Free Consultation
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.

Resolved Traffic violation
He helped me resolve 2 traffic tickets i got on the same day. He got the charges and fines reduced. The best part was from the very first call he was upfront about what his action plan is and set the expectations straight. It was a seamless experience.
