Abrams Fensterman, alongside other law firms, has issued a letter to local law school deans, emphasizing the urgent need for a strong stance against antisemitic conduct in academic institutions. 

The letter, supported by firms like Harris Beach PLLC and L’Abbate, Balkan, Colavita & Contini, L.L.P., expresses deep disappointment in the inadequate response from many law schools to the increase in antisemitic incidents and rhetoric, especially following the tragic events of October 7, 2023, involving Hamas.

The letter states, “We have witnessed a disturbing increase in virulent anti-Israel, anti-Jewish speech on university campuses that goes well beyond the bounds of protected expression and, instead, seeks to incite listeners and readers to imminent violence and other unlawful acts against members of the Jewish community and others who support Israel.”
