About Dennis
Biography
I proudly live and work on Long Island's east end and it is my passion and goal to offer exceptional local legal representation without the need to hire an attorney on Broadway or Lexington Avenue.
I focus my practice on real estate brokerage litigation with a secondary focus on personal injury. Lieb at Law, P.C. is outside counsel for New York's largest real estate brokerage and we are tasked with ensuring compliance with New York's complicated real estate license law
In my spare time I am an active member in the Sports Car Club of America. I also enjoy sailing on the Great South Bay.
