Pond Lehocky Giordano Gives Back in honor of International Day of Disabled Persons

Pond Lehocky Giordano will once again be spreading holiday cheer over the weeks leading up to the new year by contributing to local and national charities selected by the firm’s clients, partners, attorneys and staff.
