Each year, the New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) bestows the Jonathan Lippman Award, which honors attorneys aged 55 or older who have demonstrated exceptional dedication to providing pro bono legal service to low-income New Yorkers in need. We are proud that NYSBA bestowed this prestigious award on Carolyn Kubitschek and Terzah Nasser, an Emeritus volunteer, this year.
Ms. Nasser is an attorney with over 28 years of municipal government experience with an emphasis on buildings, health, housing, transportation and various environmental and infrastructure related matters. She currently serves as a remote volunteer support staff member for the Senior Legal Advice Helpline at the Center for Elder Law and Justice through the New York State Attorney Emeritus Program. She received her J.D. from Pace University School of Law (now Elisabeth Haub), with certificates in Environmental Law and International Law, an M.S. in Environmental Health Science from Hunter College (C.U.N.Y.), School of Health Sciences (now Health Professions) and a B.A. from the University of Rochester.
Congratulations to both Ms. Nasser and Ms. Kubitschek for receiving the 2024 Jonathan Lippman Award!
