Video Profile: A lifelong athlete, sports fan, and now little league coach for his three kids most weekends, Seth Laver spends his weekdays defending the reputations of lawyers, accountants and other licensed professionals across Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York.

“When I can assist a professional who’s built a reputation and a career, and I can achieve the result that they’re shooting for, it’s potentially life changing for them and that feels really good,” said Seth, a partner in Goldberg Segalla’s Philadelphia office.

Promoted recently to vice chair of the firm’s Accountants Professional Liability Practice, Seth’s success is a byproduct of his hard work, drive and meticulous preparation — lessons and habits developed during his days as a competitive athlete.

But, he said, what truly allows him to thrive in his career is Goldberg Segalla’s culture of mentorship, collaboration and teamwork.

“This firm is different in how we treat each other, how we treat our clients,” said Seth. “I consider myself really fortunate that I’m surrounded by folks that share the same ideals that I do, that care about what we do professionally, and care about each other.”
