About Benjamin
Benjamin Notterman entered the study of law after an undergraduate degree in psychology at Cornell University. He earned his B.A. in 2009 and went on to receive a J.D. from New York University School of Law in 2014. The academic path combined social science training with professional legal education, a mix that informs his approach to client work and legal analysis.
After law school, Notterman began building a practice in New York. He is licensed to practice in the state and is listed as a lawyer at the Law Office of Zachary Margulis-Ohnuma. His résumé reflects the typical arc of a young attorney who moved from classroom theory to courtroom procedure and client counseling.
Colleagues describe him as attentive to factual detail and methodical in preparation. He spends time on legal research and written advocacy, tasks that are central to litigation and transactional work alike. Notterman’s background in psychology gives him tools for interviewing clients and evaluating witness accounts. It also helps when he must translate complex legal issues into clear explanations for people without legal training.
His work at the Law Office of Zachary Margulis-Ohnuma places him in a small-firm setting. There, junior and midlevel lawyers often carry a broad caseload. Notterman has taken on responsibilities that include drafting pleadings, preparing discovery, and appearing in court when appropriate. The environment requires versatility. It also gives him regular chances to interact directly with clients and opposing counsel.
Outside the office, Notterman’s public profile is modest. There are no widely reported cases or publications tied to his name that are part of the public record. He appears to concentrate on steady practice development rather than public-facing scholarship or high-profile litigation.
As an attorney whose training spans psychology and law, Notterman blends analytical work with client-facing tasks. He is based in New York and continues to practice at the Law Office of Zachary Margulis-Ohnuma, representing clients in New York state matters.
