Veronica Renta Irwin Has Been Recognized Among the Top in Her Industry by the Expert Network©

The Expert Network celebrates its newest member, Attorney Veronica Renta Irwin

Veronica Renta Irwin, Partner, Irwin Streiner, has joined The Expert Network©, an invitation-only service for distinguished professionals. Ms. Irwin has been chosen as a Distinguished Lawyer™ based on peer reviews and ratings, dozens of recognitions, and accomplishments achieved throughout her career.

Ms. Irwin outshines others in her field due to her extensive educational background, numerous awards and recognitions, and career longevity. She earned her undergraduate degree from SUNY Albany in 1994. She continued on to law school at Hofstra, graduating with her Juris Doctorate in 1999.

Another concern of mine is that the completion rates for students of color who enroll in college programs is less than 50%. For Hispanics, this number is even lower. I'm very interested in getting involved in this issue, and I'm hoping to go to high schools and speak to those students about the mitigating factors involved there.

With nearly 20 years of experience dedicated to law, Ms. Irwin brings a wealth of knowledge to her industry, and, in particular to her areas of specialization, no fault law, guardianship, personal injury, real estate, and family law. When asked why she decided to pursue a career in law, Ms. Irwin said:

"I’ve always wanted to be a lawyer. That’s something that has driven me. When I was younger, it felt like a way to even the playing field. It felt like a way to help people get justice regardless of their socioeconomic status. The reality isn’t that simple, but I’m dedicated to the law, and to working within the system to find that justice. I love everything about the legal system, even though I’m the first to acknowledge that we have a lot of work to do to make that system work well. I love it. I love the nuances of it. I love the drama of it. I love the balance between the law and justice."

As a thought-leader in her industry, it is essential that Ms. Irwin stay up to date on trends and changes in her areas of specialty. She notes that though there are more and more young women enrolling in law schools, the number of women in high-powered legal positions such as judgeships and political office is still comparatively low. To that end, she has been instrumental in programs designed to motivate young female law students to pursue higher career goals, and she is active in the promotion of diversity in higher education. She notes:

"Through the Nassau County Women’s Bar Association, I’m arranging opportunities for young female law students to go in and talk to sitting judges about their career paths. Judges at every level—Family Court, District Court, Supreme Court, and the Court of Claims—have been very gracious and supportive of the program and have offered their time and guidance to these young attorneys. On behalf of the Women’s Bar Association, I have gone to Hofstra Law School and signed up the majority of the first year female students to the Women’s Bar. Another concern of mine is that the completion rates for students of color who enroll in college programs is less than 50%. For Hispanics, this number is even lower. I’m very interested in getting involved in this issue, and I’m hoping to go to high schools and speak to those students about the mitigating factors involved there."

Ms. Irwin was nominated for Nassau County Attorney of the Year in 2016 for her pro bono work in family and matrimonial law.
