Super Lawyers Honors Five Attorneys at Westchester County Elder Law Firm Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano, LLP

The law firm of Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano, LLP, located in White Plains & Somers, N.Y., is pleased to announce that three members and two associates have been recognized in the 2022 New York Metro edition of Super Lawyers. Managing member Anthony J. Enea has been selected by his peers as a Super Lawyer in the practice area of Estate & Probate; Sara E. Meyers, member, was recognized in Elder Law. Samantha A. Lyons, member; Lauren C. Enea, senior associate; and Stella King, associate; have been named Rising Stars.

2022 marks the sixteenth consecutive year Anthony J. Enea has been included in the Super Lawyers list, and the tenth time he has been honored as a “Top 25” attorney in Westchester County. An “AV” Rated Preeminent Attorney (Martindale-Hubbell) and strong leader in Westchester’s legal community, Mr. Enea is a past president of the Westchester County Bar Association, immediate past president of the Westchester County Bar Foundation and past chair of the Elder Law and Special Needs Section of the New York State Bar Association. His practice areas include wills, trusts & estates, elder law; Medicaid asset protection planning; Medicaid applications (home care and nursing home) and special needs planning.

“I’m honored to once again share this recognition with four deserving colleagues,” said Mr. Enea. “Working in the field of elder law, we can make a real impact on people’s lives – stepping in at a time of need with the knowledge and ability to protect our clients’ life savings from the overwhelming costs associated with long-term care and estate taxes. Our attorneys are committed to maintaining the highest legal standards and achieving the best possible results."

Also recognized as a 2022 Super Lawyer, Sara E. Meyers has been on the New York Metro list for ten consecutive years. Ms. Meyers concentrates her practice on guardianship proceedings (including contested guardianships), special needs planning and long term care planning strategies, with a focus on Medicaid home care and nursing home. Ms. Meyers is co-chair of the Westchester County Bar Association’s (WCBA) Guardianship Committee and a frequent lecturer for both the WCBA and New York State Bar Association.

In addition, three attorneys from Enea, Scanlan & Sirignano, LLP are 2022 Rising Stars:

• Samantha A. Lyons (Estate & Probate): Practice areas include Medicaid applications (nursing home and home care) & Medicaid planning, estate planning, and guardianships
• Lauren C. Enea (Estate & Probate): Practice areas include elder law; probate and administration proceedings; wills, trusts, and estates; and Medicaid planning & applications (nursing home and homecare)
• Stella King (Elder Law): Practice areas include elder law, Medicaid planning & applications (nursing home and homecare), and estate planning

The research team at Super Lawyers, a publication of Thomson Reuters, undertakes a rigorous, multi-phase selection process each year. Once nominations are determined through a statewide survey of lawyers, candidates then undergo independent evaluations by an attorney-led research staff and a peer review by practice area.

The selection process for the Rising Stars list is the same as Super Lawyers, with one exception – to be eligible for inclusion in Rising Stars, a candidate must be either 40 years old or younger or in practice for 10 years or less. While up to five percent of the lawyers in the state are named to Super Lawyers, no more than 2.5 percent are named to the Rising Stars list.
