Surrogate Gigante gives CLE at Bay Ridge Lawyers Association meeting
The Bay Ridge Lawyers Association (BRLA) hosted Hon. Robert J. Gigante, Richmond County Surrogate, and three other attorneys for a Continuing Legal Education (CLE) lecture on 17-A Guardianships during its monthly meeting at The Pearl Room last Wednesday.
Surrogate Gigante was joined by colleagues Laura Lopez Keegan, Kevin M. Elford, Chief Clerk Ronald M. Cerrachio and Anthony J. Pocchia as each person had an opportunity to lecture on the specifics of the guardianship procedures.
“The judge is a former Dongan Hills attorney and an active community leader serving as a volunteer in many organizations benefitting Staten Island’s youth and underprivileged,” said Dominic Famulari. “One of the things about the judge’s resume is his steadfast community service and his interest in helping young people. He’s a former state Supreme Court judge for the second district and is a frequent lecturer so we are thrilled to have him speak for us.”
