About Marc
Biography
I have been helping people for over 40 years to move from an unhappy marriage to new and better horizons.
Using a “team approach” my paralegal and I will help you through your divorce process with outstanding service and reliable legal support.
We have attended several weddings when our clients have remarried and have been told many times that my firm truly is "family law with a heart."
I have been in practice since 1973 and I have concentrated my practice to Matrimonial/Family Law. I am a member of the New York State Bar, Federal Bar, American Bar, District of Columbia Bar and Nassau Bar, as well as the Matrimonial Committees of the State of New York and the County of Nassau. I served as a panelist on the Early Neutral Evaluation Panel and I am a member of the Nassau County Arbitration panel for Fee Disputes. I am admitted to the Federal Court of the Southern and Eastern Districts of the State of New York, the Court of Military Appeals, and the United States Supreme Court.
I graduated from Washington College of Law at AmericanUniversity in Washington, DC. I began my career as an attorney with the United States Air Force as a Base Assistant Staff Judge Advocate serving first at McConnell Air Force Base and then in Ankara, Turkey. I wrote two Preventive Law publication handbooks which were used at each military base.
