Judge Dandrea Ruhlmann - Monroe County Family Court
Judge Dandrea Ruhlmann has served the last 20 years as your Family Court judge. She has heard over 24,000 cases — from the joy of adoptions to the most egregious child abuse. Family Court is truly a court that makes a difference.
​
Her experience has taught her to handle the toughest cases both fairly and compassionately. She has seen the resiliency of our children and the power of working together to find the best solutions for our families.
​
Judge Ruhlmann will work tirelessly to make Family Court a better place. She has spear-headed collaboratives with community partners, reforming our child welfare and juvenile justice systems, to promote stability and avoid further trauma for our children.
​
Judge Ruhlmann received the Rochester Black Bar Association's highest rating of "Highly Qualified and Highly Sensitive" and a "Well-Qualified" rating from the Greater Rochester Association of Women Attorneys. Judge Ruhlmann also received a Judicial Excellence Award from the Daily Record. She is the only family court candidate endorsed by both the Rochester Police Locust Club and the NY StateTroopers, PBA.
Raised in Rochester, and the only elected Republican official who lives in the town of Brighton, this is her community: Her husband Ray, a McQuaid teacher and a USMC-Iraq veteran, and her two children remind her daily of the impact her decisions have on families.
Those who know Family Court the best endorse her — from law enforcement to labor, from firefighters to social workers. Please join them in voting to reelect Judge Dandrea Ruhlmann to Family Court.
