Virtual Consultation Available
I bring more than 25 years of experience in mediation and litigation in New York courts to help people reduce costs and resolve conflicts with dignity.
People going through a divorce, separation or another legal process are often surprised by the cost of the process, both financially and emotionally. They want a fair and cost-effective result that addresses their concerns and gives them closure.
Every case is different. I and members of my law firm team use our initial meeting to listen and understand your specific concerns. Once we have the facts, we can work toward the process that will work best for your situation. Our goal in any dispute is to help resolve it with dignity, whether that is through mediation, collaborative law, negotiation or unbundled legal services, - a unique and cost-effective approach that provides legal asisstance to people who choose to represent themselves.
My law firm's practice focuses on matrimonial and family law, divorce, prenuptial agreements and business mediation and collaborative divorce with an ancillary general practice, which includes residential real estate, wills, trusts and estates.
I am fluent in Russian and frequently address legal needs of the Russian Community in New York.
I am an Advanced Mediator and Founding Member of the Association of Professional Family Mediators and a member and former president of the Family and Divorce Mediation Council of Greater New York.
I am also an Advanced Practitioner member of Association for Conflict Resolution, member of the New York Association of Collaborative Professionals, of the Professional Responsibility Committee and of the Small Law Firms’ Committee at the New York City Bar Association. I am admitted to the Bars of the States of New York and New Jersey and to the Supreme Court of the United States.

Custody/Visitation Modification Consultations
I did not have the resources to hire an attorney for representation in a move to modify custody and support orders in a NY Family Court. A friend gave me Alla's name and I contacted her for a consultation to help me with self-representation. The thing I noticed immediately after the first meeting ...
"Alla is a top-notch family attorney. She is a zealous advocate for her clients and well respected in the legal community."
"I have had the pleasure of working with Ms. Roytberg on numerous occasions. She is a top flight attorney and extremely knowledgeable in the family law/matrimonial arena. Ms. Roytberg is wonderful at attempting to find a solution and work through the mediation process rather than force her clients into the lengthy and expensive matrimonial litigation. But when mediation either fails or is not an option, Ms. Roytberg is a forceful and effective advocate for her client. It is without any hestiancy that i endorse Alla Roytberg and any client that retains her services will be represented by one of the best lawyers."
"I endorse this lawyer. Alla has been both cocounsel and my personal attorney. I can’t say enough good things about her. She’s bright, insightful, compassionate, tough, diligent, professional and capable. If you have a family law matter, she’s your choice. Scott Fenstermaker"
"I endorse this lawyer. I send all of my New York divorce and famly-related matters to Alla. Her combination of compassion for clients' concerns and knowledge of the laws regarding family matters is extraordinary. Additionally, her work in the field of mediation and alternative dispute resolution has been recognized by her peers and further enhances her abilities to obtain the proper outcome for her clients."
