Brendan Lupetin

Brendan Lupetin is a trial lawyer and managing partner of Lupetin & Unatin, LLC, a law firm focused on prosecuting and trying medical negligence and catastrophic injury lawsuits.  Ove the course of his career, Brendan has tried nearly 50 civil jury trials to verdict, obtaining numerous multi-million-dollar verdicts along the way.

The son of a doctor and trauma counselor Brendan learned early on the importance of compassion, empathy and to always stand up for what is right, no matter the consequence. It is these attributes, ingrained in his legal practice, that have led Brendan to be repeatedly named a “Super Lawyer” by the Pennsylvania Super Lawyers whose honorees are selected by their peers as being among the top up-and-coming lawyers in the state.

Brendan attributes many of the unique attributes that help him win for his clients at trial to his grandfather Edward “Pop” Sullivan, a prominent plaintiff’s personal injury lawyer in New York City. Brendan believes his affinity for medical malpractice lawsuits stems from his own experience as a victim of medical malpractice as a child. While Brendan has great respect for the medical profession, especially doctors and nurses, he knows first-hand that meaningful medical mistakes do happen and must be accounted for.

Following a four-year tenure as a scholarship swimmer at the University of Pittsburgh, Brendan received his BS and went on to obtain a JD from the University of Pittsburgh School of Law in 2005. Brendan is admitted to practice before the Pennsylvania Supreme Court the District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania and the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. He is a member of the American Association of Justice, the Western Pennsylvania Association for Justice, and is a founding member of the Allegheny County Bar Association’s Chapter of Toastmaster’s International.

Brendan is a member of the American College of Trial Lawyers, an invitation only fellowship of pre-eminent lawyers in the United States and Canada, and a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA), a prestigious national association of experienced trial lawyers and judges. These admissions follow his induction into the Academy of Trial Lawyers of Allegheny County – an invitation only organization limited to 250 of the most exceptional civil trial lawyers in Allegheny County.  Brendan has repeatedly been recognized by Super Lawyers and Best Lawyers and most recently has been named a Top 50 Super Lawyer in Pittsburgh and Top 100 Super Lawyer in Pennsylvania.
