What Our Clients Says...
Whoever said Money Can't Buy Happiness has never paid for a Divorce! Jason Isaacson has represented me vigorously and diligently in my hotly contested divorce. This was a litigated matter and was resolved in a tad over one year. That is really quick for any litigation, let alone a matrimonial matter that was fought on every issue. Not only was he aggressive in moving this case forward, we WON every time we went to Court! I got exclusive use and occupancy of my home! I got my car back that my ex-wife stole. I got back all the money I invested into my marital home. I have also referred many clients to Jason for matrimonial, child support and contested divorce and he wins for them too! Every client I have referred has been very happy. For my clients who are lovers and not fighters, I refer the to Jason Isaacson for mediation. As difficult as divorce is, I am the happiest I have been in my life and appreciate everything Jason has done ❤️

FAQ
Oil Spill
What Types of Compensation Can I Seek for an Oil Spill?
You may seek compensation for damages such as property damage, loss of income, cleanup costs, environmental restoration, and personal injury. Additionally, businesses impacted by the spill may claim loss of business revenue and reputational harm.
How Can I File a Claim for Damages Caused by an Oil Spill?
To file a claim, you must document the damage caused, provide evidence of the oil spill’s impact on your property or livelihood, and identify the responsible party. Our experienced attorneys can guide you through the process, ensuring you meet all legal requirements and deadlines.
What Is the Process for Suing a Company Responsible for An Oil Spill?
The process involves filing a lawsuit against the responsible company, presenting evidence of negligence or fault, and proving the damages you incurred. We help navigate these complex cases by gathering strong evidence, consulting professionals and advocating vigorously on your behalf.
What Kind of Evidence Should I Collect After an Oil Spill?
Key evidence includes photographs or videos of the spill’s impact, receipts for cleanup costs, medical reports (if applicable), business records showing financial losses, and any communications with the responsible company. Timely collection of evidence is critical.
How Do I Know If I Have a Valid Claim Against an Oil Company?
If the oil spill has caused you financial, property, or personal damages, you likely have a valid claim. Contact our firm for a case evaluation to determine the strength of your claim and potential compensation.
What Should I Do If the Responsible Company Denies Liability for The Spill?
If the company denies liability, it’s essential to consult with legal counsel immediately. We can help gather evidence, work with environmental and legal professionals, and build a compelling case to hold them accountable.
Child Custody
What Factors Does The Court Consider When Determining Child Custody?
Courts prioritize the best interests of the child. Factors include the child’s age, emotional needs, each parent’s ability to provide a stable home, parental income, the child’s relationship with each parent, and any history of abuse or neglect.
How Can I Demonstrate That I Am The Better Custodial Parent?
Demonstrating that you prioritize your child’s physical, emotional, and educational needs is crucial. This includes maintaining a safe home, active involvement in the child’s life, and supporting their relationship with the other parent.
How Can I Protect My Child's Emotional Well-Being During A Contentious Custody Battle?
Focus on minimizing conflict, avoid speaking negatively about the other parent in front of your child, and ensure the child has access to supportive resources like therapy if needed. We can help navigate the legal aspects while you prioritize your child’s needs.
What Can I Do To Help My Child Adjust To A New Custody Arrangement?
Establish routines, communicate openly, and reassure your child of your love and stability. Encourage positive relationships with both parents and remain patient as they adapt to the changes.
What Can I Do If My Ex-Spouse Is Trying To Alienate My Child From Me?
Document any instances of alienation and seek legal advice immediately. Courts take parental alienation seriously and may adjust custody arrangements to protect the child’s relationship with both parents.
How Can I Establish Effective Communication With My Ex-Spouse For The Sake Of Our Child?
Use structured communication tools like parenting apps or mediation to keep discussions focused on your child’s needs. Our attorneys can help establish legally binding agreements to support cooperative parenting.
Divorce & Family
I Want to Get Divorced. What First Steps Do You Recommend?
Start by consulting an attorney to understand your rights and gather important documents like financial records, property deeds, and custody agreements. This preparation ensures a smoother legal process.
What Legal Steps Should I Take Immediately After My Divorce Is Finalized?
Update your will, beneficiaries, and financial accounts. Finalize property transfers, follow custody agreements, and address any spousal or child support obligations. Our firm can assist with post-divorce legal tasks.
How Long Does The Divorce Process Take?
The timeline depends on factors like contested issues, court schedules, and state laws. On average, divorces take 6–12 months, though uncontested cases may resolve more quickly.
How Is Property Divided In A Divorce?
New York follows equitable distribution, meaning property is divided fairly but not necessarily equally. The court considers factors like income, contributions to the marriage, and the needs of each spouse.
Will I Have To Pay Alimony Or Spousal Support?
Alimony decisions depend on factors such as the length of the marriage, each spouse’s earning capacity, and their standard of living during the marriage. We can help advocate for a fair outcome.
How Do I Separate Our Joint Finances After A Divorce?
Close joint accounts, open individual accounts, and work with your attorney to divide assets like retirement funds or real estate. Address shared debts to avoid future liability.
What Should I Do If My Spouse Entitled to My Inheritance After Our Divorce?
Typically, inheritances are considered separate property, but if they were commingled with marital assets, they might be subject to division. Our attorneys can help protect your inheritance during the divorce process.
