Brooklyn Brandeis Society finds its place in Brooklyn’s legal community
The Brooklyn legal society is made up of many different groups and organizations, some of which have been around since before Brooklyn was even a borough. However, it is one of the newest groups that is quickly gaining membership and respect.
The Brooklyn Brandeis Society (BBS) is a group of Jewish judges, attorneys and other members of the legal community who have come together as an organization to celebrate the culture and heritage of Jewish people.
“We have judges and lawyers [and] we have a number of non-lawyer individuals who are a part of the legal community,” said BBS President Hon. Miriam Cyrulnik. “There are [also] people who are not Jewish. We started with six founding members and are now, as of tonight, at 54.”
