As an experienced New York attorney, I have seen how legal problems and debt can consume people’s lives. I am attorney Scott Ugell. I provide legal advice and representation for families, consumers and small businesses because that is who I am, and that is who I care about. For more than 30 years, I have been helping people throughout the Greater Hudson Valley resolve their legal problems efficiently and effectively. At The Ugell Law Firm, P.C., you will find a friendly staff striving to make the legal process as straightforward as possible; responsive and always willing to give you straight, clear answers.

Eugene Litman, Esq. established Litman & Litman, P.C. in 1958. Eugene raised his four sons with aspirations that they would join him in the legal profession. He and his sons often discussed legal cases and argued their potential outcome over the dinner table. Eventually, all four of Eugene’s sons took up the legal profession by becoming lawyers. Two of Eugene’s sons, Jeffrey Litman and Kenneth Litman, joined their father’s firm. Today they have nearly 100 years of combined legal experience in personal injury law. Eugene Litman earned his degree from Brooklyn Law School while both Jeffrey Litman and Kenneth Litman earned their J.D. degrees from Touro College Jacob D. Fuchsberg Law Center. Jeffrey received a B.S. in Management from Boston University while Ken earned his B.S. in Management from Arizona State University. The Litman family has brought justice to thousands of clients by securing hundreds of millions of dollars in compensation for them. With degrees in both law and business, they are more than qualified to defend your interests. They will accommodate your schedule with visits to your residence, hospital, or nursing home. They treat clients and their client’s circumstances with sensitivity. They understand that clients are potentially dealing with personal tragedies such as personal injury and wrongful death. The Litman team remains competitive and keeps apprised of the latest legal matters by extensive readings, attending conferences, and constant networking. They have met many leaders in American law, including United States Supreme Court Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Antonin Scalia.

My law practice can be fairly characterized as "Community Law." The client who first came to me regarding a traffic ticket, I may also represent in a real estate transaction, by incorporating their business, defending them in a civil lawsuit, preparing their Will, or guiding them through bankruptcy. I take every client's need very seriously and I handle each matter with the greatest skill and professionalism.
