Family Law

• Divorce
  My approach to divorce and family law in general is to be practical, allowing clients to spend the least amount of money to achieve the best possible outcome. Settlements can be reached even in the most difficult cases, which is always the wisest decision when the parties have children. Matters involving significant assets, high income, or high profile clients benefit the most from this approach, especially when it involves businesses that prefer to keep their matters as private and confidential as possible. I am an experienced, skilled negotiator in business, civil matters, real estate deals and divorce settlements. My desire to settle matters is never to be mistaken for weakness. It is a sincere attempt to do what is best for my clients. In those cases where the other party is wholly unreasonable or resistant, I will not hesitate to litigate when necessary. My years of litigation experience will be apparent in those situations.
• Child Support
  Family Law and Divorce: From marital property division to child custody, child support or alimony, we will help you with every aspect of your divorce. We also handle post-divorce modifications and enforcement, domestic violence issues, and restraining orders.
• Child Custody and Visitation
• Adoption
• Spousal Support
  I represent clients in family cases all over the State of New Jersey; however, my family practice is concentrated in Ocean County. Litigants and attorneys will discover that there are significant deviations in practice from county to county. My regular appearances in Ocean County give me the opportunity to know the judges in the county and through this experience I can guide my clients accordingly. For example, there may be particular judges that are more generous in awarding alimony and that will have an impact on the risk factor analysis of the case.

Health Law

• Personal Injury
  You should avoid a trial if possible. Unlike a personal injury suit where one side can be a winner and the other a loser, family court is very different. No one wins. A judge usually will give some favorable decisions to one party, and some to the other.
• Medical Malpractice
  I will never profess to be an expert in everything, nor will I take on matters in any area of law outside of my direct expertise. In my 15 years of practice, I have built relationships with attorneys who are experts in their field. For example, one of my referral clients had been turned down by every attorney with whom they had consulted regarding a medical malpractice claim for their son. Drawing on my vast network of experts, I was able to match them with a firm that ultimately obtained a $1.7million recovery which was paid and received. When I refer out clients, I remain available to monitor progress and advise when necessary. My network of subject matter experts are industry leaders in the following areas...
• Dog Bites

Trusts and Estates

• Power of Attorney
