PRACTICE/ORGANIZATION DESCRIPTION A short summary of my qualifications: I served as counsel for New York City Children’s Services for approximately two years. During that time, I was responsible for a high volume caseload, from inception to conclusion. While representing New York State I ran the gambit of hearings (pre and post dispositional), motion practice, trial procedure, and appealable issues. Currently, I am a solo practitioner and member of the Assigned Counsel Panel for the Second Department Appellate Division. In addition to Article 10 proceedings, I represent clients in custody, child support, juvenile delinquency, termination of parental rights and visitation cases. Lastly, I have experience and a substantial working knowledge of Administrative law. In particular, claims brought against New York City and New York State under 19 NYCRR Part 400 concerning unemployment insurance. Interests: Constitutional Law and Appellate practice: In particular, the balance between child protection and liberty interests afforded protection under the U.S. Constitution. http://www.abajournal.com/blawg/New_York_legal_updates_and_opinions_forum/ EDUCATION University of Miami School of Law PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS & MEMBERSHIPS New York County Lawyers Association: Member of: - Civil Rights/Liberties committee **Subcomittee investigating constitutionality of proposed amendment on cyberbullying in New York State and the free speech implications ** - Small firms/Solo practictioner committee - Family court and child welfare committee -Young Lawyers Association, American Bar Association (Member: Young Lawyer's Division), Brooklyn Bar Association, New York City Bar Association (Member of Young Lawyers Connect Section), New York State Bar Association (Young Lawyers Division), Queens Bar Association, ACLU, NYYRC.
