Divorce
Guardianship
For individuals, we provide tax advice to clients at all stages of life, from establishing the best qualified college savings plan to gifts to minors for very young children to arranging for guardianship and health care issues for the very elderly. We also assist with Family Limited Partnerships, which can provide tax savings for those with oil and gas royalties.

Criminal Defense
So whether you need help with a contract, a partnership dispute, an injunction to enforce a non-competition or trade secret, or any other commercial dispute, we are here to protect your rights. We also have a white collar criminal defense practice that represents individuals and organizations who are facing internal investigations, grand jury investigations or state, federal or county prosecutions.
DUI/DWI
Bill previously served as President of Mothers Against Drunk Driving of Allegheny/Westmoreland/Beaver Counties from 1997-99. He has also served as an advisor for PowerLink and on its Board of Directors from 1997-99.
Fraud
White Collar Crimes
Rothman Gordon’s White Collar Criminal Defense/Internal Investigations practice represents individuals and organizations who are facing internal investigations, grand jury investigations, and federal or state prosecutions. In addition to representing subjects, targets and defendants, we also provide services to victims and witnesses of crimes. White collar crime can include fraud, embezzlement, insider trading, bribery, tax evasion, and forgery. White collar criminal investigations usually take months to conduct, enabling investigators and prosecutors to gather witness statements, documents, information and other evidence long before criminal charges are filed. Consequently, individuals and organizations who are the subjects of such investigations need to quickly assemble a defense strategy, while mitigating risk, misinformation, and bad press.
Theft
Embezzlement
Forgery
Money Laundering

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law

Our clients rely upon us for pragmatic solutions to a wide variety of problems, from structuring complicated transactions to resolving internal disputes. Drawing upon their broad understanding business and corporate law, as well as our Primerus network, our lawyers advise local, regional, national and international businesses through the entire business life cycle.
Mergers and Acquisitions
Rothman Gordon lawyers regularly counsel our clients on mergers & acquisitions, as well as the sales of businesses (including asset deals, stock deals, and international transactions) and corporate reorganizations. We can assist you with due diligence, preparation and/or review of loan agreements and the strategic planning, negotiation and documentation of all aspects of the transaction. We are equipped to address issues involving real estate, environmental concerns, intellectual property and taxes in the context of the particular deal.
Business Disputes
Frank Salpietro is the Chair of Rothman Gordon’s Commercial and Business Litigation practice and a member of the firm’s Executive Committee. He is a seasoned litigation and corporate/transactional practitioner representing regional, national and international clients, including individuals, family-owned enterprises, lending institutions and start-ups.

Frank’s class action experience has allowed him to give hundreds of thousands of individuals and consumers a voice in the courts, helping correct wrongs done to them by major retailers, banks, employers, and utility companies. His corporate experience includes stock and asset acquisitions and sales, formation and representation of business entities, loan documentation and a wide variety of contracts and leasing.
Business Transactions
Structuring and Negotiating Business Transactions. Our attorneys are highly skilled in structuring and negotiating various forms of business transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, and other business combinations. We also assist clients with the purchases and sales of assets, stock and various other types of transactions.
Limited Liability Companies
Some business forms, if properly used, provide the owners with a shield from liability, so that only the business assets (and not the owner’s personal assets) can be reached if there is a judgment against the business due to a mistake. Corporations, limited partnerships, and limited liability companies can each provide a shield for personal assets against business debts. There are requirements that must regularly be met to keep that shield in place, however, and the costs of forming and maintaining one of those business entities may be more than the business can afford. Thus, some businesses prefer to operate as a sole proprietorship or general partnership.
Trade Secrets
Intellectual Property

Workers Compensation
Wrongful Termination
Often people are rightfully worried about providing for themselves and their families until they can find a new job. They just look at how much pay they will get in their severance package and then sign the papers. But severance agreements can be high technical, with terms that seem unimportant at the time, but could create difficulties later. The agreement may contain a non-compete provision, which could hinder your job search, preventing you from taking a position with a competitor. It may restrict your right to sue your employer for wrongful termination, even if you were terminated for an illegal reason. Although this is a difficult time, you owe it to yourself to fully understand what your soon to be ex-employer is asking you to sign.
Employment Discrimination
Racial discrimination occurs when a person is negatively singled out because of that person’s race or color. Harassment may include, for example, racial slurs, offensive or derogatory remarks about a person’s race or color, or use of racially offensive symbols. While one time teasing or offhand comments are not considered to be illegal, harassment that occurs so frequently or severely that it creates a hostile or offensive work environment IS a sign you may want to consult a race discrimination lawyer. Our Pittsburgh office has helped people throughout Western PA deal with illegal harassment.
Employment Contract
Noah provides counsel to numerous local unions in Western Pennsylvania representing professional, para-professional, and non-professional employees on collective bargaining, labor arbitration, and contract administration matters in both the public and private sectors. Noah also represents and counsels clients in various employment matters, including litigating discrimination claims on behalf of employees, negotiating and reviewing separation, severance, non-compete, and other types of employment agreements, and representing parties in unemployment compensation hearings.

Employment Litigation
All the work I do, whether representing unions in traditional labor law matters, or representing individuals with employment issues, is focused on helping to achieve more fairness in the workplace. A job is not just what someone does to earn a living – it is an extension of who they are. Everyone, regardless of what they do, deserves to feel pride in their work and to be treated with the respect they deserve from their employer. My goal is to put my knowledge, skills, and experience to use by helping my clients to accomplish this.
Non-compete Agreement
Even if the non-compete agreement is not enforceable, it may affect your job search, as not only you, but your new employer, may be subject to legal action if found in violation of the contract. We represent employees in Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania who have been sued by their former employer for violating a non-compete agreement. With more than a quarter-century of experience in the courtroom, we have a deep understanding of employment law and the litigation skill needed to protect your rights.
Severance Agreement
If your employment has been terminated, your employer may offer you a severance agreement package. While it may be tempting to sign it right away, you have the right to have an experienced employment attorney review the document, within a reasonable time frame.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment is a form of employment discrimination because a person is subjected to unwelcome and offensive acts based upon sex. Sexual harassment has been generally broken up into two categories: (1) “hostile environment” in which you are subjected to severe and pervasive sexually offensive conduct, such as unwelcome touching and grabbing, pornography, sexually suggestive jokes or comments in the workplace that a reasonable person would find offensive or (2) “quid pro quo” sexual harassment, in which your employment conditions, such as a promotion or the threat of being fired, are dependent upon sexual favors or advances. Our Pittsburgh office has dealt with numerous cases like these.

Disability Discrimination
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) protects you from discrimination at work if you have a physical or mental impairment. Employers covered by the ADA are prohibited from discriminating against employees and job applicants in all employment practices, including, job application procedures, hiring, firing, promotions, compensation, training, and conditions of employment. The Act also covers recruitment, advertising, tenure, layoff, and leave. Additionally, it is illegal to harass an employee or job applicant because of a disability.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Death comes to us all. We will encounter it many times in our lives with the final encounter being our own eventual demise. It is human nature to avoid the topic. No one wants to deal with his or her own mortality. Very often, the tendency is to put off estate planning to a later date. We don’t want to deal with issues of death and the changes it brings until we must. Unfortunately, by the time they are forced to deal with these events, our survivors are faced with choices and tasks that are made much more difficult than they would have been had we taken the time to plan for that day that we all must face.
