About Ernest
Ernest Spivak practices law across two states and at a single firm where he is a partner. He earned his undergraduate degree from Rutgers University–Camden in 2009 and completed his law degree at Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University in 2012. Those academic stops set the foundation for a practice centered on courtroom work and client counseling in New York and New Jersey.
After law school, Spivak built his career at Caesar, Napoli & Spivak PLLC, where he has advanced to a partner role. The title reflects both responsibility for client matters and a hand in running the office. He is admitted to practice in New York and New Jersey and routinely handles filings and appearances in both states.
Colleagues say Spivak brings a practical approach to case preparation. He focuses on clear organization of facts, careful review of legal issues and steady attention to procedural demands. Those habits guide the work he oversees at the firm, from preparing pleadings to managing depositions and coordinating with experts when required.
His practice life involves regular courtroom time and courtroom preparation. He manages litigation that must progress through state court dockets in New York and New Jersey. That means keeping up with differing local rules, motion practice schedules and calendar management in more than one jurisdiction. The dual-state practice requires attention to administrative detail as well as strategic planning for hearings and trial dates.
As a partner, Spivak also contributes to client intake and case strategy discussions. He works alongside other attorneys at Caesar, Napoli & Spivak PLLC to assign tasks, manage deadlines and ensure each matter proceeds efficiently. That role blends hands-on legal work with supervisory responsibilities.
Outside the office, his professional profile is shaped by the institutions that trained him: Rutgers–Camden for undergraduate study and Hofstra Law for his J.D. Those credentials are part of the background he brings to the practice table. He remains active in handling matters through his firm, often steering cases that require coordination across state lines.
