Firm Profile
Report
Having received an award for Outstanding Academic Achievement by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, New York Chapter while in Law School, I did not end up practicing this area of law by accident and I think my clients recognize that.
I view my role as helping my clients understand what the legal system can and cannot do in resolving their disputes with their spouse or former spouse, ensuring that they obtain an equitable resolution of their dispute, and assisting them in dealing with the emotional turmoil that often accompanies a divorce or post divorce proceedings.

Alimony and Spousal Maintenance
Report
While in the past, awards of temporary maintenance were anchored to the actual reasonable needs of the spouse requesting maintenance, or to the parties pre-separation standard of living, the new legislation introduces a "formula" for determining the "presumptively correct" amount of temporary maintenance to be awarded by the Court.
Family Law
Report
Family Law refers to issues regarding divorce, distribution of marital property and marital debt, custody, visitation, relocation of children, child support, spousal support, and orders of protection, as well as issues relating to the modification of custody, visitation, child support, and spousal support.
Grounds For Divorce
Report
Recently, New York State became the last state in the country to adopt some form of "No Fault" Divorce. The amendment to the Domestic Relations Law further provides that a judgment of divorce cannot be granted unless and until all economic issues relating to property distribution, the payment or waiver of spousal support (eg. alimony/maintenance), child support, custody, visitation, and attorney's fees have been resolved by the parties.
