About

Volunteer PositionsPlainview-Old Bethpage Chamber of Commerce - PresidentNassau County Bar Association - MentorNassau County Bar Association - Coach, High School Mock Trial Team Why I Became a LawyerWhen I was growing up, like other boys my age, I wanted to be a fireman, baseball player, farmer or an astronaut! When I got older, I watched my brother attend medical school and thought, "That's interesting!" When I saw his medical textbooks, it didn't look too interesting.In college I became active in several social action groups, working with senior citizens and becoming active in a Speaker's Bureau. I met a lot of different people, and saw families struggle through difficult times and triumph over their obstacles.I thought about the things I liked to do: meet new people, learn new things and help solve problems. Becoming a lawyer seemed to be an ideal profession where I could do all of these things.I attended NYU Law School and found that the law was an exciting place for new ideas and challenging solutions to the issues of the day. When I began practicing law, I discovered that I could help people and make a difference in someone's life. My passion and dedication to practicing law were born!Practicing law is like solving a jigsaw puzzle: Where are the missing pieces? How do they fit? What will it eventually look like? It's exciting, challenging and fulfilling.Each day I meet new people and learn new things. I use the law to help people find solutions to their concerns and make an impact on their lives: recovering from a serious accident, going through a difficult divorce or planning for the future.While I'm not a fireman, baseball player, farmer or astronaut, I'm very proud and happy to be a lawyer!

My husband and I hired Mr. Wurtzel for the closing of our house. It was a stressful time but the fact that he was responsive to our calls and emails and open to hearing our thoughts (the previous lawyer we used was not), made the process easier. He also has a calming temperment, which is VERY RARE from our experience, and he works efficiently. His years of experience were evident in his clear thinking and in his succint writing. We felt like we were in good hands so we also hired him for a separate deed transfer. His fees were very reasonable, especially for the amount of work he put in (the buyers were difficult and Mr. Wurtzel handled the additional negotations). I recommend this level-headed, hardworking, and kind lawyer.

100% satisfied. Mr Wurtzel negotiated a quick and easy settlement after my husband tripped and fell on an uprooted sidewalk, and cracked a rib. He took no money upfront, and was always personally available to take our calls.
