I limit my practice to employment law. Since 2011 I have been Westchester County based helping both employees and small businesses. Tarrytown is a great place to serve both Manhattan and Upstate New York. We look for creative ways to resolve employment disputes outside the courthouse although sometimes filing is the only choice. Time will tell which venue is best. Keeping up with the whirlwind of changes at both the federal and state levels in New York demands ongoing education beyond AI. Twenty plus years of exclusive labor and employment law matter resolutions is priceless.
