Attorney Todd Spivak provides strong, compassionate, cost-effective representation in all family law and criminal matters for clients based in Pittsburgh and all surrounding counties. A former investigative reporter, his work won numerous national awards and was twice nominated for The Pulitzer Prize.

His family-law practice includes divorce, child support and child custody, with a special focus on high-conflict cases involving allegations of parental alienation, mental illness, drug addiction and domestic abuse. He routinely represents plaintiffs and defendants at Protection From Abuse (PFA) hearings. His criminal-defense practice focuses on PFA violations, domestic violence and criminal-record expungements.

Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Attorney Spivak attended classes at Columbia University in New York, received a Bachelor of Arts degree from closely affiliated Albert A. List College, and earned a Juris Doctor degree from University of Colorado Law School. He writes on legal matters for The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette and the Pennsylvania Bar Association.
