"Individuals Working for a Better Community"
Jacobowitz & Gubits, LLP's commitment to our clients doesn't stop with individual families and businesses, but extends to the community in which we all live. Our attorneys and staff don't just work and live in the Hudson River Valley, they commit their energies, talents and personal time to local charitable causes, serve on the boards of and represent local not-for-profit organizations, provide educational speakers for local civic groups, and coach local teams. We get out there and get involved. Please take a look at some examples of our commitment to the community.
