Muttontown

Muttontown

Located within the Town of Oyster Bay, in Long Island, New York, the incorporated village of Muttontown is just one of the many areas within the Nassau County locality. Business Week considers Muttontown to be one of the wealthiest areas currently within America, and the village - including its surrounding areas - help to make up the area known as the "Gold Coast" of Long Island. Historically home to some of the most affluent families ever to call New York home, Muttontown is brimming with interesting local records, and the name of the village itself stems from the former use of the location as a pasturage for sheep.

Similarly to many places throughout Nassau County and Long Island, Muttontown benefits from being situated within close proximity to the office of Mr. Darren M. Shapiro, which can be found on Jericho Turnpike - only a small distance from the Nassau County Family and Supreme courts. The legal office, along with the talent of Mr. Shapiro himself, provides personalized and carefully tailored representation to individuals in need of legal guidance, all for reasonable rates.
