Justin M. Block has been in practice since 1988, and is admitted to practice in the New York State courts as well as the United States District Courts in the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York.

He is well-known in the Courts on Long Island as a fierce yet practical advocate for his clients, while always keeping an eye on the client's bottom line.

Justin is the Second Vice-President of the Suffolk County Bar Association, serving on the Executive Committee and Board of Directors.
