My practice focuses on counseling clients in a wide array of transactions and litigation involving cooperatives, condominiums, and real estate developers.

I have extensive experience representing design professionals, developers, and cooperative and condominium boards in the negotiation of contracts related to construction projects. I have also represented those parties in construction-related litigations and disputes, including those involving claims of breach of contract, construction defects and delays, RPAPL § 881, quantum meruit, unjust enrichment, and mechanic’s lien foreclosures.

Before entering private practice, I served as an assistant corporation counsel in the Office of the Corporation Counsel for the City of New York. In that role, I defended the City of New York, its agencies, and high-level officials in proceedings before federal and state courts, as well as before administrative tribunals. I also directly advised the Office of the Mayor and commissioners of city agencies regarding various policy initiatives and negotiated construction contracts with contractors doing business with the Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York City.

Using my extensive experience, I strive to provide clients with sound advice on a broad range of issues in a cost-effective manner.
