attorney based on a sense of duty instilled by his father—to stand
up for those who couldn't stand up for themselves. At Pond Lehocky

impact on people's lives, leveling the playing field against
insurance giants and ensuring his clients, who might otherwise face a
David vs. Goliath situation, receive the advocacy they deserve.
