About David P.
David P. Badanes combines a math-and-computer-science background with a law degree. He earned a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and a Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics from S.U.N.Y. at Stony Brook in 2000. He continued his studies at St. John’s School of Law, receiving a Juris Doctor in 2003. He finished in the top ten percent of his class and served on the St. John’s Law Review staff.
Soon after law school, Badanes set up his own practice. He opened Badanes Law Office in 2004 and has led the firm since then. That early decision has shaped his professional path. He has built a practice that reflects his litigation interests and the committee work he has pursued over the years.
He is admitted to practice in New York. His memberships paint a clear picture of the types of matters he handles. Since 2003 he has been a member of the New York State Bar Association. His local bar involvement includes membership in the Nassau County Bar Association beginning in 2012 and the Suffolk County Matrimonial Association since 2008. He belongs to Nassau and Suffolk county criminal defense committees and to matrimonial law committees within the Nassau County Bar Association. He joined the New York State Defenders Association in 2013.
Committee work often runs alongside courtroom work for Badanes. The listings suggest regular engagement in both criminal defense and matrimonial matters. He represents clients in criminal cases and handles family law disputes. He appears in county-level matters and participates in bar association discussions on criminal and matrimonial practice. His technical undergraduate training informs his approach to evidence and case analysis.
Badanes has also been involved in local education governance. He serves as a board trustee on the Northport-East Northport Board of Education, representing the East Northport area. That role involves school oversight and interaction with community stakeholders. It places him in public meetings and local policy discussions beyond his law practice.
He remains based at Badanes Law Office and continues to handle cases arising in Nassau and Suffolk counties. He maintains active memberships in professional associations and committees relevant to criminal defense and matrimonial law. His current practice focuses on representing individuals in criminal matters and advising clients in family law disputes.
