Pittsburgh’s Litigation Attorney – James Tallman, Personally on Your Case


Over 30 Years of Litigation Experience in Pittsburgh
James has spent over 30 years as a litigator, the last decade and a half fighting for people rather than companies or insurers. He began his career representing large corporations in high-stakes litigation, then made a deliberate choice to work for individuals instead: people who had been injured, wronged, or treated unfairly by those with more power and resources than they had.
A Personal Commitment to Injury and Civil Rights Clients
That choice was personal. James grew up in public housing in a single-parent household outside McKeesport, PA and understands first-hand what a fair outcome can mean to a family, and what its absence can cost.
Today, James takes on personal injury and civil rights cases himself, and is prepared to take a case to trial when that's what it takes to get a fair result, rather than settling simply because it's easier.
