Loewy

Karen Loewy, a lawyer with Lambda Legal, which is representing PFLAG, said she remains baffled by the attorney general’s decision to use the state’s consumer protection law to investigate organizations like PFLAG, which provides resources to chapter support groups in the state.

“There's no consumer fraud happening here at PFLAG’s hands,” Loewy said.

The application process has been used recently by Ukrainians fleeing the Russian invasion, but the process can take up to two years, according to immigration attorney Sameen Ahmadnia with the law firm Fragomen, Del Rey, Bernsen & Loewy.

She studied interior architecture on a scholarship at the Rhode Island School of Design, graduating in 1945, and went to work briefly in Manhattan for Raymond Loewy, the influential French-born industrial designer, before earning a fellowship at Cranbrook.

"Russia was already isolated and no longer of interest to investors," said Michael Loewy of the Federation of Austrian Industries.
