Attorney Sandak, a Stamford native, has practiced in Connecticut for nearly thirty five years. He has extensive trial experience in personal injury litigation, but in the last decade he has concentrated on commercial litigation, including zoning litigation, tax appeals, and complex condemnation, business torts, contracts, and land use litigation. He has recently been recognized as one of the "Best Lawyers" in the New York Tri-State Region in the field of commercial litigation and “Best Lawyers in America-2007”.

A significant part of attorney Sandak's practice has involved ADR and he is frequently retained by private parties to serve as a mediator. He served as Corporation Counsel for the City of Stamford in 1984 & 1985. Since then he has continued to be involved in a wide range of municipal law issues and has represented the police unions in Stamford and Greenwich. He holds B.A. degree from Colby College, 1968 and J.D. degree from Syracuse University, 1971.
