Congratulations to Lauren Mechaly, who is now a Certified Elder Law Attorney (CELA).  This certification is granted by the National Elder Law Foundation (NELF) and is accredited by the American Bar Association.  Lauren is one of only 50 CELAs in New Jersey; our own Regina Spielberg is one of the others. 

The CELA certification has been referred to as “the gold standard” for elder law and special needs practitioners, reflecting the hard work and experience required before an attorney can hold the designation.
