Brooklyn Bankruptcy Lawyer

Overview

I was born and currently reside in Brooklyn, New York. I am married and have one son. When I’m not at work I try to spend as much time as I could in the great outdoors.I have hiked extensively throughout the Northeast. I am a member of the Catskill 3500 Club.I also am a runner.I have twice completed the Brooklyn Half-Marathon and will be running the New York Marathon for the first time in 2016.

I became a lawyer so that I can help others. Early on, I decided to establish my own law firm, so that I could practice law in the way that I thought it should be practiced. I believed that clients should be treated with respect and that it was my job to resolve each client's problem quickly, inexpensively and in the least stressful manner possible. I think of our clients as our extended family. In fact, I have known many of our clients for over twenty years.

I attended the New York City public schools, graduating from John Dewey High School in 1972.After high school I briefly went to Brooklyn College, but left and started a landscaping company in Staten Island.After a few years I returned to college and in 1980, I graduated from the College of Staten Island with a Bachelor of Science in Economics with highest honors. In 1983, I graduated from Pace Law School in White Plains and was admitted to practice law in New Jersey. In 1984, I was admitted to practice law in New York.

From 1984 to 1985, I was a partner in the law firm of Peltz &McSweeney, which was located in Fair Lawn, New Jersey. I returned to Brooklyn in 1986 and established the law firm of Jeffrey B. Peltz, P.C. at 26 Court Street. We are still located there. Since my law firm was established, we have helped more than 20,000 clients with matters involving accidents, bankruptcy, divorce, family law, immigration, real estate, wills and estates.

I am admitted to practice law in both New York and New Jersey.I am admitted to the following courts: the Federal Court of New Jersey, the Eastern District of New York, Southern District of New York, the Northern District of New York, and the United States Supreme Court.
