My Background and Training

I spent my first ten years in law at McCarter & English, LLP, a highly-respected  law firm in Newark, New Jersey.  I made partner in 2006 and received invaluable expertise in working with large corporate entities and employers.  I started my own practice in 2008 to have the opportunity to work with individuals and small businesses, as well as participate in civic groups and charitable endeavors.  I have now expanded my practice areas, depth of practice and client base, while becoming active in my community in Manhattan.

 With experience at a major firm representing corporate clients, I am able to layer insight into the perspectives of my clients, and bring a deeper appreciation of legal needs and expense concerns in the current economic environment.  I have built a successful practice, representing clients in all matters of commercial and employment litigation.  Dedicated to giving one-on-one attention, I am committed to understanding and investigating claims, diligently mindful of overall concerns and goals.

 My extensive experience has prepared me for the most difficult and challenging cases, whether an employment matter, a bitter family business dispute, or a corporate competition fight.  I am not intimidated by fierce advocates, and I work hard to advance my clients’ interests and positions.
