David Stern, a founding partner of the Philadelphia workers’ compensation and Social Security disability law firm previously known as Pond Lehocky Stern Giordano who sued the firm last week to dissolve the partnership, is now seeking an emergency injunction, alleging that he’s been unlawfully expelled from the partnership and that the firm is now taking steps to “steal” his clients and cases.

On Dec. 3, Stern filed a complaint in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas against the firm, as well as against managing partner Samuel Pond and the firm’s two other equity partners, Jerry Lehocky and Thomas Giordano, alleging Pond had engaged in “continued efforts to coerce Stern into forfeiting his partnership interest” while the other partners stood idly by.
