Columbian Lawyers Association, Inc.
About Columbian Lawyers Association, Inc.
About fifty years ago, a small group of lawyers of Italian heritage in Queens County were determined to form an association known as the Columbian Lawyers Association, Inc. Today there are other Columbian Lawyers Associations in New York State and other states and counties throughout the United States, but we are the oldest 'Columbian Lawyers' association in New York.
Our association, as the 'grandfather' organization was able to assist and guide many of the new groups in their formative years and they, in turn, have assisted other groups, so that today we continue to grow and progress. In fact, not too long ago, an umbrella group called the “Confederation of Columbian Lawyer’s Association” came into existence in the local New York metropolitan area, and is attended by various members and officers of the county “CLA’S.”
The members of the Columbian Lawyers Association join us primarily to experience the warm collegiality of fellow attorneys who share a common heritage, ancestry, and love of things Italian: food, wine, and culture. Newcomers to our regular meetings and events, are welcomed like family, because the Columbian Lawyers Association is not a stuffy group of attorneys, but an Italian family.
If you are a law student, newly admitted attorney or just started practicing in Queens County, becoming an active member of the Columbian Lawyers Association is a great way to network in a convivial atmosphere. Our membership includes judges from all our courts, and practitioners with a wide range of knowledge and experience.
