What Makes Us Different

Court Intelligence That Does Not Exist Anywhere Else.

Every legal data company analyzes the public record. Rulings, docket entries, case outcomes. None of them can tell you what happens when you actually walk into the courtroom.

We can. After 27 years and thousands of appearances, we have built an operational intelligence database covering what the published rules do not: which parts are slow, which judges handle matters personally versus through clerks, which courtrooms require caselaw citations on the spot, and where you should block your entire morning.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a per diem attorney?
A per diem attorney makes court appearances on behalf of another attorney's client. When you have scheduling conflicts, multiple courts on the same day, or cases in unfamiliar jurisdictions, a per diem attorney steps in as your courtroom representative. Unlike per diem platforms that dispatch random contract lawyers, the Law Office of Frederic R. Abramson sends senior attorneys with more than 15 years of courtroom experience who know the judges, the clerks, and how each part operates.
How much does per diem court coverage cost?
The standard rate is $250 per appearance for court conferences and compliance conferences in any of the courts we cover. Rates for contested motions, oral arguments, and specialty parts may vary. There are no retainer fees and no hidden charges. You receive a detailed post-appearance report the same day, typically within two hours of the appearance.
What courts do you cover?
We cover all five New York City boroughs: New York County (Manhattan), Kings County (Brooklyn), Bronx County, Queens County, and Richmond County (Staten Island), plus Nassau County, Suffolk County, and Orange County. For pro hac vice matters, we also serve as local counsel in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (SDNY) and the Eastern District of New York (EDNY).
What is pro hac vice and do I need local counsel in New York?
Pro hac vice admission allows an attorney not licensed in New York to appear in a New York court for a specific case. Under New York rules (22 NYCRR 520.11), the court may require you to designate local counsel. As your local counsel, Frederic R. Abramson handles the admission application, monitors local filing requirements, attends court appearances when needed, and ensures compliance with New York's procedural rules. Admitted to the NY Bar, SDNY, and EDNY.
How quickly can you confirm a court appearance?
Most appearances are confirmed within 15 minutes of your request. For same-day or morning-of emergencies, call or text 917-686-3827. We maintain a team of senior attorneys across all coverage areas so we can respond to last-minute needs without compromising quality.
What do I receive after a court appearance?
You receive a detailed written report the same day, typically within two hours. The report covers what happened in court, what the judge said, any deadlines set, next steps, and strategic observations about the part and the judge's tendencies. This is operational court intelligence, not a generic check-the-box summary.
