Ever run around like a crazy person, only to finally have 5 minutes of down time? That’s me right now. I’m off on vacation at the crack of dawn on Friday—tomorrow will be a Thanksgiving blur at my husband’s sister’s place in upstate NY (a full day of family and food)—so the last day has been the working equivalent of a blivet. In other words, I’ve been trying to shove 24 hours of work into an 8-hour time frame. Okay, so I’m not totally succeeding, but I did just get a couple of major projects off my plate and now I can take a deep breath. Amazing, what a deep breath will do.

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.
