Desc. of Practice: My practice is almost entirely "ADR", mediation in particular. Although most of my mediation practice is in family and divorce cases, I also mediate various other sorts of disputes, including: small businesses, community, landlord-tenant and employment disputes. As an attorney, I also take on uncontested matrimonial cases in negotiations. My goal is to help the clients (and myself) stay out of the courts, thereby minimizing the family's emotional and financial costs. I have also worked with Batei Dinim (Jewish Courts) assisting them in their divorce cases. My main offices are in Riverdale (Bronx) and Manhattan, New York, but have offices available to meeet mediation clients (depending on need) in New Jersey, Brooklyn and Queens. For more information about my mediation services, feel free to contact me for a free brochure.
