About Chaim Steinberger

IMAGINE IF DIVORCE instead of being the destructive process that makes it impossible to co-parent your children for the next 15–20 years, can now be a HEALING PROCESS, one in which you can hear and be heard, often as you haven't been able to for many years before.I graduated top of my class, worked at the best firms and clerked for a federal judge. But I then went through a nasty divorce and thought “There has GOT to be a better way.” I’ve since dedicated my life to that better way, protecting, defending and empowering clients when their closest confidante has become their worst adversary. I live and die with every client and bring big-firm professionalism to matrimonial and family law. In one case I was the fifth lawyer after four others failed. At my first appearance the judge told me “Counselor, your client’s got one foot in Rikers!” “Yes, I know,” I responded. “I just need four weeks to prepare responsive papers.” We returned four weeks later, and my two-hour oral argument turned the judge around showing her that my client was the “good” one and the OTHER the “bad!” We were scheduled for Tuesday afternoon on a motion. Late Friday I received a flash drive with 50MB of data from opposing counsel. I asked my client to come in for what I expected would be a few hours Saturday morning. We ended up spending all day Saturday, all day Sunday, all day Monday, and all night Monday night until early dawn Tuesday morning drafting our responsive papers. The result? The Court called us into chambers and the judge herself proposed the exact resolution my client had asked for when first walking into my office! Two clients came to me who did not want to get divorced, but whose spouses had sued them for divorce. I told them what to do and they won their spouses back!  The client who urged me to unleash “The Wrath of Chaim” got an unimaginable result when the judge sua sponte recused herself from the case and the adversary completely capitulated.Through hard work and dedication I've earned the trust and acclaim of my colleagues who say that I am “the best of the best,” “a lawyers’ lawyer,” that I have a “a near-encyclopedic knowledge of the law” and that my “ethical character is of the highest order." My clients call me selfless, compassionate, understanding and knowledgeable, and say that “He made me feel like I mattered”; “After talking to him, talking to other lawyers made me feel like I was talking to . . . three year old[s]," "He is the ‘Einstein of Law’"; and “a mind-blowing lawyer who also has a very genuine kind heart.”

    I protect mothers and fathers, ensuring that they get the justice they deserve. I use my quarter-century mediating-experience and creativity to develop new win-win solutions, because all children and parents are better off that way. I am never gratuitously nasty and was proudest when a father told me, "Chaim, you gave my daughter back her childhood!" I authored "Father? What Father? Parental Alienation and its Effects on Children which was republished by the NYS Appellate Division (in its Law Guardian Reporter).

    New York, New York, United States
    Serving as a mediator for civil and commercial disputes in the SDNY, the Supreme Court Commercial Division, Supreme Court matrimonial matters, Civil Court, and Part-137, gives me the opportunity to observe advocates, the arguments that are persuasive, and how they are presented for best effect, and what arguments and techniques to avoid. It also allows me to hone my negotiation skills so that I am more persuasive. I use these skills both when I am mediating but also when I am advocating on behalf of clients.At one mediation, counsel interrupted the mediation to say, "Wow! This is the best mediation ever!" Opposing Counsel responded by saying, "Yes, this feels like a law school exam."After a divorce mediation I conducted with parties who had been in litigation for more than a year, their lawyers reported afterwards that, "Oh. They decided not to get divorced!"

    I learned to polish my writing and to eliminate excess verbiage. My apprenticeship at SR&Z turned me into the wordsmith I am today, with judges reading back to me lines I agonized over from within a 15 page affidavit. I value and treasure the wisdom and guidance I received here.
