Neiman Ginsburg & Mairanz P.C.

Our Firm

Our firm began in February, 1982 and is primarily based in New York City in our modern, fully equipped offices located on the 25th floor at 39 Broadway. We also have an office at 520 Westfield Avenue, Elizabeth, New Jersey. The lawyers in our firm, some of whom have been practicing law for more than 20 years, come to us from public service, from the business world, from other firms and directly from law schools. Many of our attorneys have degrees in business as well as law. As a result, our firm has developed an innovative style in dealing with novel and difficult issues by calling upon the diverse perspectives and viewpoints available in order to deal with every aspect of a business or legal matter.

We are engaged in the general practice of business law. Our priorities are placed upon providing the highest quality legal work. We strive to give our clients prompt and individualized attention at the highest professional standards, with an emphasis on achieving timely and practical results and keeping costs at a reasonable level.

We have incorporated the most up-to-date technology into our practice in order to assist us in representing our clients. In addition to our extensive in-house law library, we have computerized links to computerized research databases. We also have computerized links to many of the courts that we practice in. We practice in the federal and state courts. We have represented clients in the Supreme Court of the United States, the federal Courts of Appeals for the Second and Third Circuits and the District and Bankruptcy Courts in those circuits. We have also represented clients at all levels of the state court systems in New York and New Jersey.

Among our primary areas of concentration are administrative law, appeals, arbitration, bankruptcy, complex business litigation, corporate and business law, debtor and creditor rights, elder law, health care law and real estate law. Our clients include substantial industrial and retail companies, hospitals and nursing homes, as well as many active individual entrepreneurs, partnerships and smaller business organizations, both publicly owned and closely held.

We have experience in all types of dispute resolution procedures, from negotiation to arbitration to mediation to litigation.

Our firm provides full services to our clients, from the acquisition and servicing of large companies through the purchase of their homes. We offer our clients the benefits of attorneys with a great variety of professional experience and the availability of a pool of different, yet practical approaches. The interplay and interaction between our professional staff helps draw on the varied talents of the entire firm. We stress the ability to listen to our clients before rendering advice. We are experienced enough to provide the necessary expertise to handle sophisticated matters, yet small enough to maintain a close relationship with our clients and to deal with all matters efficiently.

Our firm is rated "AV" by the Martindale-Hubbell Rating System, denoting its highest rating in legal ability and faithful adherence to the professional standards and ethics of the legal profession. We are also listed in the Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers.
