I come from a diverse background in customer-facing industries, which has shaped my approach to legal representation. I prioritize clear communication and strong working relationships with all my clients. I recognize that legal issues are often deeply personal, and I am committed to providing not only skilled advocacy but also practical solutions that are tailored to the unique needs of each client.
Being an immigrant three times over, I have firsthand insight into the challenges individuals face when navigating new legal and business landscapes. Raised in a community of entrepreneurs, I gained a deep understanding of the complexities involved in running a business. This background makes me a trusted advisor to business owners seeking legal guidance. My practice areas include business law, divorce and family law, real estate transactions, and general counsel services, focusing on strategic planning and protecting my clients’ financial and personal interests.
Real estate is a critical sector of the U.S. economy and often intersects with business and family law. Whether I am assisting with business formation, handling complex divorces involving significant assets, or guiding clients through real estate transactions, I offer comprehensive legal support backed by my experience and a strong professional network.
Being fluent in French, Italian, Russian, German, and Spanish, I am well-equipped to serve a diverse clientele and provide legal services with cultural sensitivity and understanding.
For skilled legal counsel in business law, divorce, real estate, trust and estates, as well as general counsel services, you can contact me, Samuil Buschkin, for a consultation.

- A: While this response is not legal advice which would require more information from you and would be done with an attorney whom you have retained, here is a bit of guidance: In New Jersey, providing wine during private educational classes, even if not sold directly, likely requires an ABC permit. The Social Affair Permit applies to non-profits, so it may not be suitable for your for-profit classes. Since your business model is unique, consulting the NJ Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control is recommended to ensure compliance. They can clarify whether a specific license or exemption applies. You may also want legal guidance on navigating NJ’s alcohol laws. More info: njoag.gov.

Because your rights depend on the business structure and available evidence, you definitely need to consult a lawyer to assess your options and strategize ... Read More
- Q. Am I violating my separation agreement by giving a statement to Company A's legal team regarding events at Company B?
- A: I would certainly speak with an employment lawyer, if you cannot avoid rendering the statement. If in fact, you are under a contractual obligation to not divorce, confidential information and you end up doing so then you might be in violation of such obligations and subject to whatever penalties could be imposed. So I would certainly speak to a employment attorney because it's all about the detail details in particular about what type of information and the language.
