Attorney Sondra I. Harris:
For nearly twenty-five years, Sondra I. Harris has represented
both men and women and has protected the interests and rights
of her clients while offering sensible and efficient solutions
and individualized attention to all her clients. An ongoing
aim of Sondra’s practice is to not just to litigate,
but also to counsel clients as to the most prudent way to
resolve a particular situation and to prepare the client
for the inevitable changes in life which will occur once
the litigation is over. Sondra and her staff strive to treat
each and every client like the unique individual he or she
is, and not a case number, because they believe that professionalism
and providing a personal touch need never be mutually exclusive.
Ms. Harris practices both in the Supreme and Family Courts.
While her practice is located in Woodmere, in Nassau County,
on the South Shore of Long Island, she has represented clients
in all of the New York City and Long Island Metro Area venues,
as well as Westchester, Putnam and Rockland Counties, and
she has also provided representation in local venues and
jurisdictions to numerous out-of-state clients. A mother
of two children, Sondra currently resides in Westchester
County, where she can also meet with clients by special appointment.
