About Gerald
Mr. Lennon's primary practice is in Real Estate development. Jerry has represented owners, developers, and builders in a wide range of projects, from minor subdivisions to large multi-phase residential developments and a variety of commercial and retail projects, from fast food restaurants to supermarkets and strip shopping centers. He has served as Deputy Village Attorney for the Villages of Montgomery (1979-1990) and Walden (1982-1987), and also provided legal assistance to a number of other municipalities represented by the firm.
Prior to becoming an attorney, Jerry worked in a planning capacity with the United States Department of the Interior and therefore brings a multi-disciplinary perspective to the land development process. He is conversant with the operative architectural, engineering, financial and natural resource principles that must be integrated into project formulation to make the approval and construction process timely, as well as successful.
Jerry has an active condominium, cooperative, and homeowner's association (HOA) practice. Together with Penny Thelman, they prepare Martin Act offering plans for a variety of both residential and commercial (office, retail, and industrial) condominiums and residential HOAs. Offering plans have been prepared for filing with the New York State Attorney General's Office for both new construction and conversions of existing projects. Additionally, he leads the firm's representation of a number of governing boards of condominiums and HOAs.
Mr. Lennon is a graduate of the State University of New York at Albany and received his Juris Doctor degree in 1977 from Temple University School of Law in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He was admitted to the New York State Bar in 1979, and is also admitted to practice in the United States District Court for the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York.
Jerry was born in Walden and relocated back home after law school. He is married to his high school sweetheart, Carol, since 1966. They have three boys. Jerry is actively involved in his church, particularly men's and youth ministries, and is a member of the Mid-Hudson Camp of The Gideon's International. He was a coach in the Walden Little League for a number of years, admitting to a "moderate" degree of success, and to having at least as much fun coaching as the kids did playing. .
