Can both parties use the same lawyer in Pennsylvania family court matters?

No. A Pennsylvania family law and divorce attorney can represent only one party or spouse in a contested family law or divorce case. Sometimes, the parties decide that only one of them will retain an attorney. In this situation, the Pennsylvania family law lawyer prepares any paperwork or agreements on behalf of the client who hired the lawyer and any only gives advice to that client that has retained the attorney's services. The lawyer's client is the only party represented in this situation.

Our lawyers accept family law cases in Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), Armstrong County (Kittanning), Beaver County, Butler County, Somerset County, Washington County, and Westmoreland County (Greensburg).
