lear skies presented at Mamaroneck 

Beach & Yacht Club once again on June 

5, 2024, for the Westchester Women’s 

Bar Association Annual Dinner and Installation of 

Officers and Directors. Your host, for obvious 

reasons, had no jokes to share about the wildfire 

smoke that pushed the full event indoors last year. 

Not to dwell, because this year had a balmy beginning 

from the time of arrival for set-up and 

photographs, and the mood only livened once 

all members and guests joined for cocktail hour. 

The WWBA was honored to begin the 

evening’s program with remarks by WBASNY’s 

newly elected President Marea L. Wachsman. 

President Wachsman provided greetings to dinner 

attendees and spoke about the value of 

WBASNY membership, giving prominence to the 

many reasons to belong. President Wachsman 

also outlined her goals and agenda for the upcoming 

WBASNY year, and addressed some initiatives 

to be taken on, such as advocacy in sup-

PRESIDENT’S 

MESSAGE 

I cannot help 

but reflect on how 

lucky I am for having 

reaped the 

many benefits of 

all the Westchester 

Women’s Bar Association 

has had 

to offer for nearly 


two decades. In 

2006, I walked into the law firm of 

Rosenthal & Markowitz, LLP for a 

job interview with Past Westchester 

Women’s Bar Association Presidents 

Linda Markowitz, Esq. and Kathy N. 

Rosenthal, Esq. Their first question 

was, “Are you a member of the 

WWBA?” They immediately signed 

me up as a new member, then hired 

me, in that order! I am now President 

of this great organization during 

our 50th Year – our Golden Anniversary 

– which I hope to celebrate 

each and every month of my Presidency! 

I have had the opportunity to 

serve the Westchester Women’s Bar 

Association as Recording Secretary, 

Vice President, and, most recently, 

as President-Elect. For me, however, 

the most rewarding roles with the 

WWBA have been serving as cochair 

of both the Membership and 

Mentorship Committees. In these 

capacities, I am able to speak with 

individual Westchester Women’s Bar 

Association members, work with our 

attorney mentors and law student 

mentees, and get to know them as 

individuals. Each of our 550 memcontinued

President’s Message 

from page 1 

“Each of our 550 

members brings 

a unique set of 

incredible skills and 

accomplishments to 

the WWBA. The 

WWBA’s membership 

is our value, strength, 

and power.” 

bers brings a unique set of incredible 

skills and accomplishments to the 

WWBA. The WWBA’s membership is 

our value, strength, and power. 

As WWBA President, I am committed 

to expanding our membership but 

need your help. The WWBA, WBASNY, 

and other Bar Associations throughout 

the country are seeing steep declines 

in Bar membership. The American Bar 

Association has witnessed a 30% drop 

in member dues since 2017. Newly 

admitted attorneys are failing to see 

the value of Bar membership and seasoned 

attorneys who are Bar members 

will be retiring in the next decade as 

part of the “gray wave.” 

Our Westchester Women’s Bar Association 

membership declined during 

COVID but we have worked hard to 

increase membership to pre-pandemic 

levels and we are now the second largest 

chapter of WBASNY. My mission 

as President is to continue to build on 

this growth. The WWBA Mentorship 

Program is flourishing and we have 

over 100 student members who we 

work with to impart the value of the 

WWBA including professional development, 

networking and leadership 

opportunities. This year our mentorship 

committee paired dozens of student 

mentees with WWBA member attorneys 

and organized several programs 

for student mentees at the Elisabeth 

Haub School of Law at Pace Univer-

~ In Memoriam ~ 

HONORABLE SONDRA M. MILLER 

The WWBA’s beloved 

Founder, Past President and 

life-long devoted member, 

the Honorable Sondra M. 

Miller, passed away on August 

7th. The WWBA has 

felt her loss in a real and profound 

way. In many ways 

Judge Miller embodied and “was” the 

WWBA and it is difficult to contemplate 

going on without her. Judge 

Miller’s life and career were spent forwarding 

the WWBA’s mission of advancing 

the social, economic and legal 

status of women through the law. 

She was a pioneer, a warrior and one 

of a kind. 

Judge Miller graduated from 

Wellesley College in 1950 and Harvard 

Law School in 1953, as part of the 

law school’s first class to admit 

women. Her accomplishments in the 

legal community are almost too numerous 

to enumerate. Judge Miller 

joined the bench in 1983 when she was 

elected to the Westchester County 

Family Court. Three years later, she 

won election to the Supreme Court for 

the Ninth Judicial District. Judge Miller 

was designated to the Appellate Division, 

Second Department in January 

1990 and was the first woman from 

the Ninth Judicial District to earn this 

appointment. She retired from the 

bench in 2006. Following her retirement, 

Judge Miller served as distinguished 

judge-in-residence at Pace 

University Law School. She worked 

in private practice with McCarthy 

Fingar LLP as Chief Counsel and head 

of appellate practice and mediation and 

arbitration. Most recently and until her 

retirement, Judge Miller was Chief 

Counsel to the firm of Goldschmidt 

& Genovese LLP where she lead their 

Appellate Practice and Mediation and 

Arbitration Groups. 

Judge Miller was a tireless volunteer 

on judicial committees, bar associations, 

professional and civic organizations. 

She was a founding 

member of the WWBA and 

served as our President from 

1979-1981. Judge Miller also 

was a constant in WBASNY 

and served as a devoted member 

and as Vice-President. She 

served as co-chair of the New 

York State Family Violence Task Force, 

as Director of the Office of Family Services 

for the New York State Office of 

Court Administration, Director of Legal 

Services of the Hudson Valley, and 

Director of the Benjamin N. Cardozo 

Society. In 2004, she was appointed by 

Chief Judge Judith S. Kaye of the Court 

of Appeals to chair the newly created 

Matrimonial Commission to recommend 

reforms to the divorce process 

in New York. Judge Miller served as 

chair of the Ninth Judicial District Committee 

to Promote Gender Fairness in 

the Courts, Commissioner of the 

Governor’s Permanent Judicial Committee 

on Justice for Children, and Commissioner 

for the Study of Youth Crime 

and Violence and Reform of the Juvenile 

Justice System. 

Judge Miller also served on the 

Pace University Law School Board of 

Visitors, as vice president of the 

Harvard Law School Association, on the 

New York State Bar Association Committee 

on Courts and the Community, 

and as Director of the Association of 

Family and Conciliation Courts. She was 

a founding member and a devoted 

champion of the Judges and Lawyers 

Breast Cancer Alert, also serving as its 

president and vice president. 

Judge Miller’s achievements are incredible 

and numerous and the WWBA 

is grateful to call her our own. When 

we ask, “How can we go on without 

her?” The answer is that we have been 

afforded her leadership, knowledge, tenacity 

and spirit since the WWBA’s inception. 

She has prepared us and we 

are grateful. Thank you, Judge Miller 

– we will all miss you. ◗ 


Immediate Impact 

Scholarship 

Judge Sandra Forster (’79) and 

Adele Lerman Janow (’90) were long 

time members of the WWBA who 

passed away and for whom the Pace 

University Law School’s Alumni Association 

would like to honor with a named 

Immediate Impact Scholarship. Judge 

Forster was a vivacious, curious, and 

intellectual woman who loved the arts, 

culture, nature, and playing sports when 

girls were not always welcome to do so. 

She received a Bachelor’s degree from 

the University of Rochester, and attained 

her JD from Pace Law School while raising 

two children. She had a thriving 

legal career including serving as Town 

Justice in Greenburgh and was ever 

present and an integral part of he 

Westchester Women’s Bar Association. 

Adele Lerman Janow was a dedicated 

speech and language teacher, making 

a significant impact on emotionally and 

physically challenged children. She received 

her Bachelor’s degree from 

Emerson, a Master’s degree from NYU, 

and a JD from Pace Law. Her gratitude 

and commitment to service was evidenced 

by her serving as President of 

the Pace University Law School Alumni 

Association. 

To commemorate the lives of these esteemed 

women, Pace University School of 

Law’s Alumni Association is requesting donations 

for an Immediate Impact Scholarship 

with a goal of $5,000. Once the goal 

of $5000 is reached, the Judge Sandra 

Forster and Adele Lerman Janow Scholarship 

will be awarded as a one-time award 

to a current student at Haub Law.

Congratulations Joy! ◗ 

Joy S. Joseph, a distinguished 

member of the WWBA, 

was honored with the prestigious 

Stephanie Kupferman Juvenile 

Justice Award. This accolade is 

presented to a WBASNY member 

who has shown outstanding 

contributions in legal matters 

involving juveniles for three 

or more years, serving as a 

prosecutor, defense counsel, law 

guardian, or judge. Several 

WWBA members joined Joy and 

her husband Jorge Dopico at 

WBASNY’s Annual Convention 

in Saratoga, NY where she was 

granted the award at a ceremony. 

Joy earned her B.A. from 

Barnard College, Columbia 

University, and her J.D. from 

Temple University, Beasley School 

of Law. Joy is a solo practitioner 

in White Plains, NY, specializ- 

from page 3 

sity, including a family law panel, a career panel, and a 

speed networking event. Our goal is to engage our WWBA 

student members and encourage them to see the value of 

the Westchester Women’s Bar Association and to segue into 

full members upon graduation. 

What can you do? As a Westchester Women’s Bar Association 

member I am asking you to first renew your membership. 

Our membership year runs from June 1, 2024 to 

May 31, 2025. It is now September and if you have not 

renewed – please do so as soon as possible. Your timely 

renewal frees up our membership committee to focus on 

growth in new membership rather than chasing renewals. 

Additionally, please get involved. Come to our Board meetings, 

join a committee, and participate in our many volunteer 

opportunities. Finally, I am asking each and every current 

Westchester Women’s Bar Association member to bring 

in a new member to the WWBA. If each member can enroll 

one new member for the 2024-2025 year, we will 

double our membership. Again, since the WWBA’s value 

is our members, think of how much value each new member 

will contribute! 

I am thrilled to kick off this year. I look forward to 

expanding and growing the Westchester Women’s Bar Association 

with you! ◗

from page 1 

port of the Equal Rights 

Amendment (ERA) appearing 

on the ballot this November. 

Several of us had recently returned 

from the WBASNY 

Convention in Saratoga 

Springs where we not only 

celebrated the installation of 

President Wachsman, but celebrated 

our member Joy S. 

Joseph, Co-Chair of the 

Families, Children & Courts 

Committee, as she received 

the Stephanie Kupferman Juvenile 

Justice Award for her 

outstanding achievement in 

legal matters involving juveniles. 

Congratulations, Joy! 

Immediate Past President 

Amanda K. Rieben was honored 

with proclamations from 

Westchester County Executive 

George Latimer and New 

York State Senator Shelley 

Mayer. She began her outgoing 

remarks with a quote 

from Theodore Roosevelt, 

“Far and away the best prize 

that life offers is the chance 

to work hard at work worth 

doing.” With that theme in 

mind, Amanda gave an 

overview of the programs, 

events, and strides attributed 

to her tenure, performed with 

a sense of fulfillment through 

the benefits that the WWBA 

provides to the legal community. 

The WWBA is truly grateful 

to Amanda for her leadership 

this past year, as she 

worked devotedly to advance 

the mission of 

WBASNY and the WWBA, 

aided us through transitions 

including the hiring of our 

excellent new Executive Director, 

Megan Starstrom, and 

launched new initiatives with 

foresight, leaving the WWBA 

on even more solid ground 

for the years ahead. 

The Honorable Lisa Margaret 

Smith, retired Magistrate 

Judge for the Southern 

District of New York, and recent 

Past President of the 

WWBA (2020-2021), administered 

the oath of office 

to the incoming officers and 

directors, and was herself 

sworn in as a State Director 

later that evening. We were 

thrilled to have Judge Smith 

perform this role. 

Once sworn into office, 

our newly elected President 

Sherry A. Bishko took the podium 

for her enthusiastic first 

remarks, beginning with an 

account of her own initiation 

to the WWBA during a job 

interview with Past Presidents 

and law partners Linda 

Markowitz and Kathy N. 

Rosenthal. President Bishko 

then outlined a mission for the

the continued growth of the 

WWBA, and its robust initiatives, 

particularly at a time 

when bar association membership 

numbers have 

dropped nationally. Congratulations 

Sherry, and we 

look forward to your exceptional 

leadership as the year 

unfolds. 

The WWBA was finally 

treated to our keynote 

speaker for the evening, the 

Honorable Anthony 

Cannataro, Associate Judge 

of the New York State Court 

of Appeals. Judge 

Cannataro engaged the audience 

with humor and substance 

in an address that, 

among other topics, mused 

on how the effects of the pandemic 

might shape the next 

generation of attorneys. We

An Interview with Amanda K. Rieben 

Susan L. Pollet 

Chair of the Archive and 

Historian Committee 

Q: When and why did you 

become involved with the 

WWBA? 

A: I became involved with 

the WWBA in 2014 after the 

birth of my first daughter. I 

had been practicing at a 

non-profit in New York 

County and was looking to 

work in Westchester County, 

but I did not have any contacts 

and/or resources in the 

Westchester community. I felt 

that joining a bar association 

was the best way to 

make new contacts, as I explored 

different opportunities 

in the Westchester County 

legal community. 

The WWBA and its 

membership surpassed any 

expectations that I had. One 

of the WWBA members assisted 

me in my vocational 

search, putting me in contact 

with members of the 

community. She also provided 

me with invaluable 

advice and guidance on 

what programs and events 

to attend to further to make 

additional contacts and further 

explore my legal interests. 

Through her own vocational 

experiences and stories, 

she also helped me assess 

my future goals and aspirations. 

Q: In what ways have you 

been active in the WWBA? 

A: I have been active in the 

WWBA in many ways. I have 

served on the WWBA Board 

and as one of the Co-Chairs 

of the Families, Children 

and the Courts Committee 

the “FCC Committee”) since 

in or about 2018. In my role 

as Co-Chair of the FCC 

“I have spent all but one year of 

my legal career focusing on 

family and matrimonial law . . . I 

knew that I wanted to devote my 

career to assisting others with 

their family law related issues.” 

Committee, I have helped to 

plan several continuing legal 

education programs, as well as 

other lunch and learn opportunities 

and seminars. Additionally, 

I have served on the 

Annual Dinner Committee and 

have acted as a Mentor as part 

of the Mentorship Committee. 

I have also served as Recording 

Secretary, President 

Elect, and WWBA President. In 

my term as WWBA President, I 

made it a priority to further community 

integration and raise 

awareness to various social issues 

impacting individuals, 

with a particular focus on domestic 

violence. With the assistance 

of several non-profits 

in the legal community, including 

the Pace Women’s Justice 

Center, Hope’s Door, My Sisters’ 

Place, and Legal Services 

of the Hudson Valley, we hosted 

eight programs on domestic 

violence during my term. As 

WWBA President, I also focused 

my attention on the 

WWBA day-to-day operation 

and fiscal strength. With the 

support of our membership, 

board and officers and directors, 

we created new fundraising 

opportunities, membership benefits, 

and we made other 

changes to help the WWBA 

hopefully continue to grow. 

Currently, I am now serving 

as a WWBA State Director, 

as well as the WWBA liaison to 

the Women’s Bar Association 

of the State of New York 

(“WBASNY”) Domestic Violence 

Committee. In this capacity, 

I hope to become more involved 

at the state level with 

various issues impacting victims 

of domestic violence 

Q: Why do you think there is 

still a need for a women’s bar 

association? 

A: I believe that a women’s bar 

association is important to 

newer lawyers and law students 

to help them curate their legal 

interests and pursue various 

legal endeavors. Additionally, 

while one can attend CLE and 

other programs online, I 

strongly feel that there is no 

substitute for in-person networking 

opportunities and the relationships 

that you develop 

through in-person events is 

important. The contacts and 

friends I have made through 

the WWBA through the years 

have been instrumental to my 

career growth. 

Through the support of the 

WWBA and its members, I have 

also been able to become more 

actively involved and give back 

to the legal community. The 

WWBA provides several different 

educational and volunteering 

opportunities, as well programs 

to connect with other 

members of the organization. 

Q: Please tell us about your 

legal career. 

Amanda K. Rieben 

A: I have spent all but one 

year of my legal career focusing 

on family and matrimonial 

law. In law school I 

interned my 1L and 2L summers 

at non-profits that 

worked exclusively with victims 

of domestic violence and 

sexual assault. From these 

experiences I knew that I 

wanted to devote my career 

to assisting others with their 

family law related issues. 

After law school, I initially 

accepted a job with a 

class-action law firm, which 

provided me with important 

legal research, writing and 

communication skills, but I 

was not able to connect with 

clients and impact their lies 

in the same way that my internships 

had allowed me. 

After my first year, I pivoted 

and accepted a job in New 

York County with an agency 

called the Center for Family 

Representation (“CFR”). As 

a Staff Attorney at CFR, I defended 

parents in abuse/neglect 

proceedings under Article 

10 of the Family Court 

Act. This job provided me 

with invaluable litigation experience. 

It showed me the

An Interview with Amanda K. Rieben 

from previous page 

significant barriers that my 

clients faced given their limited 

financial resources and 

the profound impact that effective 

legal representation 

can have on their case and 

family reunification. Many of 

my clients grew up in the 

child welfare system, either living 

in fosters homes and/or 

having had allegations 

brought against their parents. 

Connecting my clients 

with essential services and 

resources for themselves and 

their children was also essential 

to helping them break the 

cycle of the child welfare 

system’s involvement. 

After my employment 

with CFR, I primarily worked 

with domestic violence victims, 

first as a Staff Attorney 

with Legal Services of the 

Hudson Valley, and later as 

Director of the Pace Women’s 

Justice Center’s Walk-In Legal 

Clinic. In both roles, I 

zealously advocated and assisted 

domestic violence victims 

in family offense, custody, 

support, and divorce 

matters. I also participated in 

several Know Your Rights programs 

and trainings, speaking 

to various staff and clients from 

other agencies in the community, 

helping them to understand 

their legal rights and options. 

I am now a Partner at the 

law firm of Abrams Fensterman, 

LLP in their Family and Matrimonial 

Law Department, working 

out of the firm’s White 

Plains Office. In this role, I assist 

clients with several types of 

family law related legal matters, 

including pre-nuptial and postnuptial 

agreements, divorce, 

legal separation, custody and 

child support. My prior experiences 

in the public sector play 

a critical role in my approach 

toward each case and have 

provided me with an understanding 

of the dynamics of 

domestic violence, and the ways 

in which it may manifest itself 

with higher net worth clients. I 

am empathetic toward each 

client’s needs, and recognize 

from my prior vocational experiences, 

the long-term impact 

that a case may have not only 

on my client, but their family, 

including their children. 

Q: Which community activities 

are you involved in? 

A: In addition to my involvement 

with the WWBA, I previously 

served as a Board Member 

at my youngest daughter’s 

pre-school. I will also now be 

serving on the board of the 


Foundation, which is 

the charitable arm of the 

Westchester Women’s Bar Association. 

Q: How have you balanced 

your legal career with your 

personal life? 

A: It is not easy to maintain 

balance in the legal profession. 

I think that my three daughters 

and my husband have provided 

me with perspective, and much 

needed reprieve from the demands 

of this profession. Every 

day despite various deadlines 

and the stresses that legal work 

can pose, I spend time with 

them, whether attending various 

sporting or art-related activities, 

dinners, hikes, or travelling. 

I cherish this time with 

my family. I am also grateful 

to them for the perspective 

they have given me and continue 

to provide me with in 

my career. They are a constant 

reminder of the importance 

of family, which I think 

is essential for lawyers not to 

lose sight of even when litigating 

the most contentious 

family/matrimonial law related 

issues. 

Q: What do you wish to accomplish 

in the future? 

A: I want to continue practicing 

family and matrimonial 

law, helping clients to navigate 

what may often be one 

of the worst times in their 

lives. I also intend to remain 

involved in the community 

through the Westchester 

Women’s Bar Association 

and the WWBAF. In my capacity 

as WWBA State Director, 

and WWBA liaison to 

WBASNY’s Domestic Violence 

Committee, I would like 

to help continue to raise 

awareness on issues impacting 

domestic violence victims.

Summer Networking at Sambal Thai & Malay 


On August 1, 2024 the WWBA hosted its annual Summer 

Networking Event with the Rockland County Women’s Bar Association 

(RCWBA) at Sambal, Thai & Malay Restaurant in 

Irvington, NY. Nearly 50 members from the WWBA and RCWBA 

attended! Members from both Bar Associations met on the 

rooftop of Sambal overlooking the beautiful Hudson River. This 

summer networking event has become a “must attend” and 

provides an opportunity for members of both Bar Associations 

to network and touch base during the summer months. 

Exotic cocktails and tasty passed hors d’oeuvres were had 

in an electric and exciting atmosphere. The evening began at 

5:30 pm and kicked off with colleagues and friends mixing and 

catching up. Officers of both the WWBA and RCWBA were in 

attendance as well as many long standing WWBA members 

and many members of the judiciary. In addition, many new 

WWBA members, student members and even a few prospective 

members attended the event and lent a feeling of excitement 

and opportunity. 

The evening ended outside on Sambal’s beautiful deck 

with the sun setting and members chatting and having a great 

time. We look forward to continuing this tradition each and 

every summer! ◗
