Steven J. Mandel now regularly “performs” as a legal analyst on TV, sharing his wealth of knowledge and legal expertise in a totally engaging way. All of the major New York newspapers have quoted him extensively and his legal papers have been sought out by Matthew Bender for inclusion in their form books, which serve as examples of writing excellence for other attorneys.
Steven J. Mandel went to Adelphi University on a baseball scholarship. Although he received an invitation to try out for the Toronto Blue Jays, he decided his competitive spirit would best be served by becoming a lawyer and thus he followed a dream and obtained a Doctor of Law (J.D.) degree, as a member of the prestigious “First Class”, from Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law in 1979.
In recognition of his knowledge, experience and integrity, upon the recommendation of a sitting Judge of the New York State Supreme Court, Steven J. Mandel was trained, certified and now volunteers as an Early Neutral Evaluator to assist litigants in resolving complex legal matters prior to going to trial.
Steven J. Mandel serves as a faculty member of the New York College of Matrimonial Trial Attorneys and, as such, presents continuing legal education programs on trial practice and family law for other lawyers at Bar Associations and law schools throughout New York State.
Steven J. Mandel was selected as a “Top 100 Lawyer in the United States”, as well as a “Super Lawyer“. He received Martindale-Hubbell’s “AV Preeminent Rating”, which is the “highest rating possible for legal ability and ethical standards” as well as AVVO’s “10.0” rating for “legal experience, peer recognition and client satisfaction”. He’s honored to be chosen a Family Law Practitioner of the Year by NY Magazine, and had a “profile rating” in April 2015, of #89 out of 100,331 lawyers in New York State and #1,275 out of 1,692,000 nationwide, placing him in the top 99.94 percentile!
Because of his wealth of knowledge and experience representing people in high net-worth and complex financial matters, Steven J. Mandel was asked to join the Advisory Board of the American Academy For Certified Financial Litigators.
Steven J. Mandel has been described as “the Picasso of the legal profession” because of his proven ability to keenly assess each client’s situation and tailor an approach best suited to a successful outcome. For these reasons, he has succeeded with what other lawyers might describe as the “un-winnable case”.
With all of these accomplishments, it is no wonder why Steven J. Mandel was been selected by his peers to be a co-chair of the prestigious New York County Lawyers Association’s Matrimonial Section and chosen as a “Titan — One of New York’s Bad-Ass Divorce Lawyers You Wouldn’t Want To See Representing Your Spouse.”
