It’s an idea whose time has come. Just two months ago, a few lawyers within the Greater Hartford Jewish Federation began talking about the need for a professional group to share education, networking and cultural activity. Around the nation, cities like San Diego and Seattle have Benjamin N. Cardozo societies that do just that. They honor the former New York Court of Appeals judge who followed Louis Brandeis to be the second Jewish U.S. Supreme Court Justice.
As Daniel J. Klau put it, “The Jewish lawyer population in Hartford has the kind of critical mass to support this kind of an organization.” He’s a partner in the Hartford offices of New Haven-based Wiggin & Dana, and is helping to organize the group’s inaugural event May 15, featuring an address by Seth P. Waxman, a West Hartford native who served as U.S. Solicitor General in the Clinton administration.
