Daniel M. Lipschutz

I represent individuals and families in complex domestic and international family law matters, including divorce, custody, asset division, child and spousal support, paternity, and business valuations. With significant experience in litigation, I have been consistently recognized in peer-reviewed surveys as a top matrimonial attorney in both New York and, more recently, Florida. Alongside litigation, I have handled numerous cases involving alternative dispute resolution, including arbitrations and mediations conducted locally, nationally, and internationally. My cases have drawn national and international media attention and often addressed landmark issues and matters of first impression. Some of my notable achievements include securing the return of two Ukrainian children to a non-country of habitual residence, obtaining an unequal distribution award in a long-term marriage that was later upheld on appeal, prevailing on an abuse of process claim in a divorce case involving the misuse of police to gain exclusive possession of a marital home—also upheld on appeal, and successfully enforcing an antenuptial agreement, resulting in money judgments exceeding $60 million. To protect the privacy of my clients, I do not disclose their names, but they are typically high- to ultra-high-net-worth individuals, athletes, or public figures. I am admitted to practice in both Florida and New York and have published and lectured extensively on various family law topics.
