Aaron Klavon

Criminal Defense Attorney

I was born and raised in Allegheny County. Like many in Western Pennsylvania, I was raised to value family, hard work, and community. My love for our community is what drove me to criminal defense. As a young man, I saw countless others have their lives turned upside down by the government’s accusations. I am dedicated to protecting my clients from that fate.

Legal Background:

From the moment I got to law school at the University of Pittsburgh, I knew I wanted to work in criminal defense.  I am one of the lucky people that found their passion in life.  I started interning at the Office of the Public Defender in Allegheny County during my first year of law school. After graduating from Pitt Law, I accepted a position as an attorney at the Office of the Public Defender. From intern to law clerk to attorney, I have dedicated every moment of my legal career to criminal defense.  I’ve resolved thousands of criminal cases. If you are charged with a crime in Western Pennsylvania, I’ve probably dealt with something substantially similar. 

Client Focused Representation

While cases can be similar. I am a firm believer that no two cases are exactly alike. All clients are different therefore all cases are different. Unfortunately, some lawyers struggle with listening. They tend to drive cases toward pleas or the fastest resolution. My philosophy is to listen to my clients and work together to identify they resolution that is best for them. At Klavon Law, you will be heard and we will do everything we can to achieve the best possible result for you.

Outside of the Office:

When I’m not working, I try to spend my free time with my family and friends. If I am not with my family, you can find me searching for records in one of our great record stores in the area. Beyond music, I love watching sports and supporting our local teams.
