Dedicated to Each Other
Collegiality is the cornerstone of our firm. Our veteran attorneys, trial- and transaction-tested, form the strong foundation: actively practicing law, mentoring younger associates, and volunteering in their communities.
Attorneys at SMGG have a team approach: we want each other to succeed professionally and personally.
Our new generation of partners carries on the culture of supporting each other because we know that relationships, both within and outside the office, are the backbone of our success. We believe that how we treat each other carries through to how we treat clients: the better we are internally, the better we can serve clients.
Our dedication to each other includes a focus on empowering female attorneys to thrive, an effort that has resulted in our firm becoming majority women-owned as of 2022.
Devoted to Our Communities
SMGG was built from Strassburger McKenna Gutnick & Potter and Gefsky and Lehman — two well-established and respected Pittsburgh firms. Our long tradition of serving the Pittsburgh community has grown with us as we have expanded throughout Western Pennsylvania and beyond.
The attorneys of SMGG show devotion to their communities in a variety of ways, serving as leaders with a wide variety of organizations including those listed below.
