Richard Rosenthal, Pittsburgh Injury & Accident Attorney

[GRAPHIC: Super Lawyers, Richard Rosenthal rated by Super Lawyers, Attorney Richard Rosenthal on how his past defense experience helps his clients today.]

Richard Rosenthal: My name is Rick Rosenthal. I practice law and I’m a partner at the law firm of Edgar Snyder & Associates in Pittsburgh. I’ve been practicing law as a senior litigator in the western 27 counties of Pennsylvania since 1980.

I grew up in a poor family, and we didn’t have an attorney. When my father got sick and we needed help we had no one to go to. As I got older and saw that attorneys actually help people I wanted to do that type of work. For the first ten years that I was a litigator I represented government agencies, represented corporations, and I represented individuals, all who were being sued. I knew what the defenses were, I knew which defenses were actually good ones, and I knew which defenses really weren’t. Now that I practice law on the plaintiff side and I’m representing individuals who have been injured, I understand where the defenses that the defense is making actually apply and when they don’t.
