Comptroller Thomas DiNapoli announced today that he approved the contract with Roemer Wallens Gold & Mineaux LLP. The firm’s founder is James Roemer, who has worked with local and state governments for decades.
The money will go to “investigations pursuant to the Assembly sexual harassment/retaliation policy.”
In February, the Assembly entered into two contracts worth $205,000 for an outside firm, Rossein Associates, to handle sexual-harassment cases in the chamber.
Assemblymen Vito Lopez, D-Brooklyn, and Dennis Gabryszak, D-Cheektowaga, Erie County, resigned because of the allegations. Assemblyman Micah Kellner, D-Manhattan, is fighting the charges against him.
In another contract Monday, the state’s now-defunct Moreland Commission was approved for a $175,000 contract to to K2 Intelligence LLC for “investigative and analytical services under contract,” DiNapoli said.
The Manhattan-based firm touted its work in December on its website.
