Jonathan Heidelberger

OF COUNSEL

JONATHAN HEIDELBERGER (Of Counsel) received his Juris Doctor from Cornell University Law School in 1973 and his B.A. from Cornell University College of Arts and Sciences in 1970. He is admitted to practice law in New York and U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York. Jon is certified by NYSED as a Special Education Impartial Hearing Officer and is a member of the Nassau County Bar Association. He became associated with the firm in July 2010 and has spent over 40 years actively engaged in every aspect of public school district representation. He has successfully represented school districts in countless rounds of collective bargaining, including mediation; fact finding and super conciliation; hearings and proceedings before PERB and other administrative agencies; negligence and civil rights defense in both state and federal court and before the EEOC, OCR, and SDHR; competitive bidding disputes; all types of appeals to the Commissioner; and certificated and non-certificated employee and student disciplinary proceedings. His depth of experience in the general practice of law has enabled him to develop a special expertise regarding real property law as it relates to school districts. As such, he has successfully negotiated and completed the acquisition, use, leasing, and disposition of numerous parcels of real property on behalf of his school district clients. He presents twice a year at the Eastern Suffolk BOCES Clerks' Workshop on such issues as elections, FOIL, Open Meetings, FERPA, and clerk's responsibilities generally. He and Laura Ferrugiari also conduct our in-house school district election workshop for our district clerks, central office staff and board members. Having represented a number of public libraries over the years, he has also developed an expertise in the law as it relates to public libraries and their relationship with their local school districts. He also served as Village Attorney or Assistant Village Attorney for the villages of Asharoken and Northport for many years and is currently special counsel to the Northport Board of Zoning Appeals. In addition, Jon has maintained an active general practice serving private clients including one of the largest school bus transportation companies on Long Island.
