Kempshall McAndrew, an associate in the firm’s litigation practice group, has demonstrated exceptional dedication and commitment in his role as co-counsel supporting the Legal Services of the Hudson Valley (LSHV). Through his outstanding legal expertise, Kempshall has played a crucial part in making a positive impact on the lives of those in need.
Legal Services of the Hudson Valley (LSHV) reaffirms its commitment to justice by championing the case of a widowed, unhoused, HIV-positive individual who lost his home due to an illegal deed transfer orchestrated by his opportunistic Power of Attorney (POA). Samuel Bergsohn, a staff attorney at LSHV, recognized the injustice and enlisted the support of Ilene Hartzband, LSHV’s Pro Bono Coordinating Attorney, and Kempshall McAndrew, a 2022 Pro Bono Award Recipient from Cuddy & Feder LLP, as co-counsel. Despite the POA’s audacious lawsuit against our client, the team’s empathy and determination prevailed, rightfully returning to the client his home and his dignity.
