Rogers & Tartaro expanded law practice to immigration
Rogers & Tartaro, LLP, in Ridgefield has expanded its law practice to include services in immigration law for employers, families and individual clients.
Attorneys Beverley Rogers and Angelo D. Tartaro, the firm’s partners, said immigration law is a natural extension of their employment law practice and an opportunity to meet a growing and essential need.
Born in Italy and fluent in Italian, Mr. Tartaro emigrated to the United States with his parents when he was six years old. He graduated from Brooklyn College with a bachelor of arts in economics, and he holds an master of business administration from the NYU’s Stern School of Business.
He graduated magna cum laude from Pace University School of Law, where he was on the Law Review. He is a member of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, as well as the New York and Connecticut Bar Associations, and the Westchester County Bar Association.
Attorney Rogers, born in Brooklyn, is returning to college to earn a degree in foreign languages.
“Immigration is a dynamic area of law that can be as challenging and as complex as our tax laws,” she said. “Our secretary-paralegal was born in the Portuguese colony of Angola, Africa and speaks Portuguese and Spanish. Angelo speaks Italian. I thought it would be fun to round out our ‘United Nations’ law firm and become fluent in another language.”
Attorney Rogers received a bachelor of arts, cum laude, from Pace and a jurisprudence from Pace University School of Law. She is an active member of the Westchester Women’s Bar Association Judicial Screening Committee, and she is a member of the Connecticut Employment Lawyers Association and the New York Employment Lawyers Association.
She also serves on the Board of Directors of the Ridgefield Visiting Nurse Association and the Ridgefield Library. She is co-president of the Ridgefield Discovery Center.
With offices in Ridgefield and White Plains, Rogers & Tartaro, LLP, is a full service law firm specializing in business and not-for-profit law, commercial litigation, employment law, real estate and land use law, immigration law, and wills, trusts and probate.
