      Biography

      I am the owner of The Lacy Employment Law firm, LLC, which specializes in worker's rights as well as civil rights. Prior to opening my law firm, I worked for one of the largest international law firms in the world.

      I also took a sabbatical from large law firm life to complete a clerkship with the Honorable Cathy Bissoon in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania.

      I tried my first federal jury trial to verdict at age 26. With that victory, I became one of the youngest lawyers to win a federal civil rights trial.

      During my career, I have taken dozens of depositions, tried multiple cases to verdict, and have handled appeals.

      The skills I learned while working at a large international law firm (“Biglaw”), help me do just that.

      I am a graduate of Cornell Law School. There, I was on the Dean’s List my first semester, an honor given to the top 30% of the class.

      I also served as the academic advisor in the Black Law Student Association (BLSA).

      I graduated from Washington and Jefferson College, cum laude, with my degree in Political Science.

      Founding Attorney Andrew Lacy, Jr. Esq. created The Lacy Employment Law Firm, LLC to serve people, not corporations.

        It’s rather unfair to try to rate any lawyer on a scale. Few lawyers are a “10” or a “1.” That said, I rated this lawyer as a 9 because of his past successes, because of his excellent skills, work ethic, and character, and because of the great potential I see in him.

        I’ve known Andrew since we were both first year law students at Cornell. Two things have always stuck out to me about Andrew. First, even as a student, he was a consummate professional. He was always diligent, always prepared, and he always attacked issues head-on. Second, he has wonderful people skills. You can tell when you talk to Andrew that he’s truly listening and truly cares about what you’re saying. He is always engaged. Those qualities make Andrew a fantastic lawyer.

        Andrew is an exceptional attorney with an impressive educational and professional background. Andrew has accomplished more than any other attorney at his age, having accumulated a wide range of incredibly substantive legal experience. Notably, Andrew won his first jury trial for a federal civil rights case when he was just 26 years old. With his extensive legal knowledge and skills, along with his passion, I have no doubt he will provide the greatest level of care and attention to his clients.
