I come from a diverse background in customer-facing industries, which has shaped my approach to legal representation. I prioritize clear communication and strong working relationships with all my clients. I recognize that legal issues are often deeply personal, and I am committed to providing not only skilled advocacy but also practical solutions that are tailored to the unique needs of each client.
Being an immigrant three times over, I have firsthand insight into the challenges individuals face when navigating new legal and business landscapes. Raised in a community of entrepreneurs, I gained a deep understanding of the complexities involved in running a business. This background makes me a trusted advisor to business owners seeking legal guidance. My practice areas include business law, divorce and family law, real estate transactions, and general counsel services, focusing on strategic planning and protecting my clients’ financial and personal interests.
Real estate is a critical sector of the U.S. economy and often intersects with business and family law. Whether I am assisting with business formation, handling complex divorces involving significant assets, or guiding clients through real estate transactions, I offer comprehensive legal support backed by my experience and a strong professional network.
Being fluent in French, Italian, Russian, German, and Spanish, I am well-equipped to serve a diverse clientele and provide legal services with cultural sensitivity and understanding.

- Q. Launching a taxi-hailing platform in New York: legal considerations for capital income exchange and cash split.
- A: This is a great question with a lot of moving parts. Structuring a platform like this—especially in New York—raises regulatory, tax, and contractual considerations. You’ll want to think through how revenue flows between you and the cooperatives, how profits and risks are shared, and whether the model triggers any specific licensing or compliance obligations. Definitely a conversation worth having with an attorney familiar with platform-based business models and transportation regulations in NY.
- Q. Can I pay a referral fee to a non-licensed person in NJ real estate?
- A: In New Jersey, a licensed real estate salesperson cannot legally pay a referral or finder’s fee to an unlicensed individual for referring real estate clients. The New Jersey Real Estate Commission strictly prohibits compensating individuals who are not licensed under the New Jersey Real Estate Licensing Act (N.J.S.A. 45:15-1 et seq.) for activities that require a real estate license, and client referrals fall within those activities.

The Social Affair Permit applies to non-profits, so it may not be suitable for your for-profit classes. Since your business model is unique, consulting the NJ Division of Alcoholic Beverage Control is recommended to ensure compliance. They can clarify whether a specific license or exemption applies. You may also want legal guidance on navigating NJ’s alcohol laws. More info: njoag.gov.
