Family + Matrimonial Law in New York + New Jersey
Caring, compassionate and experienced legal advocacy.
My practice focuses exclusively on family and matrimonial law. Having litigated divorce and family law matters for many years, I have extensive experience working with clients in crisis and in high-conflict matters, including domestic violence.
Family + Matrimonial Law
Family law and Divorce issues are notoriously emotional for the parties and the children involved. The process can take too long and can cost too much. In these tough economic times, less expensive, less adversarial, less traumatic, and more efficient solutions are essential.
Litigation + Alternative Dispute Resolution
My experience litigating complex cases enables me to bring strong client advocacy to negotiations and the courtroom. My commitment to resolving family law issues in an amicable and respectful way serves clients who choose to stay out of court.

“Pets are more than property”
I was fortunate to represent the Plaintiff in the landmark Manhattan case, Travis v. Murray, 977 N.Y.S.2d 621 (Sup. Ct. New York Cty. 2013), establishing that pets are more than property in a matrimonial matter. Several Courts have since followed Judge Cooper's "best for all concerned" standard and as the law on pet custody has evolved, some have moved toward allowing "co-parenting" the family pet.
