Danielle Pradas

Danielle is a Partner with the law firm of Abrams Fensterman, located in Lake Success, NY. She primarily practices Elder Law and she handles all aspects of Article 81 guardianship proceedings for both individuals and institutional clients, including nursing homes and hospitals. She also practices Mental Health Law dealing with the retention and treatment of patients in psychiatric facilities. Danielle holds a BA from Fordham University and a JD from Hofstra University.

Danielle is married to Joe Pradas and they have two children: Zachary, who is an active and heart healthy toddler, and Olivia, who is a heart warrior who was born with Tetralogy of Fallot. At six weeks old, Olivia underwent open heart surgery at CHONY to repair the defect. Surgery was a success and Olivia is thriving. Olivia is expected to need at least one more surgery in her lifetime for a Pulmonary Valve Replacement. Danielle hopes that through her work with The Children’s Heart Foundation, she will raise funds to support CHD research so that more children, like Olivia, will live long and happy lives and that the options for repairing these defects will be less invasive.
