"Litigator": The meanest kind of lawyer.
When I was nine my aunt told me I should be a lawyer when I grew up because I argued about everything, really, really well. That's when I learned I could make a living doing what I loved: winning arguments. After graduating from Columbia University, New York City's only Ivy League school I went on to Fordham Law. Fordham was the only law school ranked in the top twenty-five nationwide that offered a night program in New York. Since I was working full time to pay my own way, Fordham's top tier night division was perfect for me.
After two years working at different firms, gaining experience in multiple areas of legal practice I hit the mother lode. I got a full time job working for one of the best litigators in New York City (which made him one of the best in the country). Over the next six years, this incredible lawyer, who became my friend and mentor, taught me how to be the best litigator I could be. Since then I've used the foundation he helped me build to hone my skills as a counselor and advocate. Whether counseling clients, arguing motions and appeals or, persuading a jury to find in my client's favor at trial, I've spent the next two decades becoming a top tier litigation attorney. Now, I put those skills and experience to work for individuals, businesses and other organizations in state and federal courts throughout New York state. And I can do the same for you.

Free Consultation
It's rarely good news when you need a lawyer but, as I tell my kids, I may not be able to solve your problem but I can almost always make it better. The same is true regarding your need for sage legal counsel or aggressive advocacy. If you need a litigator because you've been injured in an accident, your mom is being abused in a nursing home, your partner is cheating you out of your share of the business or you're being sued in Federal Court for violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act (RICO). If I can't help you, I probably know someone who can, whether that's another fantastic lawyer in my firm, or a colleague elsewhere. I'm more than happy to discuss your situation and do whatever I can to guide you in the right direction, at no cost to you. -
Contingent Fees
Most legal matters aren't just stressful and filled with risk, they're also expensive. We understand that most people can't afford to pay for the best legal representation available and, we don't come cheap. That's why we do our best to find a way to be compensated out of the money we recover for you. Such "contingency fee" arrangements only apply to cases in which the goal is to recovery money damages and, the other side has enough insurance or personal resources to pay, whether to settle the case or after we win at trial.

- Q. Is my employer required to pay moving fees to return equipment I let them?
- A: Thank you for reaching out to us regarding the legal issue your facing.
As I understand it there is no agreement in place regarding the equipment. And you voluntarily provided it for use in the course of your employment and your employer's business. Under these circumstances, it's likely you will be unable to force your former employer to send the equipment t to you. In all likelihood, you will have to pay to have it shipped to you or have to go pick it up yourself.
Please let me know if there is something else with which I can help you.

- Q. Stored friend's box of things in storage unit free as a favor, but now lost, never told what is inside. What is she owed
- A: The fifth girl is unlikely to prevail on a claim for damages. She chose to "bail" her box to the 4th girl. This means to temporarily put it into her possession. However, the 4th girl wasn't compensated for the bailment nor is she a professional in the practice, such as a car mechanic to whom you bail your vehicle to make repairs. And even if she were to prevail on fault, which is all but impossible, I don't see how she can prove what was in the box to establish damages.
The only person at any risk at all is likely the 4th girl and that risk is tiny. Your daughter and the other two girls are at even less risk.
