About
After a successful legal career in the corporate world of New York City, I decided to return to the practice of law in its purest and most rewarding form – where a lawyer establishes a close, one-on-one working relationship with a client who requires counseling or representation in litigation or other proceedings. On a legal landscape where too often establishing a meaningful connection with the client is lost among less important considerations, my practice is founded on the belief that the personal attention of an experienced, thoughtful and committed counselor is the key element necessary for success. I chose the beautiful Hudson Valley for my practice, where the pace of life is different, but the need for quality legal representation is just as critically important.I am the founder and principal attorney of Lawrence S. Menkes P.C., with an office in Stone Ridge, New York, serving clients in Ulster County, as well as aurrounding areas. I am an experienced litigator and family law attorney who has been advising clients for more than 30 years. I have the knowledge and skill necessary to achieve a favorable resolution of your case and to provide the guidance and support you need to protect your rights.

Attorney Lawrence Menkes is the law advocate for our young granddaughter and has been for the past three years. During this time he gained her trust and friendship as he fought to protect and ensure her well being in and out of court. He has shown remarkable endurance and unwavering focus for advocating what’s best for her. Our family is eternally grateful for his compassion, commitment and courage under relentless opposition.
Larry definitely goes above and beyond his duties in advocating for children. He took significant time to get to know my daughter -and continues to make time for her - and makes himself available by phone and in person. Throughout a very stressful, complicated, legal process Larry stayed objective, involved and fully invested in achieving the best possible outcome for my daughter. He returns contact quickly and explains legal issues and potential solutions in easily understandable language. He de escalated stress for my family with his legal knowledge and experience, but also through his genuine concern for my daughter's wellness. I know he has other clients but anytime I interact with him I feel like my case is his only one.
Larry was fast and efficient in helping me with my case. He explained the process to me in terms that were easy to understand. I was pleased with the outcome of my experience and I am confident in Larry's skill and expertise. I will be happy to refer him or work with him in the future.
Mr. Menkes was our attorney in an extensive and complicated child custody litigation. His experience along with his insights were invaluable to our family. Mr. Menkes established a secure relationship with my son and was committed to advocating on my son's behalf. He was available and responsive to all parties and took the time to get to know my son and recommend actions that were in my son's best interests.
Mr.Menkes is one amazing person. He is beyond great at his job but that in combination with his heart of gold, you can rest assured that you are in good hands! He went above and beyond what was required of him being my son's law guardian and couldn't ask for more. He answered all of my questions without hesitated and with great explanation. Thank you again and again!
I've used Larry several times with my small business and he was incredibly helpful and considerate of my needs. He has assisted me with the following: -Represented me against an onerous non-compete agreement with a former employer -Created a contract for all my employees to sign before working with me -Helped collect monies owed from clients who refused to pay. He's fast, responds within 24 hours and gets right down to it. He's ruthless (in a kind and great way!) He is very has a strong moral compass which I really appreciated.
Larry handled a difficult medico legal case for me fighting an inspiration acne company that refused to pay for services delivered after they had agreed in writing for me to do them. He was swift, strong, and won the case.
Attorney Lawrence Menkes made us feel so comfortable throughout our entire attorney / client relationship. He worked extremely hard to make sure we had every opportunity to win our case and with his hard work we did!!! We highly recommend him.. After our case was finished we asked him to please be our attorney for any of our business needs and he accepted and it has been such an amazing relationship. Thank you again and we would love to be a recommendation anytime.
