Four lawyers from the Pennsylvania office of New Jersey-based Norris McLaughlin have left to form their own firm in the Lehigh Valley.
Hoffman Hlavac & Easterly, which opened its doors Monday in Allentown, was formed by former Norris McLaughlin litigation practice co-chairman and Pennsylvania administrative partner Steven Hoffman, along with George Hlavac, former labor and employment department co-chairman, and Edward Easterly, also of the employment practice. The new firm’s lone associate, John Buckley, also was with Norris McLaughlin’s labor and employment group.
