Ciccarelli Law Offices to Offer Bi-Yearly $1000.00 SCHOLARSHIPS

Ciccarelli Law Offices is a Litigation Team based in West Chester Pennsylvania and made of personal injury attorneys, accident attorneys, as well as criminal defense, DUI and family law attorneys.

Lee Ciccarelli, our founder, understands how important a college education can be and also understands the significant expense of either public or private college education.

Our law firm values education and knows how hard it is for students and their family to manage the expense of housing, tuition, books and school supplies. In an effort to make things a little easier for students and their families, we are pleased to be offering a bi-yearly (February & July) $1000 scholarship to individuals who are currently attending or planning on attending college or graduate school in the near future.

The scholarship is awarded on a one-time basis. The scholarship is contingent on the applicant actually attending college or graduate school. Distribution of any award will occur at the discretion of Ciccarelli Law Offices and is subject to verification of all eligibility.
