The Makofsky Valente Law Group, P.C. is excited to announce that each of our attorneys, Ellen Makofsky, Lisa Valente and Christina Lamm have been named to the New York Metro Area Super Lawyers list. Partner Ellen Makofsky has been further honored by being selected for two extremely exclusive groups – the Top 100 New York Metro Super Lawyers and the Top 50 Women New York Metro Super Lawyers. Only 5% of attorneys are named as Super Lawyers, but being named a Top 100 New York Metro Super Lawyer and a Top 50 Women New York Metro Super Lawyer is a far more exclusive (and rare) designation. Congratulations, Ellen, on this accomplishment.
Super Lawyers differs from other awards programs in that attorneys are both nominated and evaluated by peers within the same practice of law. The final selection is made by a panel of top attorneys from the same field who evaluate candidates in their primary practice area. In other words, Ellen, Lisa and Christina were selected as Super Lawyers by other experts in elder law.
"Being named a Top 50 Woman Super Lawyer and among the Top 100 Super Lawyers in the New York Metro Area is a huge honor for Ellen, and to have every attorney in our practice recognized as a Super Lawyer is a thrill. I am grateful that our colleagues think so highly of us,“ said partner, Lisa Valente.
