I've been practicing in Western Pennsylvania since 2000, after my wife brought me north from law school.. I was raised in Newark, Delaware, attending the Univeristy of Delaware.  Prior to college, I worked as a draftsman for a small engineering firm in Newport, Delaware, just outside of Wilmington.  After graduating from college, I worked at Kaplan as an instructor for standardized test preparation.  I taught courses for the SAT, GRE, and LSAT.  I then went to law school at Washington & Lee University School of Law in Lexington, Virginia.. While in law school, I did two internships: one with the Public Defender's office in Baltimore, Maryland, and another with the local Public Defender in Virginia.  For each of these I had the opportunity to sit through a murder trial, assisting the Public Defender in the defense.  I also worked as a research assistant to Professor Louise Halper prior to my last year of law school.. After moving north to Greensburg, I worked for a year in Pittsburgh for a small plaintiff's firm, suing life insurance companies for fraudulent and deceptive practices.  I then accepted a position at Berk, Whitehead, Kerr & Turin in August 2001.  In 2014, Berk, Whitehead, Kerr & Turin was restructured into our current firm, Turin & DeMatt, P.C.. I've had the opportunity to try numerous criminal jury trials, which have included an acquittal in Federal Court in a case where my client was accused of selling counterfeit software to the U.S. Army, as well as an acquittal in a homicide case.

5 Star Review: "Mr. Waltman recently represented me against felony charges related to the sale/transfer of firearms. From day one he put me (and more importantly my wife) at ease. Personable, fairly priced and quick to respond to any questions. In the end Mr. Waltman had the case dismissed at the preliminary hearing". I'm a 2003 graduate of Penn State University, University Park, and moved to Pittsburgh in 2004 after receiving a full academic scholarship to attend Duquesne University School of Law. While studying for my law degree, I worked for a personal injury firm and was heavily involved in the University's nationally renowned trial advocacy program. As a result of my efforts, I was admitted to the Order of Barristers and awarded the Katie Elizabeth Westbrook Award for Outstanding Achievement in Trial Advocacy, an award only given to one student per year.. After obtaining my J.D. in 2007, I briefly worked for a large civil defense firm before pursuing my true passion of representing criminal defendants as an Allegheny County Assistant Public Defender. Working in the Office of the Public Defender allowed me to immediately begin to hone my skills as a trial attorney, trying my first jurty trial in 2008, earning my wrongfully accused client a full acquittal.. Having represented hundreds of clients and trying many jury and non-jury trials as an Assistant Public Defender, I went into private practice in 2010, where I continued to represent and defend the rights of the criminally accused. I have successfully represented clients at all stages of criminal prosecution in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. From minor driving offenses to the most serious of crimes, criminal homicide, I have fought for the rights of my clients with unwavering conviction.
