Hi-

I am looking to relocate back to Pittsburgh. I am currently employed as a Paralegal and would like to have a list of the largest law firms in Pittsburgh.

I have done some internet research and am aware of a few (Reed Smith, Cohen & Grigsby, K&L Gates).

Thanks!

Check out Orrick in Wheeling also. Lots of people commute there from Pittsburgh and the South Hills.

I know Cohen & Grigsby are the sixth largest in Pittsburgh, so there must be five bigger.

Pittsburgh is home to two law schools and over 10,000 lawyers. Lots of different firms with lots of different attitudes. Not a lot of opportunities for paralegals, as there are many lawyers who can't get full time jobs who will settle for paralegal jobs.

How about moving south where the economy is booming
