Staten Island Real Estate Attorney Profile

William J. Newstad, Esq., Attorney and Counselor at Law

Member

Since I started my law practice in 1997, my intention has been to connect with my clients to fulfill their needs. I consider myself an average person fortunate to have the opportunity to master a profession that allows me to serve. I know that most average folks don’t have regular contact with attorneys or the court system, nor do they have an in-depth understanding of the law. I take seriously my role as educator, informing my clients of all pertinent aspects of the law that may affect their personal and business objectives. Only a fully informed client can make the best decision or commit to a necessary course of action. The title of my firm, William J. Newstad, Esq., Attorney and Counselor at Law, serves to remind me of the awesome responsibility I bear in service to you, my client.

Through the years, my clients have expressed appreciation for the emphasis I place on face-to-face interaction, which has helped them understand the risks and rewards of their real estate transactions and other business dealings. After that first positive experience, many clients return for my counsel on important matters related to wills and probate and elder law cases.
