We are proud to announce that Janine Danks Fox is being sworn in today, February 6, as a Judge of the New Jersey Superior Court, following her nomination by Phil Murphy. Ms. Danks concluded her tenure with Szaferman Lakind on January 30, after 25 years of distinguished service with the firm.
Throughout her career at Szaferman Lakind, Ms. Danks played a significant role in strengthening the firm’s reputation through diligent advocacy, sound judgment, and thoughtful representation of clients in complex legal matters.
“This moment is both proud and bittersweet for our firm,” said Barry D. Szaferman, Esq., Co-Managing Partner. “Janine has been a valued colleague and trusted professional partner for 25 years. We worked closely on many challenging matters, and I had the privilege of watching her grow both professionally and personally. While her departure will be deeply felt, her appointment to the bench is a gain for the State of New Jersey.”
Mr. Szaferman added, “Judges have a profound impact on the lives of those who appear before them. Janine understands that responsibility. With her work ethic, good judgment, and knowledge of the law, she will serve litigants and the court with fairness and integrity.”
We congratulate Judge Danks on this significant professional achievement and thank her for her many years of commitment, professionalism, and service to our firm.
