2023 ‘Brooklyn Power 100’ list reveals borough’s legal heavyweights
List includes both Corporation Counsel Hinds-Radix and BWBA President Radix
The who’s who of Kings County, New York has recently been unveiled in the “2023 Brooklyn Power 100” list published by City & State: New York. The list, a kaleidoscope of influence, is populated by figures from various spheres of Brooklyn society, with the legal community well-represented among the top honorees.
Despite not being a lawyer himself, Brooklyn Mayor Eric Adams tops the list. Known as a good friend of the legal community, Adams’ rise to power was aided in large part by Frank Carone and Hon. Frank Seddio, both past presidents of the Brooklyn Bar Association.
The first member of the legal community on the list and fourth overall is Letitia James, the state’s attorney general and a proud Brooklyn native. District Attorney Eric Gonzalez ranks sixth, followed by current Brooklyn Law School student and chair of the Brooklyn Democratic Party, Rodneyse Bichotte Hermelyn, who lands in the ninth spot.
