For more than a decade I represented low-income New Yorkers against criminal charges as a Staff Attorney with The Legal Aid Society. Now in private practice, I still devote a substantial portion of my work to representing those who cannot afford to hire a lawyer. I am committed to bringing excellence, compassion, and understanding to my representation of all my clients, regardless of income level. I am admitted to the bar in both New York and California, and am a member of the Kings County Criminal Bar Association, as well as the New York State and NationaI Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. I live in Brooklyn with my wife and daughters.
