Florida, NY - August 15, 2017 - (Newswire.com)
Joseph J. Ranni, Owner, Principal, & Managing Partner of the Ranni Law Firm, has joined The Expert Network©, an invitation-only service for distinguished professionals. Mr. Ranni has been chosen as a Distinguished Lawyer™ based on peer reviews and ratings, dozens of recognitions, and accomplishments achieved throughout his career.
Mr. Ranni outshines others in his field due to his extensive educational background, career longevity, and numerous awards and recognitions. After receiving his bachelor’s degree in economics and political science from SUNY Albany, Mr. Ranni earned his Juris Doctor from Brooklyn Law School in 1987. He immediately began his career in the NYC area as a litigator focusing on employment and disability cases in both state and federal courts. In 2010, he decided to enroll in a Masters of Law Program at Stetson University to further his knowledge of elder law and better serve his clients. He founded the Ranni Law Firm that same year. Today, he is based in New York's Hudson Valley and serves clients throughout the states of New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Florida.
With 30 years dedicated to law, Mr. Ranni brings a wealth of knowledge to his industry, and in particular to his area of specialization, civil litigation with a focus on elder and disability law, as well as employment discrimination. When asked why he decided to pursue a career in law, Mr. Ranni said:
"My dad was an attorney, so I was always around the law growing up. More importantly, though, my mom was a psychiatric nurse back in the 70s, and I used to go into the mental institutions with her. I saw the deplorable conditions people were living in and decided I wanted to fight for them and help them break through perceived barriers. I realized that the best way to do that was as a lawyer like my father."
Over the course of his career, Mr. Ranni has been a staunch advocate for protecting the rights of individuals while preserving their independence and dignity. Mr. Ranni’s years of training and experience, as well as his true passion for his work, have earned him recognition from top legal organizations, including Super Lawyers Magazine, Top Attorneys of North America, and The Who’s Who Directories.
As a thought-leader in his field, Mr. Ranni’s deep commitment to helping the elderly goes far beyond the reaches of his practice. He currently serves as President and CEO of HV Aging at Home Consultants Inc., a non-legal entity that consults elders in the challenges of growing older at home to ensure the highest quality of life while living at home. He is also on the Board of Directors of Independent Living Inc., a cross-disability non-profit advocacy and service group. Mr. Ranni also recently sat on the House of Delegates for the New York State Bar Association and is a member of the New York State Bar Association Disability Rights Committee.
This prominence in his field gives Mr. Ranni a unique vantage point from which to stay on top of prevailing trends in elder and disability law. In particular, he is paying close attention to the attempted repeal of the Affordable Care Act and what the future may hold for the law—as well as the millions of people the law affects—under the Trump Administration. He noted:
"Even before Obamacare, Medicaid had a lot of benefits for the elderly and disabled. Now, with the proposed cutbacks and per capita caps, people who rely on things such as skilled nursing and at-home care could lose access to services that currently allow them to live meaningful, independent lives. This will significantly hurt my clients and challenges my ability to legally protect them."
