Rosenthal Law & Mediation Compassionate lawyer, divorce mediator, and educator. I also an adjunct professor at the CUNY School of Law (my alma mater).

I started practicing family law by representing children in family court in 1997, and founded Rosenthal Law & Mediation in 2006. I approach my work with empathy, compassion, legal knowledge and skill. I understand that nothing is more important than the emotional, financial and spiritual health of your family.

Repairing a relationship confers dignity on both people—and brings a path toward real peace.
