About Michael Markowitz

Many of my clients operate large companies. Normally they need a personalized approach that they cannot receive in a large law practice. I listen. I give options. I try to give realistic expectations. I believe success is proper execution after a client makes an informed decision. Examples of reported decisions: Hill v. Estate of Avnet, 13 Misc.3d 1210(A), 824 N.Y.S.2d 754 (Defeated partners' claim against deceased client's estate), Archdeacon v. Town of Oyster Bay, 12 Misc.3d 438, 813 N.Y.S.2d 289 (Suffolk Sup. Ct. 2006) (Reversed town on Article 78), Glazer v. AA Premier Realty, Ltd., 294 F.Supp.2d 296 (E.D.N.Y. 2003) (Judgment under 9 USC§10(b) security fraud), Gehm v. New York Life Ins. Co., 992 F. Supp. 209 (E.D.N.Y. 1998) (Removal of ERISA claim under All Writs Act), Lamm v.
