpelfogel. My NY office is located in Brooklyn where I was born and raised. I also have an office in Basking Ridge , NJ.
