Sandra has been practicing law since 1993. Her many years of experience, coupled with her empathy for the humanity of others, consistently result in success for her clients. Sandra was a pre-med major and psychology minor at Hofstra, where she graduated with a B.A., before attending Adelphi University for Nursing. While in college, she worked at Nassau County Medical Center's Poison Control Center for four years, where she became proficient in reading medical records. After a brief stint at the American Diabetes Association, Sandra earned her law degree. Her law degree, combined with her medical experience, secured her a position at a large medical malpractice defense firm right after law school. Wanting to do more than work for insurance companies, Sandra joined a sole practitioner, where she began practicing medical malpractice on behalf of patients/victims and learned personal injury and divorce law. Sandra started her own firm with a partner, and after 17 years, she founded her current practice, which she has operated since 2012. Sandra is proud of the compassionate team she has built since 2012, which consistently achieves excellent results for the firm's clients. Sandra has instilled in every employee that viewing a case from the client’s perspective is key to strong, passionate advocacy. Sandra is the author of You’re Getting Divorced…Now What?, a book that addresses issues faced during divorce, particularly in divorce court.
