Ms. Feinberg is a litigator, focusing most of her over 20-years of practice representing parents and children in a wide variety of family law matters including custody, child support, domestic violence proceedings, adoption, and appeals. Her area of focus with Duke Law Firm is helping men and women navigate some of the hardest and most emotional experiences of their lives – divorce, custody, and related litigation.
As a result of her years of experience in all aspects of general civil litigation (including employment discrimination, contract and business disputes, guardianship, and estate litigation), as well as her experience with matrimonial and custodial issues, she is a formidable opponent in court and has the skills necessary to handle complex matrimonial and family litigation matters. Ms. Feinberg also understands the financial and emotional toll these matters have on parents and children. She prides herself on being compassionate and practical in her approach with clients, while also employing a “big picture/no nonsense” strategy to get to the best possible outcome.
Ms. Feinberg started her career handling estates and commercial litigation. In 2010, Ms. Feinberg was a temporary law clerk for the Honorable Michael A. Telesca, Federal Court Judge for the Western District of New York, where she researched and drafted decisions for complex matters. Ms. Feinberg transitioned into private practice, concentrating in family and matrimonial law matters, and has also worked for the Livingston County Conflict Defender’s Office. She has successfully tried hundreds of cases in State Supreme, Family, and local courts and has argued before the Supreme Court Appellate Division in the Fourth Department multiple times.
Ms. Feinberg earned her Juris Doctor degree from Albany Law School in 2002. She was admitted to practice in the New York State Fourth Judicial Department in 2003, and in Federal Court in the Western and Northern Districts of New York in 2005, and the Southern District of New York in 2012.
