Roy E. Leonard Elected to Membership in the Academy of Trial Lawyers of Allegheny County
Roy E. Leonard, founder of Leonard, PLLC, has been elected to the Academy of Trial Lawyers of Allegheny County. The Academy was created in the late 1950's by a number of distinguished lawyers who actively tried civil matters in state and federal courts in Allegheny County. The Academy was designated to include both plaintiff's and defendant's attorneys in generally balanced proportions who demonstrated and promoted not only exceptional trial advocacy, but also mutual respect, an independent judiciary, and integrity in judicial administration. Since its inception, membership in the Academy of Trial Lawyers has been invitation only, subject to peer review, and is presently limited to 250 active members.
