edit

Gerard Karam - Previous edits to the Education and Biography section have been made and reverted back. Wikipedia's Education shows Bachelor of Arts, the correct Bachelor degree is Bachelor of Science. I would like to edit the Education to read as follows: He earned a Bachelor of Science from Saint Joseph’s University in 1984 and received his law degree in 1987 from Loyola University School of Law.  He resides in Dickson City, Pennsylvania.

Edits were also previously made to the Biography section to include more details and additional information about Gerard Karam. I would like to edit the Biography section to read as follows: Gerard M. Karam was a partner in the Scranton law firm of Mazzoni, Karam, Petorak and Valvano for 27 years, and served as the managing partner for 20 years. His practice focused on complex civil and criminal litigation.  His experience includes corporate and individual representation on cases involving civil rights violations, corporate compliance laws, homicide, public corruption, tax evasion, drug offenses, fraud offenses, firearms offenses and personal injury claims.

From 1990-1993, Mr. Karam was an Assistant Public Defender in the County of Lackawanna.  In 1994, he was promoted to Chief Public Defender, a position he held for 10 years.  From 2010-2022, Mr. Karam served as General Counsel to the Housing Authority of Lackawanna County, a Federal Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Agency.

Mr. Karam is a former President of the Lackawanna Bar Association and was a long time Director on the Boards of the Boys and Girls Club of Northeastern Pennsylvania, the Children’s Advocacy Center of Northeastern Pennsylvania, and Drug and Alcohol Treatment Services of Northeastern Pennsylvania..

You can refer to justice.gov/usao-mdpa/meet-us-attorney, the United States Attorney's Office website for the Middle District of Pennsylvania as a published source.

Please let me know if you agree and I am able to edit to read as above.
