General Info

At Ronald E. Stiskin & Associates, the areas of law we practice are not just our business; they’re our passion. Why? Because we have walked in your shoes. Special Education Law; Our special education lawyers collectively have decades of experience working in and navigating the New York City and State special education systems. We understand how parents need to advocate for their children. And when you need help to advocate effectively for your child, you want the most skilled and knowledgeable counselor at your side. Special Needs Planning; When you have a child, parent, or other family member with special needs, you also need to plan for the long term. We have personal experience in long-term planning for a disabled child. We know the peace of mind that comes from knowing that your child’s or other loved one’s future is provided for, even when you are no longer here to look after their needs yourself. Estate Planning, Wills & Trusts; Will aging family members get the long-term care they need when they need it? Will their interests be protected should they become unable to manage their own affairs? Will their wishes for the disposition of their property be carried out? Will their assets be protected in the long term? These are issues we have dealt with personally and professionally. Disabilities; If someone you love is disabled, or if you become disabled yourself, various legal issues can arise. Federal and State civil rights laws protect the interests of the disabled in a number of ways. A knowledgeable attorney can help ensure that the disabled person is protected from discrimination in employment and housing, is properly cared for (including plans for future care), and receives all the services and benefits to which he or she is entitled.
