About Renata
Biography
I graduated from New York University and obtained my law degree from Cardozo Law School. I have dedicated my practice to the field of family law, including divorce, custody, child support, orders of protection, and any other matrimonial and family law related matters. I believe that my clients deserve an honest approach to their case, and should be kept informed of every aspect of their case so that they may make informed, intelligent decisions. I will fight for my clients, but will also help them reach amicable resolutions where appropriate and necessary. I believe in being available to my clients for advise, and pride myself on the personal, individualized attention I can devote to them.
