GOSHEN, N.Y. – The Goshen law firm Blustein, Shapiro, Rich & Barone, LLP is pleased to welcome the arrival of William A. Frank, a seasoned attorney who will spearhead the firm’s formal expansion of its Municipal Law department.

“William Frank is a very knowledgeable and experienced attorney who will bring incredible value to our firm and its associates,” said BSR&B Managing Partner Michael Blustein. “We’re very pleased to welcome him.”

Frank, a graduate of Albany State University where he earned dean’s list honors, and St. John’s University School of Law, has been the primary attorney representing the Town of Wallkill for the last several years. The Town of Wallkill spans 62.8 square miles and has a population of nearly 30,000. His legal expertise also includes banking, commercial transactions, real estate, and litigation.

“I am extremely excited to be joining the well-recognized and highly respected law firm of BSR&B,” Frank said. “I look forward to working with all of the attorneys and support staff as we all continue the growth and success of the firm.”

Frank joins the firm after working in another regional firm for nearly a decade, the past six years as a partner. Prior to practicing law in the Hudson Valley, Frank worked as an attorney in New York City for 12 years and in Great Neck for three years.

Frank has been a mediator for the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, for the past decade, and an arbitrator for Legal Fee Disputes in the New York State Supreme Court, Ninth Judicial District, for five years. This year, he has spoken at both the Association of Towns and Cities regarding Municipal Budget Preparation, and the National Business Institute: Recent Developments in Municipal Law. He is scheduled to speak at an upcoming Municipal Law seminar for the National Business Institute in early 2014.
