We serve clients across Long Island and the metropolitan area. Bond empowers our clients with the legal knowledge and experience they need to reach their objectives. Our clients range from Fortune 500 companies to local, family-owned businesses as well as virtually every type of public sector entity, public benefit corporations and numerous public authorities.
Islanders first, our attorneys are embedded in the communities we represent. We live in the towns we advise and send our children to the schools we counsel. At the same time, we are a part of Bond’s firmwide, collaborative, integrated team of over 300 attorneys with experience in 35 practices and industry groups with 10 offices in New York. Our geographical footprint allows us to represent Long Island clients that have statewide operations with attorneys who are familiar with the local judges and members of the bar.
Our attorneys aggressively advocate for clients in state and federal courts as well as before administrative agencies, addressing complex legal challenges across employment and constitutional law, land use, and commercial disputes. With a proven track record in jury and bench trials and extensive experience in administrative hearings, we approach each case with a results-driven mindset—crafting strategic legal arguments, leveraging deep industry knowledge, and executing precise litigation tactics to secure favorable outcomes. Whether navigating high-stakes civil disputes or intricate regulatory matters, our focus remains steadfast: delivering successful resolutions that meet our clients' objectives.
Bond’s business and transactions attorneys offer comprehensive legal services to businesses of all sizes, from sole proprietorships to Fortune 500 companies. We address diverse legal business challenges by prioritizing client relationships and aligning with their strategic goals, allowing us to deeply understand their unique needs. We focus not only on the difficult issues facing startup businesses, but also complex merger and acquisition transactions. Bond attorneys are adept at managing multifaceted projects and providing tailored legal solutions, ensuring accessibility and support whenever our clients need us.
Our real estate and construction practice group offers comprehensive legal services, combining transactional expertise and litigation experience. We assist clients with property sales, site due diligence, zoning approvals, construction contracting, leasing, and financing, including institutional, public, CMBS and private placements. Our services also cover environmental permitting, legal opinions and litigation. Serving a diverse clientele—from individual and institutional owners to utilities, healthcare systems, municipalities, contractors and insurers—we address the varied needs of the real estate sector.
Our business restructuring, creditors' rights and bankruptcy practice is comprised of lawyers whose diverse and varied backgrounds provide the necessary skills to represent a broad spectrum of clients including: commercial debtors, not-for-profit debtors, creditors' committees, banks and other institutional lenders, secured parties, trade creditors, commercial developers, health care institutions and insurance companies.
In 2021, Bond expanded its trust and estate practice to Long Island. Our attorneys are skilled at working with clients to identify their unique long-term needs and create plans that meet those needs. They also work with small business owners to design and implement business succession plans.
The attorneys of the Long Island office have consistently been recognized for their excellence by The Best Lawyers in America®, New York Metro Super Lawyers®, Martindale-Hubbell and Long Island Business News.
History
The Bond Long Island office brings talent from two Bond locations, Garden City and Melville. Bond opened its Garden City office in 2004, staffed predominantly by attorneys from Rains & Pogrebin, after the historic Long Island labor law firm dissolved. The Melville office was established in 2022, following our combination with the vibrant commercial practice of the Long Island-based firm Lazer, Aptheker, Rosella & Yedid. Bond’s expansion on Long Island demonstrates our commitment to growth to enable us to deliver superior client service and foster community involvement on Long Island.
