Sydney Lim is a New York matrimonial and family law attorney. Before founding her firm, she practiced at Blank Rome LLP and Krauss Shaknes Tallentire & Messeri LLP, where she litigated and negotiated complex divorces and other family law matters for high- and ultra-high-net-worth clients.
A skilled trial lawyer with a strong litigation background, Sydney brings the same rigor and precision to every matter she handles, whether it ends in a courtroom or a settlement.
She founded Lim Legal & Consulting with a clear philosophy: being prepared to litigate is not the same as wanting to. Her clients come to her when they want an attorney who will fight for them without making things harder than they need to be, and who will help them reach the other side on the right terms, with their lives and dignity intact.
