About Ayalah
Ayalah Jesselson earned her J.D. from Fordham University School of Law in 2005. Her time at Fordham shaped a practical approach to dispute resolution and client counseling. She left law school prepared for courtroom work and alternative dispute processes, and she has built a practice that reflects both paths.
She is admitted to practice in New York and New Jersey. Over the years she has taken on roles beyond traditional advocacy. She serves as a certified arbitrator for the Nassau County Court Fee Arbitration Panel. She is also a certified mediator through the NY Peace Institute. Those credentials have placed her on panels and in conference rooms where settlements are reached and fee issues are resolved without protracted litigation.
Jesselson practices at Abraham & Jesselson Law Group, LLC. The firm listing associates her name with ongoing client matters on both sides of the Hudson. At the firm she balances advocacy for individual clients with neutral roles in mediation and arbitration. That mix has kept her involved in contested matters as well as in processes designed to limit the time and cost of disputes.
Her arbitration certification is a practical credential. It authorizes her to hear and decide attorney fee disputes brought before the Nassau County panel. Her mediator credential from the NY Peace Institute signals training in negotiated settlements and interest-based bargaining. Those certifications are concrete additions to the license to practice law she holds in two states.
Colleagues describe her work as steady and process-oriented. She tends to favor clear, direct processes in case management and settlement talks. In mediation sessions she works to identify leverage points and practical solutions. When acting as an arbitrator she follows established rules and panel procedures to produce reasoned outcomes.
Outside the panels, her practice handles the everyday demands of clients who require counsel in New York and New Jersey. That includes preparing for hearings, drafting submissions for panels and courts, and guiding clients through settlement negotiations. She keeps an eye on procedural detail and the deadlines that can decide a case.
As of 2026, Jesselson continues to serve clients and offer dispute-resolution services through Abraham & Jesselson Law Group, LLC. Her current practice focuses on client representation in New York and New Jersey and on serving as a mediator and arbitrator in fee and civil disputes.
