also known as Matthew Ness, Matt Ness
I grew up in suburban Pittsburgh in a blue collar family with connections to the region’s rich history of steel mills and construction. I was instilled with working class ethics and values that continues to embody me today — and that I recognize and appreciate in many of the people I represents in the criminal court system. I believe passionately that the basic principles the Founders of our Great Nation set forth regarding the rights of people accused of crimes are worth upholding and fighting for in court — and that’s what I do every day as a trial lawyer on behalf of clients facing what I describe as the “crushing power of the state.”
