About Elizabeth

I have 17 years experience as an employment lawyer; 3 years as a Federal Court law clerk, 5 years with a national employment law firm, 3 years with a Fortune 50 company, and 6 years in private practice. I focus on results and adding value, and not on "billable hours."  I strive to help you achieve the best outcome as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible.

Our services are tailored for the small employer, entrepreneur and/or non-profit organization.  We specialize in providing expert advice and counsel on every-day labor and employment law questions.

Managing your work force of 500 employees or less can be challenging. I  offer low retainer fees and package deals with services including: advice and counsel, employee handbook drafting or review; I-9 compliance review; preparation of wage/hour notices now required under New York State Law; and employee/manager training.  

Avoid a crisis in your workplace. Proactive employers who stay abreast of legal requirements in the workplace avoid losing money due to lost productivity, low employee morale, and negative publicity. With proper procedures and safeguards in place, you can create and maintain a healthy and productive workplace.

We also provide expert advice and counsel to resolve business disputes and negotiate business partner divorces.  

Give us a call at 845-381-1664, to find out how easily we can offer peace of mind in the day-to-day operation of your business.     

Hourly rates well below large firm rates. Low monthly retainer. One-stop shop: Package deals for Employee Handbook, I-9/Wage-Hour compliance review, and employee training.
