Denlea & Carton’s Summer Newsletter
Summer 2020
What a crazy year it’s been ! COVID, hurricanes, long overdue discussions about racial injustice, and a presidential election that’s still three months away. It would be understandable if you’re emotionally (and intellectually) exhausted. With that in mind, we thought we’d share a few “lighter” announcements with you before the summer ends, as who knows what awaits us in the Fall. Happy reading, and thanks for being a friend.
A Warm Welcome to Joe Licare and Craig Cepler
Joseph is an experienced litigator who joins the firm’s business litigation practice. He graduated from Bucknell, and received his MBA from Iona College, and his law degree from St. John’s University School of Law. He was a Senior Court Attorney for the Honorable Alan D. Scheinkman of the Supreme Court, Ninth Judicial District, and most recently practiced in Manhattan with Hogan Lovells US LLP. Joseph lives in Harrison with his wife, a nurse, and their three children.
Craig Cepler has also joined the firm’s litigation practice. He is a graduate of Cornell University and NYU Law School, and began his career at Kaye Scholer. He was a federal clerk for the Hon. Warren Eginton (in the District of Connecticut), and for the Hon. Vincent Briccetti (in the Southern District of New York), before returning to private practice. He lives in White Plains with his wife, a high school teacher, and their three daughters.

Volunteer New York’s Spirit Awards
The Firm was pleased to support Volunteer New York’s annual Spirits Awards. These awards, given for various volunteerism in Westchester County and the surrounding communities, include recognition in education and literacy, youth leadership, social advocacy, and quality of life.

We hope you enjoy the waning days of summer.
Stay well, and healthy !
