About Rebecca A
Rebecca A Myers is a Pennsylvania attorney whose career has been rooted in family law and dispute resolution. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from the University of Pittsburgh in 2001 and stayed in Pittsburgh for law school, taking her J.D. from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law in 2004. Those years in Pittsburgh shaped her interest in client counseling and negotiated solutions.
She joined Gentile Horoho & Avalli in 2005 as an associate. Over the next decade she handled a range of family law matters, moving from casework to firm leadership. In 2016 she was named a principal at the firm, a role that expanded her responsibilities to include mentoring younger lawyers and helping manage the office’s practice areas. Her career reflects steady progression within a single firm rather than frequent moves.
Myers holds collaborative law training through CLASP and is a certified mediator in divorce and family matters by the Association for Conflict Resolution. Those credentials inform how she approaches disputes. She works both at the negotiation table and in mediation sessions, and she prepares cases for court when settlement is not possible. Her practice blends direct client advocacy with structured alternatives to litigation.
She has been active in professional circles connected to collaborative practice and family law. Since 2016 she has held a leadership role in CLASP, serving as Chair of the organization’s membership. She is also a long-standing member of the Allegheny County Bar Association, joining in 2005. Her involvement in these groups keeps her engaged with changes in family law practice and dispute resolution techniques.
Myers’s workday is divided between client meetings, mediation sessions and case preparation. She spends time drafting settlement agreements and parenting plans as often as she spends time preparing pleadings for court. Colleagues describe her as methodical in case preparation and pragmatic in client consultations. She emphasizes clear communication and practical options over legal theory.
She practices from offices of Gentile Horoho & Avalli and at the firm’s GHA Cranberry location. Her caseload generally involves divorce, custody, support matters and related family law disputes. Her practice also regularly makes use of collaborative law tools and mediation services to resolve family conflicts outside of court. Her current practice concentrates on family law and mediation.
