Congratulations to attorney Joey Kemmerling who has been named a Forty Under 40 honoree for 2026 by Lehigh Valley Business. The Forty Under 40 awards recognize future leaders of the Lehigh Valley who are not only achieving success in their careers, but are also dedicated to giving back to our community.
Joey is an attorney in KingSpry’s Business, Real Estate and Litigation Practice Groups. He earned his Juris Doctor, cm laude, from Stetson University College of Law, where he was a member of the Moot Court Board.
“What sets Joseph apart is not only his legal skill, but the way he carries himself as a colleague and leader,” notes KingSpry Litigation Chair Alan Battisti. “He approaches challenges with humility and determination, and he has grown rapidly because he listens, learns, and then leads by example. Those qualities are especially meaningful in the legal profession, where trust, clarity, and sound judgment are essential.”
“Joey shows up for others— Through his support of organizations serving the LGBTQ+ community, volunteer work with the LGBT Business Council Str8 Talk committee and Bradbury Sullivan LGBT Community Center, involvement in the Bar Association of Lehigh County, as well as his board service with Victory House. Joey is talented, generous, and deeply community-minded,” says KingSpry partner Dorota Gasienica-Kozak who is also one of Joey’s mentors at the firm. “He is not just building a successful career; he is using that success to help make the Lehigh Valley stronger, kinder, and more inclusive.”
Joey and the other 2026 honorees will accept their awards during a special ceremony on September 16. Congratulations to all of the 2026 honorees!
