We are proud to announce that five attorneys from Federman Steifman LLP have been selected for inclusion in the 2025 edition of New York Super Lawyers, a distinction that recognizes outstanding attorneys who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement.

Among the honorees, Peter J. Mannarino and Lee D. Edelson were named to the New York Super Lawyers list, while Jennifer Dalli, Jesse Kantor and Kathryn Lecusay were, again, recognized as Rising Stars.

The Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists are compiled through a rigorous selection process that includes independent research, peer nominations, and peer evaluations. No more than 5% of attorneys in each state are named to the Super Lawyers list, and no more than 2.5% are selected as Rising Stars.

This recognition reflects our attorneys’ dedication to excellence, integrity, and exceptional client service. We congratulate each of them on this well-deserved honor.
