Admitted to the New York and New Jersey Bar Associations, local Federal courts and the United States Supreme Court, Elan Wurtzel earned his legal degree at the prestigious New York University Law School (NYU). Elan Wurtzel is a member of multiple area bar associations and the New York State Trial Lawyers Association.

Elan Wurtzel extends his passion and dedication that he has for his law practice to my community. Elan enjoys his work as a member of the Plainview-Old Bethpage Chamber of Commerce board of directors. As its president from 2014-2018, the chamber experienced historic growth. One of Elan’s proudest accomplishments during this time was the commissioning of an elegant 9/11 Memorial sculpture at my town’s library. It contains a piece of steel from the World Trade Center and stands as a testament to our community’s resilience and a symbol of hope for future generations.

In addition to Elan’s service in various professional and bar associations, he has coached soccer and basketball, acted mentor at the Jericho Middle School, and been an adviser to his local high school mock trial team (Plainview-Old Bethpage JFK High School). He is also an avid reader, gardener, and bicyclist. A Plainview resident for 32 years, Elan resides with my wife, Gail. I am a proud father to our sons Matthew and Joshua and am enjoying my newest role as an enthusiastic grandfather.
