WATKINS GLEN--Schuyler County Attorney Steven Getman has announced his appointment of Dina Foerster as an assistant county attorney, effective Monday, June 12.
As an assistant county attorney, Foerster will join Getman in representing Schuyler County in civil litigation, family court prosecutions and social services law.
Prior to joining Getman’s office, Foerster was an assistant county attorney in Allegany County, New York. Before that, Foerster worked as legal process manager at Dime Community Bank, in Hauppauge, Long Island, and at several downstate New York law firms.
