Attorney Profile–Rudolph F. X. Migliore

The Family Lawyer

Meet Your Attorney

Rudolph Migliore, more commonly known as Rudy, is a well-known attorney with over 34 years of experience. Rudy has made Suffolk County, New York his home since 1963. He served in the U.S. Army National Guard from 1968 to 1974. A quintessential family man, Rudy strongly conveys this trait in his legal practice. Having four children of his own, ages 20, 18, 15 and 8, Rudy is well aware of the importance of family, the everyday challenges families face and the need to provide guidance for all members of the next generation to ensure the brightest future possible.

As a busy and active attorney, it is easy to forget the significance and relevance of family and community. However, Rudy always makes it a point to keep values and family at the top of his priority list. Recognizing family challenges and problems facing local communities, Rudy has dealt directly and compassionately with issues involving family, friends and complete strangers. For many who Rudy has helped, he has become “Uncle Rudy” and is always just a phone call away.

From the beginning of his legal career, Rudy observed that the majority of criminal cases involved young people who had gone astray. In representing them, he felt that it was not enough to merely resolve their legal difficulties, but to also lend a guiding hand in getting them onto a positive path in life. In the overwhelming majority of cases, positive results have been attained. Rudy enjoys a great sense of satisfaction seeing lives impacted for good.

For many years, Rudolph Migliore has insisted upon and takes pride in being active member in the local community, helping others and having a positive impact on those around him.

Rudy has incorporated over 400 churches and ministries on Long Island and throughout the greater New York area.
