Get The Representation That Is Right For You

In the best situations, we help divorcing couples or parents work together to fashion an outcome that meets both their needs and the needs of their children. When that approach isn’t possible or preferable, you can count on our team to provide able and effective representation in court. Whether settling matters at the negotiating table or fighting in court, you’ll benefit from strong representation based on personal, one-on-one communication so that you know your needs are being met.

Our firm’s founder and principal attorney has been focused on family law since clerking at a prestigious New York matrimonial law firm while still in law school at Hofstra University, and he has been practicing family law as a licensed New York attorney since 2004. From large law firms to his own boutique private practice, Joshua Adam Kittenplan has devoted his career to helping individuals and families in Long Island with their most pressing family law needs. We welcome the opportunity to get to know you and help you as well.

Comprehensive Long Island Family Law Practice

No matter what your family law needs, the Law Office of Joshua Adam Kittenplan has the knowledge, skills and abilities you need for efficient and effective representation. Call our office for help with any of the following needs, among others:

  • Divorce – You can rely on our experienced law firm to provide knowledgeable advice and effective representation to make sure your interests are respected and reflected in the outcome of your divorce, including vital areas such as property division, child custody, child support, and alimony (maintenance). We take the time to listen to you, understand your concerns, and make sure your needs are addressed.
  • Same-Sex Marriage – As a long-time supporter of the LGBT community in Long Island, the Law Office of Joshua Adam Kittenplan is sensitive to the many special issues that same-sex couples face when it comes to marriage, divorce, domestic partnerships, custody, adoption, and other family law matters.
  • Pre & Postnuptial Agreements – Our office provides skilled assistance in negotiating, drafting and reviewing prenuptial and postnuptial agreements to put your marriage on a firm foundation and make sure you are protected and taken care of in case of divorce or other significant family events. Our skilled litigator is likewise available for challenging or defending the validity and enforceability of prenups and postnups when and if they come into play.
  • Adoption – Helping families grow is one of the most fulfilling and satisfying aspects of a family law practice. Adoptions can be complicated and affect the rights of many parties. We’ll guide you and represent you to help the process conclude smoothly and successfully.
  • Orders of Protection – When you need to file an order of protection, the Law Office of Joshua Adam Kittenplan can help you appeal to the court for swift and effective action. An order of protection is a powerful tool to keep you safe, and it can play a powerful role in a divorce or child custody dispute. If you are seeking help or fighting against an unjust order, our office is here for you with sound advice and strong representation.
  • Mediation – Mediation is an alternative to litigation that can help you get a result that meets your needs, reflects your actual interests, and will be more willingly implemented without the need to go to court for enforcement. Mediation can be faster and less expensive than litigation, with a more desirable result. We encourage mediation in appropriate cases and are by your side protecting your rights and interests before and during mediation.
  • Enforcement of Court Orders – Parties don’t always willingly comply with court orders regarding custody or support. Don’t take matters into your own hands or withhold custody when your ex isn’t complying; you’ll only make matters worse and hurt your own rights. Instead, let our dedicated family law attorney advise you and take appropriate legal action to make sure you are getting the benefit of court orders for you and your family.
  • Parental Relocation – Custodial parents sometimes have the need or desire to relocate with their kids, whether for school, work, to be closer to family, or simply to make a new start. Relocations need the permission of the court, especially if the move is challenged by the non-custodial parent. We know the factors the courts analyze in move-away cases and represent parents seeking or opposing relocations.
  • Paternity – Establishing paternity is essential to settle legal rights and responsibilities regarding child custody, visitation and child support, and it can have profound impacts on a child’s life in many consequential ways. We represent mothers, fathers, children and other interested parties in paternity proceedings and related matters in New York divorce and child custody cases.
  • Appeals – Joshua Adam Kittenplan has extensive appellate experience, including preparing written briefs and oral arguments, and his cases have resulted in several published decisions in New York. We are happy to advise you on whether to appeal a decision in your family law case, and we represent both petitioners and respondents in the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court, First and Second Departments.

Mr. Kittenplan represented my wife and I when we bought ...
He walked us through the process and took the time to explain each step.  We sat in his office and he went over the contract with us and made specific recommendations of changes that he felt were necessary to protect our interests.  After, he followed through and made sure that those changes were accepted by the sellers.  The closing went very smoothly as well.  When my wife and I took possession of the house, there were items that were included in the contract that had been removed.  I contacted Mr. ...

JM — Former Real Estate Client
Joshua Adam Kittenplan has been the most wonderful attorney.
I knew I was facing a divorce. Another legal firm recommended that I call Josh and it was the best advice I’ve ever received. When we met for the first time I knew right away that I was going to get the best legal representation. But it turned out I got more than that. Josh really cares. He was available with advice and guidance every single time I called or emailed with  questions or concerns, or even if I was just upset and needed to talk.  The end result of ... Read More

I wish to recommend Joshua Kittenplan to any potential client ...
I accompanied my sister on her first consultation with Joshua to support her at a very emotional time. I found him to be very sensitive, willing to listen and informative.

Those qualities in her attorney sustained my sister throughout the divorce proceedings and brought her to an acceptable agreement which allowed her to keep her own home and look forward to an independent life. I am very thankful to Joshua Kittenplan for the professional and compassionate ... Read More
Sister of Former Matrimonial Client
The best interest of the client is his focus, always
I hired Mr. Kittenplan to help enforce a divorce agreement that was already in place. From our first consultation, I was treated with the utmost respect, care and concern. Mr. Kittenplan worked with me, helped me navigate the court system and choose the best course of action for myself and my children. He was not driven by his own monetary gain, advised me on several options, all the while maintaining my wishes to keep the situation as amicable as possible. If and when tough choices needed to be made, he ... Read More
Judy — Former Family Law Client
An attorney with heart
I was referred by Josh Kittenplan's former client. I'm a mother of 3 kids with an X who decided one day to alter our child support agreement. After some considerable pleading, I could see the only way to enforce my agreement was with a lawyer. A move no one really wants to make. My saving grace was calling Josh who immediately took my call and proceeded to discuss at length my issue. Within weeks my situation was resolved -and it was worth it! Josh truly saved the day. VERY HIGHLY ... Read More
