With a JD from NYU School of Law and a BA in political science from Rutgers College, Deborah brings a passion for working with non-profit organizations. She began her law career working at the firms of Patterson, Belknap, Webb & Tyler and Chadbourne & Parke. She went on to work for the national office of the “I Have a Dream”® Foundation and the Entertainment Software Association. But the immediate backstory on her formation of Deborah Buyer Law was her time as General Counsel for the New York City Department of Small Business Services. While there, Deborah identified the New York non-profit community’s great need for sophisticated and cost effective legal counsel, and decided to form Deborah Buyer Law in 2011. She says, “I’m essentially a corporate lawyer for non-profits. This is very much a social entrepreneurship. Non-profits are doing things I care about.” Deborah is a member of Nonprofit NY's Government Affairs Committee, NYC Bar Association and Nonprofit Westchester.
