Jack is a graduate of the University of Cincinnati where he received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1967. After enrolling in law school at the George Washington University National Law Center (GW) in Washington, D.C. for one year in 1967, Jack spent the next 3 years in the entertainment industry producing musical events in numerous venues before returning to G.W. law school where he received his juris doctor degree in 1973. Jack was admitted to practice in New Jersey, inclusive of the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey in 1973 and has been a continuous member of the Bergen County and New Jersey Bar Associations ever since.
Jack spent the first 25 years of his professional career running a successful solo practice with several associates. During the course of those 25 years Jack maintained a litigation and transaction practice with personal responsibility for a variety of disciplines. Thereafter Jack was a senior partner for 7 years at the firm of Kleeblat, Galler, Abramson, Davidson & Zakim in Hackensack, New Jersey where he concentrated on commercial transactions and commercial litigation, with an emphasis in commercial real estate.
In recent years Jack has devoted a substantial portion of his practice to commercial real estate transactions including leasing, financing, foreclosure, tax appeals, development, condemnation, sales and acquisitions, and counts among his clientele private and publicly held companies and local and regional institutional and private real estate lenders, developers and brokers.
Jack is a conscientious professional with a reputation amongst his peers as a dedicated and zealous advocate for his clients. Jack’s competitive nature as an advocate can be traced to his years as a competitive athlete.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level
- - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials
- - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost
- - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City
- - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
