Thorough. Compassionate. Efficient.

Who Do I Advocate For?

I passionately advocate for clients who are navigating matrimonial, divorce, child custody, child support and spousal support matters.

From financial intricacies involving real estate, bank accounts, and retirement assets to sensitive issues surrounding child custody for both married and unmarried parents, I’m equipped to handle them all.

How Can I Make A Difference For You?

With a dedication to compassion and unmatched thoroughness, I intentionally manage a limited caseload to provide each client with my unwavering attention. I value precision and speed, ensuring your case progresses efficiently. My aim? To alleviate your stress by getting you through the legalities as professionally and promptly as possible.

A Track Record That Speaks For Itself

I’m proud to have been elected as a member of the executive committee on family law within the New York State Bar Association. This esteemed committee is composed of some of the top practitioners in the state and sits at the forefront of shaping and influencing the major legislative changes within matrimonial law.

Seeing as the presence of attorneys from New York City on this committee is particularly strong, I feel that it’s all the more essential for those of us from Western New York to have our voices heard. It is truly an honor for me to participate in this role, allowing me the opportunity to contribute to pivotal decisions that shape the legal landscape of family law in our state.

Some of my other accomplishments include: 

• Co-chair of the New York State Bar Association’s Child Custody Committee.
• Recipient of AVVO Client’s Choice Award, 2016 & 2017.

Who I Am

My approach to family law is founded on the knowledge that every case is unique. As such, I ask my clients the same fundamental question from the very beginning: “What are your goals?” This question forms the foundation for our legal strategy, guiding us on the type of work required, the strategy we employ, and the timeline necessary to achieve those objectives.

What’s more, I firmly believe in providing a clear and accurate assessment of your options, while avoiding empty promises or sugarcoating the truth. I find it to be my responsibility to offer clients a fair and pragmatic understanding of their situation, along with realistic approaches to help them attain the results they seek.

My firsthand experience with a prolonged divorce has fortified my drive to provide superior representation, especially when children’s well-being is at stake. This empathy, gained from my own personal experience, coupled with a fierce commitment to advocacy is my distinctive blend.

Why I Chose This Path

I became an attorney to help others and act as a voice for those who may feel voiceless. I decided to focus on family law because I saw a need for responsible handling in an area prone to ethical challenges.

Family law cases often involve attorneys who resort to prolonging conflicts, engaging in mudslinging, and fueling disputes. I recognize the potential for problems in this field and understand that an attorney’s approach could significantly impact the case’s outcome.

Today, I work in this field because I believe I can address these sensitive and complex cases with care and a strong moral compass.

My commitment is to uphold the ethical standards of the legal profession while fiercely championing my clients’ cause by providing practical and ethical solutions.

What Makes Me Stand Out

Two distinctive qualities set me apart in the realm of family law. First and foremost, I bring a high level of compassion to every client’s situation, recognizing that they are often going through one of the most challenging times in their lives. I understand the emotional and personal toll these circumstances can take, and I am dedicated to providing the support and empathy that my clients need.

Additionally, I’m a dedicated advocate. Many of the people who seek my assistance may not be used to asserting themselves or fighting for their rights. My clients know that with me by their side, they won’t be pushed over or bullied into an outcome that doesn’t serve their family’s best interests, they’ll have a legal partner who takes their case as seriously as they do.
