Congratulations to Doreen A. Simmons for being selected as “Environmental Lawyer of the Year” for 2011 by Best Lawyers.  She was one of only four lawyers in New York State to receive this prestigious award.

The lawyers being honored as “Lawyers of the Year” have received particularly high ratings in our surveys by earning a high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism, and integrity.
