Finding effective solutions to legal issues in New Jersey

10+ Years of Experience

I am a passionate attorney that seeks to fight for my clients’ interests all the while trying to resolve issues as fast and effectively as possible. There is no better feeling than winning a case for a client whether in divorce court, criminal court or civil court. I like to walk the streets I serve and see my clients who salute me for the work I did for them and build long term relationships. Our aim is to win for our clients and to explain the best way to achieve realistic goals. I have been living in Jersey City for approximately 10 years and have been practicing law in Jersey City, Newark and throughout New Jersey for numerous years. Our main practice areas include: family law, divorce, personal injury, truck accidents, car accidents, pedestrian accidents, passenger injuries, child custody, and domestic violence disputes and crimes associated with these disputes. Prior to opening up my law practice I worked in various business and finance roles in Manhattan.
