Judge Wavny Toussaint - Professional Background & Legal Expertise

Biography

The Hon. Wavny Toussaint is a Justice for the Kings County Supreme Court (Civil Term) in the Second Judicial District of New York. She was elected to the bench in 2015.

Toussaint began her judicial career as a judge for the Civil Court of the City of New York in Kings County, a position to which she was elected in 2003. Later that year, she was designated to the Criminal Court of the City of New York in Kings County by Chief Administrative Judge Jonathan Lippman. She presided in that capacity for two years. Then, in 2010, Toussaint was designated to the Kings County Family Court and the Kings County Supreme Court by Chief Administrative Judge Ann Pfau.

She attended City College at the City University of New York, where she completed a B.A. in pre-law. She then earned a J.D. from Howard University School of Law.

After graduating from law school, Toussaint became assistant counsel for the City of New York Corporation Counsel in 1982.

Three years later, she entered into private practice, joining Lester, Schwab, Katz & Dwyer as an associate. She practiced there until 1988, when she accepted a position as a principal law clerk for the New York State Unified Court System.

In 1994, Toussaint returned to private practice, this time as a sole practitioner. However, her time there would be brief. She resumed her duties at the New York State Unified Court System in 1996, a position she held until her election to the bench.

Toussaint was raised in Trinidad and Tobago, immigrating to Brooklyn when she was a teenager in 1973.
