He will assist Goodrich on direction and growth of the organization and Sayers on overall company performance. Mack joined the company in 1993 and had been serving as president since 2015.

LeChase’s father, Raymond, founded the firm in Rochester in 1944. Celebrating its 80th anniversary this year, the company achieved a milestone $1 billion in revenue in 2023 – serving clients from its offices across New York State as well as in North Carolina, New Jersey and Maryland.

“We’re very proud of the foundation built during the company’s first 80 years, and we expect to continue our growth as we enter the next 80,” said Goodrich. “The culture Wayne and his father built truly inspires people to excel and to always do the right thing – for their colleagues, our clients, our business partners and our communities. We will continue to embrace that spirit, and those values, going forward.”
