Nicholas Scelfo, 11, decorated his family’s condo on Wheeler Avenue for Christmas. Every time the Willow Road School student brings home a good grade, he gets a new set of lights to add to front of the home. Nicholas estimates that he has about 1,000 lights already, and his favorites are the multi-colored strings.

The Four Types of Attorneys (And Why Knowing Yours Changes Everything)

Picture this: It's 11 PM the night before trial. Are you buried in research? Reviewing strategic contingencies? Getting rest to stay sharp? Or perfecting your opening story? It’s certainly no secret that attorneys approach their work differently, but these differences have rarely been described systematically. Steno has developed the Attorney Work Styles framework to help attorneys understand how they naturally process information, respond to pressure and execute their work. The result is better individual performance and smoother collaboration.

Trust the Innovator Not the Imitator: Why Nassau County Homeowners Should Choose Maidenbaum

Nassau County homeowners are bracing for rising taxes and unexpected expenses that always seem to pile up. Luckily, they can authorize Maidenbaum to file their property tax grievance for the 2027/28 tax year.
