Practice Areas
-
Our litigation team represents plaintiffs and defendants across complex contractual, commercial, and property disputes. With extensive experience before New York state and federal courts, we are known for sharp pre-trial motion practice and formidable trial advocacy. We build trial-ready cases from day one, giving our clients the leverage necessary to extract favorable early settlements or prevail at verdict.
-
Healthcare operations in New York navigate one of the nation's most intricate regulatory landscapes. We serve as outside general counsel and specialized litigation counsel to licensed home care services agencies (LHCSAs), social adult day cares (SADCs), and other health-related providers. Our attorneys manage agency mergers and acquisitions, DOH regulatory compliance, labor audits, licensing disputes, and high-stakes administrative proceedings.
-
From emerging startups to established community enterprises, including medical practices, hospitality venues, service businesses, and non-profits, we protect business assets at every operational phase. Our work spans entity structuring, corporate governance, commercial leasing, partnership disputes, and risk-management protocols designed to prevent litigation before it arises.
-
We handle contentious employment disputes and compliance mandates under federal, New York State, and New York City labor laws. Representing both institutional employers and individual professionals, our practice covers wage-and-hour actions, restrictive covenants, executive severance, and discrimination or harassment claims before administrative agencies and courts.
-
We help individuals, families, and business owners protect accumulated wealth, provide for future generations, and navigate New York Surrogate’s Court with confidence. Our practice covers comprehensive estate plans—from foundational wills, healthcare proxies, and powers of attorney to sophisticated revocable, irrevocable, and asset protection trusts. When a loved one passes, we guide executors, trustees, and beneficiaries through probate, estate administration, and contested fiduciary litigation, ensuring intentions are honored and assets are preserved.
-
When catastrophic injuries or significant property damage occur, recovery demands disciplined investigation and aggressive representation. Our tort practice handles personal injury, construction site accidents, premises liability, product defect claims, and commercial torts such as defamation and intentional interference.
-
Led by former prosecutors, our defense practice leverages insider knowledge of government investigation tactics, prosecutorial discretion, and courtroom procedure. We defend individuals and corporate officers facing white-collar allegations, felony charges, and state misdemeanor offenses—safeguarding reputations and personal liberty through aggressive pre-indictment intervention and trial defense.
-
High-conflict family disputes require equal measures of discretion and decisive legal force. We guide clients through contested divorces, complex asset division, child custody determinations, and post-judgment enforcement, ensuring financial interests and parental rights are fully protected.
