Biography
Joining the firm's Family & Collaborative Law Group in November 2024, Tony brings a unique perspective of family law to his role.
Prior to joining GRB Law, he spent over 10 years clerking for judges at both the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas Family Division and at the Superior Court of Pennsylvania. During his tenure at the judiciary, he assisted in hundreds of family law appeals, including precedent-setting decisions affecting millions of Pennsylvanians. His deep understanding of the judicial decision-making process enables him to provide invaluable guidance as he establishes his practice at GRB.
Tony will be counseling clients with matters such as alimony, child support and custody, divorce, equitable distribution, adoptions, protections from abuse and beyond.
As of September 2025, Tony began a three-year term as an At Large Member of the Allegheny County Bar Association's Judiciary Committee. The committee evaluates prospective judicial candidates, assessing their professional qualifications, integrity, commitment to equal justice and judicial temperament.
