Lawyer Biography

With more than 25 years of experience in mediation and litigation in New York courts, I help individuals resolve disputes efficiently, reduce costs, and move forward with dignity.

Legal processes such as divorce or separation often come with unexpected financial and emotional strain. Most people seek a fair, practical resolution that addresses their concerns while allowing them to achieve closure.

Because every situation is unique, my team and I begin with an initial consultation focused on listening carefully and understanding your specific needs. From there, we tailor an approach that best suits your circumstances—whether through mediation, collaborative law, negotiation, or unbundled legal services. This flexible, cost-effective option allows clients to receive targeted legal support while representing themselves.

Our firm concentrates on matrimonial and family law, including divorce, prenuptial agreements, business mediation, and collaborative divorce. We also maintain a general practice covering residential real estate, wills, trusts, and estates.

Fluent in Russian, I regularly assist members of New York’s Russian-speaking community with their legal needs.

I am an Advanced Mediator and a Founding Member of the Association of Professional Family Mediators, as well as a member and former president of the Family and Divorce Mediation Council of Greater New York. Additionally, I am an Advanced Practitioner member of the Association for Conflict Resolution, a member of the New York Association of Collaborative Professionals, and actively involved in the Professional Responsibility Committee and the Small Law Firms’ Committee at the New York City Bar Association.

I am admitted to practice in the States of New York and New Jersey, as well as before the Supreme Court of the United States.
