to our Employee Appreciation Day!

Held each Spring, we host our incredible support staff for a few hours of fun outside of the office.

This year, our Erie and Pittsburgh teams enjoyed indoor mini golf - in Erie at Hazards, and in Pittsburgh at the Puttery.

There were a few holes-in-one, lots of laughs, and most importantly, recognition of the hard work and dedication of our staff. From our paralegals to back-office support personnel, our team is simply the best!
