About Steven

I am the managing partner at Eddy DeLuca Gravina & Townsend and co-founder of ShaleAdvice, LLC.

I practice in many areas of law with an emphasis on Criminal Defense, Personal Injury and Oil and Gas.  

Currently I serve as a Criminal Justice Act Panel Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylvania District Court, I am a Board Member for a nationally recognized business incubator, Riverside Center for Innovation, and a Board Member of PCTV.  I am also general counsel for several small and start-up companies.  

As a Pittsburgh criminal defense attorney, I frequently I speak at seminars and continuing education symposiums to educate and update other attorneys in the ever-changing area of criminal law.  In 2010, I was part of the task force responsible for creating one of the country’s first ever Veteran’s Courts.

When you contact my law firm for help with your legal matter, you will meet directly with me and I will personally handle your case from start to finish.  I challenge and encourage you to compare my experience and commitment to you with anyone else.

Please call to inquire about our fee structure.
