Dominic Famulari installed as president of the Bay Ridge Lawyers
DYKER HEIGHTS — The Bay Ridge Lawyers Association installed Dominic Famulari as its newest president during an installation ceremony at Mama Rao’s in Dyker Heights on Wednesday night.
“I don’t think there is one person in here who can say anything bad about Dominic except that he is wonderful, he is a gentleman, he is a scholar, he is just really the salt of the Earth,” said Surrogate Court judge Rosemarie Montalbano, who performed the oath. “It really is an honor for me to be here for this.”
The ceremony that the BRLA uses is called the “Passing of the Gavel.” The group has used it for decades going back to a trip to England where members watched an official Inns of Court presentation and they decided to bring the ceremony back with them.
