Legal Support for the Southern Foothills

Oneonta is a collegiate community framed by the foothills of the Catskill and Adirondack Mountains. With SUNY Oneonta and Hartwick College on its doorstep, the city combines a dynamic student presence with small-town charm.

Folks fill its historic downtown, local farms, and seasonal festivals—from the All-American Folk Festival to farmers' markets in Neahwa Park. Outdoor recreation and community spirit are cornerstones.

Our local team is part of that fabric. We serve tenants living in older homes, assist families with housing-security issues, and provide elder law help informed by the tight-knit values of a college-town community.
