About Miro
Miro Lati combines training in accounting and law in a practice that spans state and federal courts. He earned a B.S. in accounting from Yeshiva University in 2006 and a J.D. from Maurice A. Deane School of Law at Hofstra University in 2009. That educational combination informs how he approaches legal problems. Numbers matter to him. Paperwork does too.
After law school he moved into legal practice and established himself in jurisdictions across New York and New Jersey. He is admitted to the bars of New Jersey and New York, and to the U.S. District Courts for the Eastern, Southern and Western Districts of New York. Those admissions allow him to take cases in both state and federal forums.
His accounting background shapes the work he does. He reads financial documents in a way that helps frame legal questions. That skill is useful in matters that require careful review of records, whether in bench proceedings, regulatory reviews, or contested disputes. He often approaches problems by isolating the core financial facts first, then building the legal argument around them.
In court he presents technical information in clear terms. Colleagues say he focuses on clarity when explaining complex financial points to judges, juries, and opposing counsel. He prepares written submissions that aim to translate numbers into narrative. He also spends time on the transactional side, where accuracy in financial documentation can determine the outcome of negotiations.
Lati’s background gives him a particular comfort with documents: ledgers, tax records, balance sheets and the routine filings that underpin many business disputes. He prefers methodical work. He checks details. He tests assumptions. That approach affects how he organizes discovery and how he marshals expert testimony when it is needed.
Outside of court appearances he has worked on matters that require coordination across multiple venues. Those matters sometimes call for managing parallel proceedings in state court and federal court at the same time. His admissions to the Eastern, Southern and Western Districts of New York make that possible without additional procedural hurdles.
He maintains a practice serving clients in New York and New Jersey and in federal courts including the Eastern, Southern and Western Districts of New York.
