A partner at Green Kaminer Min & Rockmore LLP, Richard Min compassionately guides clients through family law issues such as divorce, child custody, child support and same-sex matters. His practice is based in New York City, New York, primarily serving Brooklyn, Manhattan and Long Island. However, he also handles child abduction cases, for which he extends his service nationwide.
Mr. Min graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 2003 from Tufts University. He then earned a law degree from Brooklyn Law School.
Any legal dispute in a family understandably creates concerns about someone’s future, relationships and finances. Mr. Min is adept at creating solutions that preserve a client’s rights.

He promptly responds to clients’ questions and provides them with honest advice about their case. When the stakes are high, Mr. Min is the experienced, knowledgeable attorney people want on their side.
Thorough and assertive, Mr. Min has advocated for clients in a number of legal settings. He has been licensed to practice for more than a decade. In that time, he has negotiated fair settlements and set his clients up for a bright future. When necessary, he is prepared to go to court to secure the best possible outcome. In fact, he has successfully litigated several cases regarding child abduction in Arkansas, Florida, Missouri, New York, California and South Carolina.
Mr. Min is a member of the International Academy of Family Lawyers.
