Ms. Flanzig has been an active litigator in New York for the past seventeen years.

Her practice includes many issues that are uniquely significant to women, including failure to diagnose breast cancer as well as the failure to provide adequate security or protection that results in sexual assaults or attacks on women. In addition to practicing general negligence, Cathy has concentrated in insurance coverage issues, including Uninsured Motorist and No-Fault Coverage disputes.

She heads the firm's Appellate Practice and has successfully argued cases in the Appellate Division of the State. Ms. Flanzig has recently been appointed as an official Court Mediator in the Supreme Court, Nassau County to serve on a Panel of attorneys chosen to mediate significant personal injury cases.
