About Christine S.
Christine S. Mayernick-Lezinski trained first as a scientist and finished law school in the early 1990s. She earned a Bachelor of Science from the University of Scranton in 1989 and also attended Pennsylvania State University before taking her law degree at Dickinson School of Law, where she graduated in 1993. Those classroom years set the stage for a steady legal career in Pennsylvania courts.
After law school, Mayernick-Lezinski began practicing in a state distinguished by a busy docket and varied civil matters. She is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania, before the Third Circuit, and in the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. Those admissions have allowed her to handle matters in both trial and appellate settings over the years.
Her professional affiliations paint a picture of steady engagement with the legal community. She holds memberships in the Pennsylvania State Bar, the Pennsylvania Bar Association, the American Bar Association, and the Lackawanna County Bar Association. Locally, she is also a member of the Lackawanna County Women Lawyers Association. The list reflects regular participation in bar activities and in the local circles where many cases begin and end.
Mayernick-Lezinski practices at Lenahan & Dempsey P.C., where she is part of the firm’s roster of attorneys. Her work there has placed her in state and federal courtrooms and in front of administrative bodies when cases require it. Colleagues describe her as pragmatic in court preparation and exacting in attention to procedural requirements. She handles matters that demand familiarity with federal rules and with Pennsylvania statutes, and she is comfortable moving between different venues when a client’s needs require it.
Clients and other lawyers often encounter her through courtroom appearances, motion work, and filings in appellate matters. Her courtroom work includes preparing briefs and arguing motions, and she is familiar with the pacing of both trial dockets and appellate calendars. She balances case management with the practical deadlines of litigation practice, which helps maintain steady progress on matters assigned to her.
Mayernick-Lezinski remains active in local and statewide bar groups while carrying a docket at Lenahan & Dempsey P.C. Her current practice centers on litigation in Pennsylvania state and federal courts.
