For over 35 years, I have been helping clients in both Nassau and Queens Counties primarily in the areas of family, divorce, and traffic matters. In these uncertain and difficult economic times, it is important to learn your legal rights. I have worked with clients facing these emotional issues and have obtained effective results for clients by providing aggressive representation in a cost-effective manner. Each client is entitled to indivudualized legal representation. Applying my experience in the legal profession to your unique set of facts and circumstances often provides a roadmap to help clients manage their expectations. Most of our clients come from referrals from satisfied clients. Our legal services are affordable and we accept most major credit cards and allow for payment plans on many legal matters. For your convenience, we offer some night and weekend appointments. We accept ZELLE, credit cards, check, and cash payments.

excellent family court lawyer
Mr. Scheinman has been my lawyer for four years now. I would not have kept him all this time if I wasnt 100% comfortable with him and trusted him fully. Many times I have had to let go and trust his experiance and knowledge and he has not failed us yet.
"I endorse this lawyer. He is among the most knowledgeable attorneys I have dealt with in my 37 years as a lawyer. He is a kind, patient and understanding person. In Divorce and Family law these traits often make the difference in the resolution of difficult and often sensitive matters. I highly recommend Attorney Scheinman."
"I endorse this lawyer. He is one of the most ethical, competent, thorough and professional attorneys I know. He treats his clients with dignity and respect. He is professional, courteous and efficient."
"Mr. Scheinman is an excellent attorney who fights hard for his clients. I have known him personally and professionally for nearly 20 years and can vouch for his legal skills in and out of the courtroom. I refer family law cases to him all of the time because I know that he'll always do his best, has reasonable fees and a ton of experience."
