About Alex B.
Alex B. Pia built his legal foundation in New York. He earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in Business Management from Hofstra University, then went on to Brooklyn Law School where he received his J.D. The academic path combined business training and legal study, a practical pairing for practitioners who work at the intersection of commerce and contracts.
After law school Pia entered practice in New York. He is admitted to the New York bar and holds admissions in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. He has held membership in the State Bar of New York since 2015 and has been active in the New York City Bar Association since the same year.
Pia’s work has included a role as an associate at Belkin Burden Goldman. In that capacity he took on matters that drew on both transactional and litigation skills. Colleagues say he pays attention to the details that matter in construction-related disputes and contract questions, and he has applied legal research tools to complex factual records.
In 2021 Pia served as Subcommittee Chair for the New York City Bar Association Construction Law Committee. That role placed him in the middle of a professional forum where practitioners, in-house counsel and academics discuss construction law developments, emerging case law and practice issues. The chairmanship reflects involvement in the professional community rather than a ceremonial title alone; it involved organizing discussions and steering the committee’s work on specific topics.
Pia has invested in professional research training. He holds certified professional research credentials from both LexisNexis and Westlaw. Those certifications underscore a comfort with primary-source research and the databases lawyers use daily to prepare filings, draft contracts and track precedent.
Across his career Pia has combined a business background and courtroom admissions to assist clients in New York state and federal courts. His memberships in the State Bar of New York and the New York City Bar Association have provided a platform for committee work and peer exchange. He maintains courtroom admissions in both the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York and continues to practice in matters related to construction law and commercial disputes.
He concentrates his current practice on construction law and related commercial litigation matters.
