I am the bridge between New York and Florida, maintaining offices in Long Island and Fort Lauderdale. My areas of expertise include: Estate planning services tailored for residents of both states, particularly those considering a change of residence; estate administration in New York and Florida, specializing in ancillary administrations for individuals with properties in either or both states; real estate transactions in both states, particularly assisting New Yorkers in property dealings in Florida. Additionally, I offer legal services in litigation and small business law. With over 25 years of legal experience in Florida and eight years in New York, my firm is dedicated to providing compassionate service focused on achieving results while minimizing costs for clients.
