If you're in the Town of Ithaca (TOMPKINS COUNTY) next week, I hope you'll join me for a fireside chat with the Cornell Law School (Cornell University) chapter of The Federalist Society about the New York State Solicitor General's Office: the appellate litigation boutique within the Office of the New York State Attorney General responsible for representing the State, its administrative agencies, and its officials in some of their most significant appeals, including appeals in the Supreme Court of the U.S. I had the privilege of serving in the Solicitor General's Office before joining Harris Beach PLLC, and I look forward to sharing some of my experiences. Details are in the flyer below. Thank you, Whitney Dawson and Trinity Kipp, for the invitation! #law #lawyers #lawfirms #litigation #government #publicinterest #lawschools #lawstudents #solicitorgeneral #appellate #appellatelaw #appeals #legal #legalprofession #legalissues #legaleducation #publicservice #newyork #scotus

We had a fantastic “Trunk or Treat” event today at the Rochester Office of Harris Beach PLLC! This was our 5th year of hosting the event - organized by our fearless and ever present Office Manager Cyndy Arthmann. There were lots of very cute, not so scary “trick or treaters” dressed as ninjas, ghosts, pirates, and princesses. We had a group of terrific volunteers who dressed up, decorated their trunks and handed out candy to our HB families and little ones! This event - like so many others we host - offer us the opportunity to gather in a fun way and build connections outside the workplace. It is a pleasure (and honor) to serve as the Rochester Office Managing Partner (easier for me to say when I am not wearing a Whoopee Cushion costume 😂). Happy Halloween! 🎃 Thank you volunteers Charles Russell, Emily Crowley, Kyle Gooch, Pinky Brice, Cyndy Arthmann, Will Smith, Cyndi Trembley, Lauren Emens, Carla Penazek, Amanda Young, Sara Czernikowski, Marlena Thornton, Debbie Burley, Gina Adams, Rhoda Hales, Brooke Monfalcone, CPA, and Frank Monfalcone, CPA!
