From the President

Welcome CAASNY Members:

On behalf of the Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to welcome you to the website of the County Attorneys’ Association of the State of New York (CAASNY). I am honored to serve as President of this esteemed organization and I look forward to yet another year of promoting the legal profession, as well as facilitating the development of relationships and the ability to collaborate between and amongst County Attorneys throughout the State of New York.

Since its creation in 1981, CAASNY has strived to serve the interests of County Attorneys in all 62 counties of the State of New York, as well as the interests of the New York City Corporation Counsel. We are once again excited to provide you with a platform that gives you the opportunity to connect and exchange best practices with other CAASNY members as well as providing you with access to continuing legal education courses that address the vast array of areas of law that County Attorneys are faced with.  In addition to attending our meetings and participating in our CLE programs, we hope you take the time to explore all that our website has to offer. If you have any new ideas about events or programs that we should be organizing for our fellow members, please let us know.

Furthermore, if you have not already done so, please get in touch with Lisa Rivage at Albany Law School – at [email protected] or 518-472-5888 – to receive a password to access the confidential forum that is accessible by members only.

Thank you for allowing me to serve you as your President. It truly is a great honor.

Very truly yours,

Michael A. Siragusa
Erie County Attorney
