Lucille has been at Clark, Gagliardi & Miller since graduating first in her class from Pace Law School in 1981. Since then she has represented hundreds of injured plaintiffs, with individualized attention which is the hallmark of CG&M. She has obtained many million dollar plus results at trial and settlement.

In 2001 Lucille was the recipient of the New York State Bar Association Award for Attorney Professionalism. The Award cited her "superb representation" of her clients and her "zealous advocacy, integrity, civility, and sensitivity."

Lucille also received the Pace University School of Law Distinguished Service Award in November, 2000. This was unprecedented since it is the only time two lawyers (Henry Miller was the first) from the same firm have been so honored.

Lucille lectures frequently on various aspects of personal injury litigation.

In her more than 25 years at Clark, Gagliardi & Miller, she has achieved an outstanding track record for successfully prosecuting and resolving the claims of injured plaintiffs.
