Giordano, Halleran & Ciesla P.C. has added to its team of real estate and environmental attorneys with one of its newest hires.
The Red Bank-based firm announced recently that Linda M. Lee has joined its ranks as an associate. With a focus on redevelopment, real estate and environmental law, she handles development, redevelopment, environmental compliance, corporate transactional, land use, zoning and business counseling matters.
Lee, who was previously an associate at a national law firm, also concentrates on complex remediation cases and general environmental compliance counseling.
“Linda brings valuable experience to Giordano, Halleran,” said Michael J. Gross, co-managing shareholder and chair of the firm’s environmental law practice area. “Her background is a terrific fit for our practice areas.”
Lee earned her law degree from Rutgers Law School in Newark, where she was editor-in-chief of the Rutgers Law Review, and her bachelor’s from Ramapo College. After graduating from law school, she served as a clerk to Judge Marianne Espinosa in the New Jersey Superior Court’s Appellate Division.
She is admitted to practice in New Jersey and New York, as well as in the U.S. District Courts of New Jersey, the Southern District of New York and the Eastern District of New York.
