My Sunday mornings begin . . . at the end. Of the New York Times Magazine, that is. I’ll peruse the Lives column, for stories about, well, people’s lives. Then, I’ll jump to the front of the magazine and indulge in an “educational minute” with William Safire’s column On Language. Before I move on to fun and games with the Sunday crossword puzzle (jumping again to the back of the magazine), I’ll stop to read Randy Cohen’s column, The Ethicist.

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.
With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.
And because I’ve been a business owner myself, I’ve lived through the soaring highs and devastating lows – like when my first law firm failed. So I understand what’s involved to serve great clients, detect business risks early and build a true legacy.
I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
