KCCBA President Michael Sheinberg, who has been a part of the organization for decades, said one can make lifelong connections within the organization. \u201cI\u2019ve been practicing for more than 30 years, and my father, who recently retired in his 80s, was a member as well,\u201d Sheinberg said. \u201cWhen I was a young attorney, I met a lot of older attorneys here.\u201d<\/p>\n
Winslow described the mood as \u201cfestive\u201d and \u201chot.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cThere were Supreme Court and Criminal Court justices in attendance, senior court officers, all the top people from the Legal Aid Society and Brooklyn Defender Services,\u201d he said. \u201cIt was as important a room as you could have.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Winslow said that practicing in Brooklyn is unlike in any other borough. \u201cNo one has the level of respect between all three branches that you experience when you\u2019re in Brooklyn, and it makes it a better place to practice,\u201d he said.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
The KCCBA counts among its membership judges, prosecutors, attorneys from indigent defense providers, military service members and private criminal defense lawyers practicing in the federal and state courts who are among the most accomplished trial practitioners in the state.\u00a0<\/p>\n
KCCBA members also serve the greater legal community by maintaining leadership positions with city- and state-wide bar associations, serving on advisory committees and panels and also promoting charitable causes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The KCCBA advocates for the benefit of their members and the Brooklyn criminal courts, provides regular continuing legal education programs focusing on criminal justice topics, maintains a referral service for semi-indigent representation, and organizes frequent networking events, all to promote cooperative exchanges of ideas and the effective administration of justice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"KCCBA President Michael Sheinberg, who has been a part of the organization for decades, said one can make…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":79274,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[98,100,99,14768,3308,27934,39414,9,24,63,4116],"class_list":["post-79273","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn","tag-brooklyn-headlines","tag-brooklyn-news","tag-courts-and-law","tag-daily-bulletin","tag-holiday-events","tag-kings-county-criminal-bar-association-kccba","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-wayne-daren-schneiderman"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79273","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=79273"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79273\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/79274"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=79273"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=79273"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=79273"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
