Genova Burns raising funds for American Heart Association

Newark law firm Genova Burns Giantomasi & Webster are among firms throughout Morris and Essex counties taking part in the Lawyers Have Heart Challenge, a fundraising effort on behalf of the American Heart Association.

The Essex County Heart Walk is scheduled for Sunday, October 21.  Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. and the walk begins at 10:00 a.m.
