The New York State Bar Association (NYSBA) today is saddened by the loss of longtime Poughkeepsie attorney Robert L. Ostertag, who served as its president from 1991-1992.
“Bob Ostertag was a tremendous leader of our association for decades,” said NYSBA President T. Andrew Brown. “He understood better than anyone how bar associations can serve solo and small-firm lawyers. During his presidency, he created a statewide conference, which developed 100 recommendations to help solo and small firm practitioners in New York. He was also the first chair of our General Practice Section.
