Bay Ridge Lawyers swear in Lisa Becker as president
The Bay Ridge Lawyers Association (BRLA) held its Passing of the Gavel ceremony at Hunters Steakhouse in Bay Ridge on Wednesday night, when Hon. Matthew D’Emic swore in the association’s new officers, directors and incoming president, Lisa M. Becker.
The other officers taking on new roles include Grace M. Borrino as vice president, Stephen A. Spinelli as secretary, Margaret M. Stanton as treasurer and Joseph R. Vasile as corresponding secretary.
Becker, a Staten Island native who has been a member of the BRLA for 15 years and recently recovered from a battle with leukemia, was thrilled to take over the prestigious role.
“These people mean so much to me that I consider this a huge accomplishment to take over the role as president,” Becker said. “I’m very excited and I’m looking forward to a wonderful year.”
