About
I were a solo practitioner seeing that 1999, after having labored for 2 historic maritime regulation offices in New York City. My exercise now consists almost exclusively of federal litigation, inclusive of maritime and constitutional regulation. I am perhaps satisfactory acknowledged for my own pro se constitutional venture to New York s ban on the in-domestic possession of the martial-arts weapon called the nunchaku (nunchucks), a case that has been in litigation seeing that 2003 (and keeps as of November 2015, when this passage changed into ultimate edited). Over the years, I have represented severa individuals in state and federal courtroom in connection with their constitutional rights concerning nunchaku as well as different banned guns, which includes the black cat keychain and the so-referred to as gravity knife. I keep to symbolize individuals and agencies in maritime and different business topics, and, underneath certain occasions, to offer criminal defense. Since 2011, I actually have served as a volunteer mediator at the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. My approach to litigation, like my technique to mediation, is to resolve issues rather than create them. › ›
