Steve is one of the top lawyers in Pittsburgh. His grasp of the law, knowledge and experience are second to none. I retained Steve a couple of month ago and it's been an absolute blessing. Steve, I can't thank you enough. You helped save my son's life and brought to light many things that assisted in getting the DA's Office to drop 5 felonies!

I hired Steve to represent me when someone stole my credit card numbers, he got all my money back even after the local DA refused to prosecute. I hired him later to represent an addict relative, Steve helped him get into a rehab center and 3/4 house instead of jail. Hopefully my relative will take advantage of this opportunity.

Attorney Townsend was very professional and compassionate to a very delicate situation. We were scared and did not know where to turn. He knew exactly how to resolve the criminal case quickly and efficiently. I appreciated his knowledge and professionalism. I highly recommend him. Thanks Steve!

I was in the law enforcement profession for 25 years and have been encircled by many defense attorneys in the profession. Obviously being in that profession I was always sitting on the prosecution side of the table; however, I found myself in a complex and unfortunate situation where I was required to find a qualified defense attorney. One of my colleagues recommended Attorney Steve Townsend as the go to guy for an outstanding defense attorney. After meeting with Steve, the tempo was set, he was the one I chose to represent me in the defense of the charges I had to face. I found with Attorney Townsend he was honest, he never color coated anything, and wasn't one to tell you what you wanted to hear. I also discovered that he wasn't about numbers or displaying a character of a "Perry Mason" figure and always winning his cases. However, he was about taking the route that was best for his client and representing him with the utmost concern and understanding for feelings. Although I was in the law enforcement profession and very experienced there were many legal avenues I wasn't aware that took place in the Federal criminal proceedings. I surely was never aware that this court favored the prosecution side and sitting in the defense was like being "guilty and proving your innocence" instead of "innocent until proven guilty" . Attorney Townsend felt my case was very defend able and had confidence in defeating the charges, but once he explained the unfairness for the defense in this particular court system, his interest wasn't about chalking one into his win column. His concern became what was in the best interest for his client. Having been involved with many defense attorneys through law enforcement I know that many times defense attorney's just want to make a deal in reduction of the charges, and be on their way to the next client. This approach was never displayed or dictated by this attorney, instead he recognized the unfairness, the good character in me, and what was best for myself & my family. Once Attorney Townsend explained the unfairness that I would be faced with, the options that we had, and what was in my best interest, the decision was made. Believe me, after all my years sitting on the prosecution side of that table it wasn't an easy journey now sitting on the defensive side, but having Attorney Townsend was a great morale lifting, and one of the best defense attorneys I have been involved with. Believe me folks, Attorney Townsend is very knowledgeable, knows when his client is being railroaded, and certainly is educated into having his client make the correct decisions for the right coarse of action and in their best interest. Although my particular case is upsetting and we both know that the arresting agency utilized questionable and unjustifiable tactics, we both also recognized the coarse of action needed to protect my family. Attorney Townsend's decision for the route we accepted wasn't about running to his next client to make the money, but about what was best for my family and me. What became even more amazing with this gentleman is after my case was completed, this guy still stays in touch with me, and still brings that morale lifting and brings me the confidence that is needed when one goes through such demoralizing circumstances. If anyone would ask me about Steve Townsend I would simply tell them he is NOT only a great defense attorney, but a truly honest and pleasantly honorable gentleman that cares about the people he serves. Thanks Steve for the work you put forth and knowing me as the genuine person that I am.
