About David S.
David S. Pollock earned his J.D. from Duquesne University School of Law in 1974. That degree marked the start of a long legal career that would span several decades and several professional roles. He remained connected to the Western Pennsylvania legal community and later helped shape a practice that carries his name.
In 2001 he became a founding partner of Pollock Begg Komar Glasser & Vertz LLC. As a founding partner he helped set the firm's direction and manage its development. The firm has been a base for his work and for collaborative practice with colleagues over many years.
Pollock holds a range of professional affiliations. He is a Fellow of the International Academy of Family Lawyers and a Fellow of the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers. He is also a Fellow of the Allegheny County Bar Association and the Allegheny County Bar Foundation, and he is a Life Fellow of the Pennsylvania Bar Association. He maintains membership in the American Bar Association, the Washington State Bar Association and the Westmoreland County Bar Association.
Those affiliations reflect steadier ties to family and matrimonial law circles. Over time his practice has come to center on the kinds of issues that members of those organizations commonly handle. His work has involved matters that are typically part of family law practice, including property division, child custody and support arrangements, and negotiated settlements. He has worked in both counsel and advocacy roles in cases that require careful handling of personal and financial matters.
Colleagues describe him as someone who has built a practice around long-term professional engagement rather than brief affiliations. He has balanced private practice responsibilities with active involvement in local and national bar groups. That mix of practice and professional activity has kept him connected to developments in family law and matrimonial practice across state and national lines.
He currently practices family law and matrimonial matters at Pollock Begg Komar Glasser & Vertz LLC.
