A few weeks ago I was honored by the local City Councilman Mike Treyger and Chaim Deutsch for working with the indigent Russian speaking elderly population in my community, Brighton Beach.

I am grateful to CUNY Law School and Councilman Chaim Deutsch for sponsoring this amazing program to allow attorneys to work in our communities and provide access to legal services to the elderly, who are often isolated and unable to access legal services in their native language.
