Attorney
CurrentTHE AUTOMOBILE DEALER CLIENT:I have been representing automobile dealerships since 1979. I have worked with single point family-run dealerships, groups that have owned multi-state and multi-franchise dealerships and have counseled dealers in numerous buy/sell transactions. I have organized, structured, and continue to represent nation-wide and regional dealer marketing associations. On behalf of my automobile dealer clients, I have appeared before the Attorney General, the Department of Motor Vehicles, various Consumer Protection bureaus and arbitration panels, and have litigated in courts ranging from those on the appellate level down to small claims. I have dealt with the very top echelons of manufacturers, advertisers, and dealership service providers. And I have loved every moment. There is no such thing as a "typical" automobile dealer. They have a dizzying array of unique personalities, but each personality is vibrant as well as demanding. REPRESENTATIVE CLIENTS:• Multi-franchise, multi-state and individual domestic and foreign automobile dealerships.• National factory-sponsored and independent automobile dealer advertising associations.• National real estate holding companies, institutional lenders, developers, cooperative apartment corporations, and multi-family residential and commercial landlords.• Regionally recognized retail chains, restaurants, hotels, and wholesale distributors.• Internet and high technology manufacturing companies and NYSE listed communication companies.
