About

I have been practicing law for more than 35 years. I spend a lot of time reading and researching to keep current on trends and changes in the field.In addition to being an attorney, I am also a certified public accountant (CPA). I use my financial background to your advantage in areas such as property settlements, child support and alimony. I am a good listener. I learn more by listening than I do by speaking. I allow my clients to express themselves. Sometimes the information I need to represent a client is deeply buried. In divorce, success is dependent on the individual case. For example, in some cases I have reunited parents with children when the parent had been estranged or precluded from visitation. Once I find out what is most important to a client, I can apply a vast amount of legal knowledge and experience to achieving that result.I am a zealous advocate. I know how to be aggressive and assertive, but I also know there are times when you don't want to be aggressive. Sometimes it is easier to go over, under or around an obstacle. I evaluate each case and choose the best course of action for my client.It is very important to me to get the particular results my clients want. I work from early in the morning until late at night to do that. I don't ever want to find a case where I was out-prepared by another attorney. That is my commitment to you.I am totally accessible to my clients. I welcome and encourage clients to email me so I can offer a thoughtful written reply they can receive at any time day or night. Responding by email allows me to compose my thoughts and give my clients a considered response. My clients, in turn, can print out my response for their own records and refer back to it later.Many of my divorce clients remain close to me for years after their divorce. My mail box is clogged with Christmas cards every year. I like divorce work and the results I can obtain for clients. I appreciate the loyal and lasting relationships I develop with them.

Curt Arnel made me feel at ease the minute I walked into his office. As nerve racking as divorce is, he reduced the stress during my process. I would recommend him to anyone, anytime.

I have been using this team of lawyers for a child custody case as a father. I have been through many lawyers in the past that could not follow through with what they have said, but this is not the case here at Arnel Law Firm. They have been extremely well prepared for court appearances and are not afraid to speak up to refute the opposing party or get their point across. They have taken my needs into consideration and have made last minute court appearances in order to benefit my case. I would highly recommend this team to anyone, but especially fathers, as they have not been biased at all throughout this case. I will continue to use their services in the future, and I am sure they will get the job done right. Again, I would highly recommend this set of lawyers to anyone with an extremely tough case. They are straight forward and will get the results they say they will. It is hard to find a great set of lawyers; this place is it.

I went to Mr. Arnel before my third marriage for advice about a prenuptial agreement to protect my assets for both my children and new wife. His advice and demeanor was excellent during our meeting, and I would not hesitate to recommend him. Great service.

Curt Arnel did a fantastic job negotiating & representing me in my child support modification case. I was impressed by his knowledge of family court law & ease of which to talk to regarding my case. After retaining Curt my case was resolved in 3 court visits 1 of which was due to the magistrate adjournment. He was also able to negotiate on my behalf with my ex-wife towards a resolution (something i haven't been able to do in the 11 years since our divorce) with the outcome being acceptable for both sides . In short i would highly recommend Mr.Curt Arnel regarding all matters of Family/Matrimonial law.

I highly recommend Curt Arnel, Esq. Curt is both a CPA and a matrimonial litigator, and he did a superb job representing me in my divorce case. He was totally prepared and understood the financial information so well that he was able to skillfully negotiate a settlement agreement for me that was much better than I had expected. All the while he acted with utmost professionalism and courtesy and rapidly responded to my questions with experienced insight and strategic instincts. Curt’s knowledge of the law and understanding of people enables him to tactically approach settlement while considering how the case is likely to go at trial if it does not settle. His combination of intellect, knowledge, experience and training makes him the Divorce attorney you want on your side. I saved a lot of money in legal fees because Curt got the job done expertly and avoided a lengthy, costly trial. He can do the same for you!

Curt Arnel and Lauren Arnel are outstanding lawyers. The firm goes the extra mile to research and assist. They helped me win a child support case in the Family court of New York by challenging equitable estoppel. I was the child's stepfather and the firm demonstrated that the Assignor did not establish an ongoing relationship between the child and myself. Lauren via diligent legal research and excellent case preparation dramatically helped with the cross examination results. Curt is a top notch professional that knows the law and it showed up in court. I would recommend them to anyone that needs the best lawyer to represent them. Exceptional results.

Mr. Curt Arnel consulted with me before entering into a second marriage. I found him to be extremely knowledgeable about how to protect each parties finances before and after entering into a marriage. It was a pleasure consulting with him and I would recommend him to my friends.
