New York and Long Island Divorce and Criminal Defense Attorney.

My name is Joel Salinger. Thank you for visiting my website. For more than 14 years, my clients have placed their trust in me to defend their rights. I successfully represented the Matrimonial and Family Law cases of thousands of clients faced with a wide range of emotionally and financially challenging situations. In addition, I have defended an almost equal number of those faced with serious charges of Criminal, DWI/DUI and Traffic offences.

Take Charge Of Your Situation With My Experience On Your Side

I believe that educating a client so that they can assist in the successful solution to their case is an essential part of the process. This website has been created as a resource to inform our clients and prospective clients about their rights and the legal process.

Penalties for a conviction can vary, but can result in hefty fines, probation, prison time, suspended license and a criminal record.
