I highly recommend Attorney Nicole Nino. I called her about a situation with my spouse. Never Once did she rush me or seem uninterested in the case. She gave me a bunch of information Valuable information to help my spouses situation. I told her I would keep her information on file for future help in my business. She’s awesome and a rising star thanks, Nicole. — Dionia Wilson 03/13/2026 |

The best in the biz here in Pittsburgh, Phil is a great guy, very knowledgeable of the area judicial system plus has good working relations with local prosecutors, DA's and judges. His staff of lawyers are all also knowledgeable, friendly, willing to sit down and go over every detail to make sure they can help you in the best possible way they can. Office in the Grant Building is impressive which is a short walk to court house. Receptionist is over the top friendly as well. You get what you pay for and I dont recommend doing anything on the cheap when it can literally be life changing from one outcome to the next. I've came across two situations in the past 5 or 6 years and hired Phil's office each time. The first time Phil himself took my case and I was very impressed of his confidence to help me and he delivered. The second time Phil appointed Anthony to my case and the outcome was very pleasing to my surprise. Professional, knowledgeable, friendly, outgoing and respectful are the words that come to mind! They can consider me a client for life now! — bRiAN _j_ 0in0S 01/15/2026 |

I cannot express how pleased my family is with Anthony Donofrio. And not just because he made short work of the forces arrayed against me. This man actually cares about his clients, and personally called several times to ensure we were doing OK. EVERYTHING he told us turned out to be 100% correct. That is a huge deal to us, and very rare these days. He did everything he said he would do, when he said he would do it, and how he said he would do it. Anthony is friendly but professional, young but very smart, and aggressive when he needs to be. All the qualities anyone would look for in an attorney. This man has a bright future, I believe. Mr. DiLucente also called and was very kind, caring, and reassuring. This means a lot to us, and we won't forget it. I would not hesitate to call on these good folks for any reason. They are our law firm from now on! — Client 10/31/2025 |

I’m incredibly grateful to Nicole for taking my call on a holiday weekend and going above and beyond to help me. She took the time to research and explain the details of my traffic citation thoroughly—at no cost. Her guidance gave me the clarity and confidence I needed to develop a course of action on my own. It’s rare to come across someone so knowledgeable, responsive, and generous with their time. Highly recommend. — Ryan Sroka 07/03/2025 |

A Unwavering Advocate: Nicole’s Dedication Made All the Difference When I found myself in an incredibly challenging and frightening situation, my worries consumed me, making it feel as if my life was spiraling out of control. In the midst of this chaos, I consider myself exceptionally fortunate to have had Nicole as my legal representation. From the very start, she proved to be a beacon of hope for both me and my family, consistently offering reassurance and immense support throughout this harrowing journey. Nicole’s communication skills were outstanding; she made it a priority to be available whenever we needed her, which significantly alleviated our fears. She exhibited remarkable patience in addressing our seemingly endless stream of questions and concerns, ensuring that she took the necessary time to explain everything in a manner that was easy to grasp. This was particularly vital for us, as none of us had ever navigated such a traumatic experience before. Throughout the entire process, Nicole never once stopped fighting for me. She made sure that I was always comfortable with the decisions being made and kept me informed every step of the way. She treated us like family, creating a warm and inviting environment that made the process feel more manageable. Nicole's thoroughness, confidence and dedication in handling the substantial workload were truly impressive. She worked tirelessly, going above and beyond to assist me in every conceivable way. Moreover, she assembled a skilled team to support various aspects of the process, and they matched her excellence in every regard. Ultimately, the result exceeded my expectations, and I am incredibly grateful to Nicole for her relentless determination and for never losing faith in me. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone seeking a defense attorney. I genuinely believe she is the best attorney in the city, and I am deeply appreciative of her steadfast commitment and the invaluable assistance she provided during such a challenging chapter in my life. — Andrew Ranallo 05/23/2025 |

I want to thank Phil DiLucente & Associates. I am thankful that the Lord used Nicolena Nino-Rosato to aid Him in preserving my life. I was facing possible life unrecoverable charges, being past the stage of do overs. Being thankful is an understatement and I cannot fully express the appreciation that I have for this firm. With time and patience my charges were dismissed due to my lawyer being a perfectionist in the knowledge of law. The most important thing to me is my son and we are together. Thank you Lord Jesus and thanks to Phil DiLucente & Associates. — Client 11/20/2024 |

It is not very often that you search for and find someone who would go to extraordinary lengths to defend their client the way we have seen attorney Nicole Nino do for us. Had we not been able to secure the services of Nicole, I have no doubt the outcome would have been vastly different and devastating to my family. Prior to contacting Phil DiLucente & Associates, we had contacted 9 other attorneys. Upon hearing our story, and gauging from their responses, we ascertained immediately that much stronger representation was needed than what they were willing or able to give us. A series of events led us to Nicole and she did more for us in one 10-minute phone call than we could have fathomed possible. Her prominent standing within the Allegheny County judicial system and her outstanding reputation as a renowned attorney precede her as evidenced when we stood before court personnel, fellow attorneys, investigators and judges alike. Her very presence commands respect and is a mighty force to be reckoned with. Without sharing the details of our story, Nicole was able to negotiate on our behalf to secure a phenomenal outcome. There is a saying..."He who has the best attorney...wins." We witnessed through this entire process how very true this is. I highly recommend Attorney Nicole Nino to service your legal needs. She is amazing! Thank you Nicole! With warmest regards, Elle Johnson — Lilette Johnson 04/11/2024 |

My Son got into some trouble and I called this office on Saturday morning around 2am. Received a call back at 8:30am Saturday morning from Nicole Nino and she immediately starting working on his case. Hearing back from her so quickly gave me relief and comfort. After speaking with her I did not need to look any further. I knew she was the right person to handle this case. She was professional, compassionate and determined and was able to handle the situation over a holiday weekend and ultimately had a 100% positive outcome. Phil knowledgeable, Nicole Nino and the office staff were very professional and accommodating when we were in the office. MONEY WELL SPENT towards a caring, knowledgeable and reputable firm. I would recommend this law firm without hesitation. — Client 01/23/2024 |

I would like to thank Phil and Nicole for winning my case. Especially Nicole. Nicole is extremely knowledgeable. she identified the mistakes in the charges and successfully took the charge off. Her cross examinations totally made the lying party speechless and successfully exposed their own lies. Her speech is really powerful, convincing. Her instructions to juror is clear and to the point that prosecutors couldn't easily fool the juror. She also have a medical degree which made her really powerful on medical terms. She is also really responsive to your emails and calls. She is professional and will make sure your rights are protected. — Client 07/13/2023 |

I have known Phil for many years because I worked for another law firm which shared office space with several firms including Phil's. My daughter recently needed an attorney for a DUI and I immediately contacted Phil. Nicole Nino represented her and got the case dismissed. I cannot say enough for the professionalism and knowledgeable way she handled her case. She was excellent in explaining the possibilities of how the case may turn out and always kept us informed. I cannot say enough for this firm. I would strongly recommend it to anyone needing an attorney for any reason. I was a legal assistant for many years so I was familiar with the legal system. If anyone needs an attorney for any reason, "Call Phil." I guarantee you they can help! — Client 11/02/2022 |

Willing to fight for you and your family which is what drew us to her - she is a straight shooter who will tell you all of your options so you can prepare and chart the best path forward. She won our case - the alternatives I cannot even fathom - and we are forever grateful for her to have helped our family come out the other side stronger and with a better chance at a life together. — Client 01/16/2022 |

Unfortunately I have had to hire representation more times than I'd like to mention.. none better than Nicole Nino. Since the first time I met her she made me feel like I was in the best hands possible. I've literally watched over the years as shes became more and more reputable, but I knew since day one that she would always be my representation if ever needed again.. Well,, recently I needed her again, and I left with the charges dismissed and a letter from the judge himself. Nicole Nino, Best In The State..... I wouldn't recommend ANYONE else.... — Client 11/07/2021 |

I am so grateful and thankful to have had services provided by Phil DiLucente when addressing our local school district and unfair policy regarding a school dance. Something that may seem so trivial to others was a very big and important deal to me and my teenage daughter. Phil jumped right into action and was able to accomplish in two hours what I had been trying to accomplish in two weeks on my own. His expertise and knowledge contributed to having this unfair policy overturned so that she and students in her same situation were allowed to attend. I will recommend Phil DiLucente 100% to anyone who might need his services. — Stefanie B 09/29/2021 |
