She attended New York University and graduated from the School of Law at St. John's University, passing the bar exam in 1940. In 1937 she married lawyer Herbert Burstein and she practiced for a time in his law firm before founding Burstein & Agata, a firm specializing in family law, in 1958. The Bursteins had six children. Burstein was the first woman appointed to the New York State Commission of Correction; appointed in 1955, she served until 1961.
