Justice Wayne Saitta lectures Bay Ridge Lawyers Association at latest CLE
The Bay Ridge Lawyers Association (BRLA) hosted a Continuing Legal Education (CLE) meeting with Justice Wayne P. Saitta as the guest speaker at the Pearl Room on Third Avenue on Wednesday.
Dominic Famulari, a co-chair of the program committee, introduced Saitta, noting that the judge attended Georgetown as an undergrad, got his law degree from NYU School of Law and master’s degrees at NYU and Columbia. Famulari also told a story to explain Saitta’s character.
“A couple of clients had come to me with a matter, and in reviewing their deed, I saw the judge’s name on the return,” Famulari said. “I asked them if their attorney was Mr. Saitta. They said yes, and said they had heard that he had become a judge. Then they got very emotional and said that they would have never have been able to buy their house had he not helped to represent them in a nice fashion.”
