I have spent most of my practice in the Matrimonial and Family Law areas.  I became an Attorney to help people access their rights and protections under the law.  I use this knowledge as a mediator Long Island families can turn to at a fragile and uncertain time.  The courtroom is not the best place to address these most personal matters. 

Litigation exhausts resources of all kinds, especially time and money.  It also pits one party against the other rather than focusing on individual positions rather than common goals.  It always makes sense to attempt settlement negotiation outside of the courtroom, especially in light of the fact that most cases resolve by settlement eventually anyway.

I  represent my clients in a way that empowers them to create their own personalized solutions without the acrimony of litigation.  By offering Long Island divorce mediation,  I help clients avoid the added stress and expense of litigation.  Your private negotiations are focused on resolving your personal issues.  

As a neutral mediator, I will guide you to reach a fair and impartial settlement agreement.  I am specially trained to help you navigate through your negotiations regardless of the level of conflict.  

As a consulting divorce attorney, I will offer legal advice and information while you are mediating with another professional.  I will help you discover favorable options to include in your agreement. I will also review and revise drafts of your agreement as needed to reach a final resolution that encompasses your individual requirements.

As a settlement advocate, I will negotiate outside of court focusing on your goals and concerns.  I coordinate all the information necessary to reach an agreement that meets your goals and addresses all of your concerns.
