Story Behind our Pittsburgh Law Firm

Our Pittsburgh Law Firm was founded in 1997 by attorneys Dwayne D. Woodruff and Shawn T. Flaherty. Both partner's names were highly recognizable in the city of Pittsburgh since the 1970’s due to professional sports and politics.

Founding Partner, Dwayne Woodruff was a Super Bowl champion with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1979 and played twelve seasons for the Steelers until his retirement in 1990. He gained notoriety nationwide for not only winning a super bowl and 37 interceptions in the NFL, but for also preparing for life after his football career by attending and excelling at the Duquesne University School of Law. Dwayne is now a presiding Judge in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania.

Founding Partner Shawn Flaherty is a former Pennsylvania State Representative (30th Congressional District) and also the eldest son of the beloved former Mayor of the City of Pittsburgh, the late Honorable Peter (Pete) Flaherty. Our firm had the pleasure of working with Mayor "Pete" until his passing in 2005.
