OUR MISSION:
To Provide Personalized High Quality Legal Services For Every Client
Steven Silverberg and Katherine Zalantis are former partners of one of the largest law firms in the United States. Their experience is that most businesses, individuals and government entities do not focus on hiring hundreds of lawyers, but seek out an attorney or small team of attorneys for their individual skills and qualifications.
At Silverberg Zalantis LLP our mission is to combine our big firm experience with the one-on-one attorney-client relationship that is easier to develop and maintain in a small firm setting. Our experienced attorneys leverage technology to provide our corporate, municipal and individual clients with high quality legal services.
Our attorneys have handled major real estate developments, complex commercial transactions, including distressed real estate and sophisticated litigation, including civil rights, environmental and eminent domain actions. We believe that within our core areas of practice, such as zoning, land use, municipal and real estate law, we can provide transactional, litigation and appellate services that are competitive with any firm while still maintaining personal, one-on-one contact with the client. In addition, we represent our clients in areas related to our core practice, such as construction law, business formation and general commercial litigation.
