Donald R. Wall
Experienced NYC Metro Attorney
I am an experienced NYC metro-area attorney who represents clients with family law matters and divorce disputes. I have been practicing law for over 25 years.
I have a solid reputation for my legal ability and have attained Martindale-Hubbell's® AV® peer-review rating.
My practice has primarily focused on family law. My legal experience includes sophisticated commercial litigation which is a true asset to my private family law practice.
I am a confident and skilled attorney who has counseled all kinds of legal proceedings:
- Trials
- Mediations
Each of my clients’ cases are different and require very specific and unique legal remedies. I don’t pigeon hole my clients and you will never hear me say, “I had a case just like yours.” I understand my clients deserve individual attention, and I am committed to exploring all available solutions to serve my clients’ best interests and legal needs.
Midtown Divorce Attorney Understands Family Issues
I understand how complicated family law issues can be. I am the father of two sons and recognize the strength and importance of parent-child relationships.
My practice is shaped to honor and preserve family relationships. I work with my clients to find alternate resolutions that minimize the damage of divorce on familial relationships.
Attorney Offers Personalized NYC Counsel
It is my belief that the attorney/client relationship that exists during divorce is one of the most important professional relationships of your life. I focus my practice on the kind of detailed and personalized attention that creates a true partnership.
I am a one-man show and I handle all aspects of my clients’ claims. This hands-on approach allows me to provide the kind of service that is a truly beneficial to my clients:
- Keeping legal fees manageable
- Gaining a full understanding of my clients cases
- Providing one-on-one legal counsel
Clients call my firm and speak directly with me. I strive to make myself available to my clients when they need advice or guidance. I also like to preserve a sense of humor about life and bring that to my legal practice.
