In Lombardi v. Lombardi (2016), assisted in successfully representing the plaintiff in securing a precedential New Jersey Appellate Division decision establishing that regular savings is a component of marital lifestyle and must be considered in calculating alimony.

In Ciasulli v. Ciasulli (2004), assisted in representing the non-titled spouse in a landmark New Jersey divorce case, securing a trial and New Jersey Appellate Division ruling recognizing that, where significant delay occurs between complaint and trial, even an “active” business may experience passive appreciation subject to equitable distribution.
