Biography
Although my firm practices in several different fields of law, my expertise is primarily in Mortgage Foreclosure Defense,Divorce & Family Law, Bankruptcy, and Mortgage loan modification. In terms of divorce law, I have a unique prospective from both my personal and professional experience that few other attorneys can match. To me, each case is personal, each client is a person, never just a file number.

Legal Answers
- Q. Is foreclosure legal after tax certificate redemption before filing?

With modern technology, you can be represented by any high-quality attorney in New Jersey irrespective of geography.

- Q. How to settle deceased brother's credit card debt in NJ with no will?
- A: I am sorry that you lost your brother. Probate is not a simple process and you are emotionally involved and not a trained attorney. They advise attorneys not to represent themselves.
