Concerned Hamburger sure hopes that School Superintendent Michael Cornell and Big Boy Thomas Flynn the Turd asked Hamburg Attorney Daniel Chiacchia, Esq permission before pulling this stunt.
According to the March 14, 2017 Hamburg School Board of Education meeting agenda, another law firm has been hired by the district. The law firm of Webster Szanyi,(click here: http://www.websterszanyi.com) has been secured as Hamburg School District's legal counsel.
It seems that the hundreds of thousands of dollars paid to Hodgson Russ lawyers since January 2014 just isn't enough money to address the seemingly endless legal problems of the school district.
Where is Daniel Chiacchia, Esq to lend his extensive expertise? Dan, where are you? (chasing ambulances?) When Hodgson Russ was hired by the school district in January 2014, Mr. Chiacchia had plenty of pearls of enlightenment to share (see January 14, 2014 board minutes). Where are the resumes of the Webster Szanyi lawyers? So, who are the attorneys at Webster Szanyi? And, where did Hodgson Russ go?
Mr. Chacha ought file a Petition with the NYS Education Commissioner to waive the conflict of interest flag of Webster Szanyi. (Its been reported that they already represent the district's insurance carrier.) But then again, Mr. Cha failed miserably in an embarrassing failure the last time he filed a Petition with the Commissioner, and even his boy Donald Ogilvie couldn't help in that case. So it seems, in the absence of Cha, it falls on Concerned Hamburger to raise the questions.
So, why is the district switching firms in the middle of the school year?
What are qualifications of the lawyers in the Webster Szanyi firm?
Where are the parent haters: Daniel Chiacchia,Esq., Madam Whipple, Eddy Piazza (and his bridezilla- Beth), and long lost Wendy Evenden to lend their expertise to the selection of firms. Could it be after spending hundreds of thousands with Hodgson Russ that the school board finally realized that Andrew Freedman and his band of merry minstrels are shit- and have regularly given shit advice (not to mention the physical attacks on former school board members).

It appears the Hamburg School Board is placing a member of the staff on paid administration leave.
In light of the pending cut in school aid, the actions of the district need to be questioned.
Where is the community when it comes time to hold the Boars of Education accountable?
