THE RIGHT LAWYERS
Our trial lawyers know the jury system in Western
Pennsylvania, including Pittsburgh, Beaver County,
Butler County, Washington County, and
Westmoreland County. Our goal is to give you peace
of mind by informing you of your important legal
rights.
Weekend/Evening appointments available.

THE RIGHT EXPERIENCE
Our experience will help you and your family with
cases involving: personal injury (car accident, slip
and fall, dog bite, product liability), family law
(divorce, support, child custody, adoption), and
criminal law (DUI, misdemeanor, felony). Let us help
you preserve the evidence you need to win your
case.

THE RIGHT ADVICE
We have we seen other lawyers advertise a "free
consultation," but what does that mean, exactly?
With us, you can sit down with an experienced
lawyer (not a paralegal) and we will answer every
question you have. If you are ready to have us work
toward settlement and/or take the case to trial, we
will proudly serve as--
Our lawyers handle personal injury on the plaintiff and defense side in Pennsylvania,and we
take cases involving negligence and strict liability, including dog bite / animal attack. Each lawyer in
our firm handles, car accident, slip and falls (premises liability, defective steps, slippery ground,
uneven ground, sidewalk), and other injury disputes throughout Western Pennsylvania: Allegheny
(Pittsburgh), Beaver, Butler, Washington, Lawrence, and Greene Counties (Waynesburg). Set up an
appointment for a FREE consultation with an attorney. A lawyer can come to you in Fayette
(Uniontown), Johnstown, Westmoreland County (Greensburg), Cambria County, Greene County,
Weirton, Wheeling, Morgantown, Monongahela, Monroeville, South Hills, Ross, Monaca, South Side
(Pittsburgh), Shadyside (Pittsburgh), North Side (Pittsburgh) Avalon, and Bellevue. Each lawyer with
us handles all types of automobile cases, including SUV rollover, tractor trailer cases, drowning,
negligent entrustment, fraud, multi-vehicle accidents, limited tort, full tort, work loss, short and long
term disability, asbestos, mesothelioma, and other cases.

Our family law litigation attorneys handle divorce (fault and no fault). Each lawyer with us
handles claims for custody (grandparent, parent, father, mother, step parent, interstate),
dependency hearings, PFA (protection from abuse), support (spousal support, alimony
pendente lite,
child support), prenuptial agreements, cohabitation agreements, and adoption. An attorney in our
firm will work with opposing counsel in your case to bring your divorce, support, or child custody
matter to an efficient and reasonable resolution. Why spend more on legal fees for divorce, support,
or custody than necessary? Your child or children deserve the best. Emotions will be running high
during your divorce, support claim, or child custody matter so why prolong the situation? We often
recommend mediation and early resolution of all support, child custody and divorce matters when
possible.

Our Criminal Law Lawyers accepts cases involving DUI (driving under the influence), simple
assault, aggravated assault, misdemeanor, felony cases, preliminary hearings, arraignments, jury
trial, negotation with the prosecutor for lesser sentence, including probation, alcohol counseling. Each
lawyer at our firm will work hard to get the best possible deal for you. You need an attorney to fight
hard for your rights when facing charges for a crime.
Our malpractice lawyers handle professional negligence cases. Any time a professional
service is rendered, it must meet the appropriate standard of care. This applies to medical, dental,
legal, or other services such as automotive repair, home construction or home remodeling. We
handle cases involving improper dental, medical, or nursing home care. We also litigate claims against
construction companies, contractors, builders, electricians, landscapers, and others who fail to adhere
to the standard of care you deserve. Give us a call to see if you have a valid claim against a doctor,
nurse, hospital, nursing home, contractor, or other professional. You might be entitled to money
damages if, for example, your contract takes longer than necessary to complete a new build or
remodeling project. Likewise, you can obtain a recovery if a mechanic makes an outrageously high
estimate and/or seeks to charge you an amount that no reasonable mechanic would charge in similar
circumstances.
