Jaspan Schlesinger, the 76-yearold law firm in Garden City, is now Jaspan Schlesinger Narendran. The name change went into effect on Jan. 1.
The name change is in recognition of the “significant contributions” of Jothy Narendran, the law firm’s co-managing partner, who has served in this role since 2020.
Jothy joined the firm as partner in 2010, ultimately becoming instrumental to its growth. She chairs the firm’s Banking and Financial Services practice group, comprising 25 attorneys and legal assistants.
“As part of our continued growth, I believe it was time to acknowledge Jothy’s vast contributions to the firm by adding her as a named partner of the firm,” Steven Schlesinger, the firm’s co-managing partner, said in a statement.
The new firm name “is more appropriate for a firm with our history of supporting equity and inclusion and our firm’s current position in the region’s legal landscape,” he said.
Well-known in the region’s legal and business communities, Jothy has received numerous professional recognitions over the years.
