Different Legal Needs,

One New York-Based Team

Legal issues rarely fit neatly into one category, and it’s common to feel unsure which lawyer you actually need. You may be dealing with an injury, planning your estate, facing a real estate dispute, or applying for disability benefits—and not know where to start. At Simon & Gilman LLP, our Queens Boulevard office in Elmhurst serves clients across the borough with practical guidance shaped by decades of local experience. Since 1978, we’ve helped individuals and families in New York move from uncertainty to clear next steps.

Legal Name Changes

Whether for personal, family, or legal reasons, changing your name requires filing the correct paperwork and meeting court requirements. We guide you through the local court process step by step to ensure everything is properly prepared and submitted.

Serving New York from our office at 91-31 Queens Blvd Suite 411, Simon & Gilman LLP works with clients throughout Elmhurst and surrounding neighborhoods who want a firm that understands local courts, property practices, and insurance dynamics.

Not Sure Where To Start?

It’s normal to wonder whether your issue falls under personal injury, estate planning, real estate, or another category. Many clients call with questions like, “Can one firm handle both injury and estate matters?” or “Which practice area should I pick?” We offer a no-pressure initial consultation so you can explain your situation, understand your options, and decide on next steps without being pushed into the wrong service.
