Steven Eisman installed as president of Nassau County Bar Association

Steven J. Eisman, a divorce and family lawyer, was installed Tuesday night as the 113th president of the Nassau County Bar Association.

Eisman, an executive partner at Abrams, Fensterman, Fensterman, Eisman, Formato, Ferrara & Wolf LLP in Lake Success, succeeded John P. McEntee, a commercial litigation partner at Farrell Fritz in Uniondale. McEntee's one-year term ended May 31.

The bar association's roughly 5,000 members elected Eisman in 2014 to the position of president-elect. As president-elect, he automatically ascended to the presidency.

Eisman's platform calls for maintaining the association's Mineola headquarters building and improving ties between young lawyers and members of the judiciary.

Eisman, who lives in East Hills, is a fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers.

Also installed to one-year terms were: president-elect Martha Krisel of HGA Program Management, Farmingdale; vice president Steven G. Leventhal of Leventhal, Cursio, Mullaney & Sliney, LLP, Roslyn; treasurer Elena Karabatos, partner, Schlissel Ostrow Karabatos, PLLC, Garden City; and secretary Richard D. Collins, partner, Collins, McDonald & Gann, PC., Mineola.
