Chiesa Shahinian & Giantomasi PC (“CSG”) is pleased to announce that two attorneys in its New York City office – Samuel Newbold and Matthew E. Foreman – have been selected for inclusion in the 2020 edition of New York Super Lawyers.
“This recognition of Sam and Matt, both outstanding attorneys in their respective fields and representatives of the future of our firm, is welcome validation of the stellar team we have put in place across the river as we continue to expand our New York City presence,” noted Daniel A. Schwartz, CSG’s Managing Member. “We are grateful to our peers for their continued support in this prestigious listing.”
Newbold, Chair of CSG’s Immigration Law Group, has been selected for inclusion in the 2020 edition of New York Super Lawyers – Rising Stars, which recognizes the top 2.5 percent of lawyers who are either under the age of 40 or have been in practice for ten years or less.
