Contributions to the Community
Children hold a special place in the hearts of everyone at Lewis, Feldman, Lehane & McAtee, LLC. For that reason, we donate a percentage of our fees for successful settlements to local charities which help children.
Since 2003, our firm has donated more than $26,000 to Kid One Transport, Children's Hospital and Hand-In-Paw.
