About:
After graduating from Law School, I immediately opened a private practice in Garden City, NY, where I focus my energy and expertise on the issues of matrimonial law, father's rights,custody, visitation, re-location, child support, sexual abuse, and same sex marriages. My goal is to help my client's define their priorities and provide them with the ammunition to fight for them during the divorce process. It's important for clients to be able to function and thrive independently and to support themselves and their children while maintaining their current lifestyle. A successful divorce allows the client to maintain their dignity, integrity and well-being throughout the process.

"Terrible I gave Pat my retainer to help me with my divorce and nothing was ever done. Two years has past and she never communicates took $5000 as a retainer, never helped me and when I contacted her about other matters she blew me off told me to get a free lawyer from the court. She should be banned from practicing law."
