Attorney Loryn Riggiola Honored by Mann Foundation

Zetlin & De Chiara LLP partner Loryn Riggiola of Montclair was honored for her contributions to the building industry by The Mann Foundation at its spring gala celebrating the foremost women in the apparel, banking, real estate, and hedge fund industries.

Ms. Riggiola is being recognized for her success in helping industry professionals reduce their business risk on projects, so their focus can remain on building and progressing rather than on recovery. Over the span of her career, she has represented clients in the U.S. and abroad on troubled projects and transitioned that representation into project counseling to avoid disputes, transfer risk, and implement mechanisms for early intervention of project issues, thereby reducing exposure, litigation costs and project delays.

She serves as General Counsel to the Women Builders Council and is a past president of Design Build Institute of America, NY-Tri-State Metro Area. Her memberships include the American Bar Association, New Jersey State Bar Association, New York State Bar Association and District of Columbia Bar Association.

The Leading Ladies celebration took place on May 13, 2019 at Versa, 218 West 35 Street in midtown Manhattan.

The Mann Charitable Foundation was founded 20 years ago in memory of Marion and Irving Mann. Its mission is to fund research for geriatric diseases, and to ultimately find a cure for Alzheimer’s disease. Last year, The Mann Charitable Foundation expanded its initiatives to include Crohn’s and Colitis disease, breast cancer, and liver diseases.
