I’m a New York-based attorney with over 20 years of experience, working at the intersection of litigation and transactional law. I help individuals and businesses create solid legal documents — prenups, contracts, leases, and more — with an eye toward clarity, fairness, and long-term protection. As a litigator, I’ve seen firsthand how vague or one-sided agreements can lead to unnecessary disputes, court battles, and financial stress. That perspective shapes the way I draft and review documents: I build them to stand up, not just get signed. Whether you’re preparing for marriage, launching a business, or resolving a dispute, I bring a practical, client-first approach rooted in legal insight and lived experience. Clients appreciate that I explain the law in plain language, respect their time, and tailor every solution to fit their goals — not just the paperwork. Let’s make sure you’re protected — not just on paper, but in real life.
