Brooklyn shines bright with the return of local bar associations
After taking a brief hiatus during the summer, the local bar associations will return to action this week and, appropriately, the Columbian Lawyers Association will kick off the return to action.
The Columbian Lawyers Association of Brooklyn is one of the most influential local bar associations and that was on display this past June when Mayor Eric Adams was on hand to personally oversee the transition from outgoing president Salvatore Scibetta to incoming president Yolanda Guadagnoli.
Even the judge who performed the ceremony, Hon. Carl Landicino, a past president of the Columbian Lawyers Association, has since been elevated to the Appellate Division, Second Department.
