Your Trusted Legal Partner in Irvington, NY
As an attorney with decades of experience, I have dedicated my career to providing comprehensive legal solutions for small and mid-sized businesses, individuals, and creative professionals. After graduating from Columbia Law School as a Harlan Fiske Stone Scholar and working at prestigious firms like Davis Polk & Wardwell and Amster Rothstein & Ebenstein, I established my own practice in Irvington, New York, in 2009. My expertise spans business law, intellectual property, litigation, real estate, trusts and estates, and arts-related legal matters.I pride myself on offering personalized counsel grounded in practicality, whether advising on commercial contracts, resolving disputes, or protecting creative works. My deep ties to the Irvington community, including service on the Zoning Board of Appeals and Chamber of Commerce, inform my commitment to client-centered advocacy. With a track record of successful outcomes for clients ranging from biotech startups to bestselling authors, I combine big-firm experience with the accessibility and attention of a boutique practice.
