Biography
Michael Worgul is a criminal defense attorney in Pittsburgh, PA. Michael frequently defends clients who have been charged with a DUI, drug crimes, sex crimes, and other criminal matters. Born and raised in Pittsburgh, Michael Worgul has devoted his career to defending people throughout Western Pennsylvania. A graduate of Duquesne University, where he earned both his undergraduate and law degrees, Michael began his career with a private law firm before serving two years at the Allegheny County Office of Conflict Counsel, representing individuals in need of strong legal advocacy.
In 2008, he founded his own practice to help people navigate some of life’s most stressful challenges. Michael is admitted to the Pennsylvania Bar and the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. He is also an active member of the Allegheny County Bar Association (Criminal Litigation Section) and the Pennsylvania State Bar Association.
A trial lawyer at heart, Michael has handled cases ranging from minor misdemeanors to serious felony charges, trying more than 30 jury cases — far exceeding the industry average. He believes every client deserves a fair trial and an honest assessment of their options, not just pressure to take a plea.
Outside of work, Michael enjoys time with his wife (also a criminal defense attorney), their daughter, and their extended Pittsburgh family. He’s passionate about home renovation, music, and the arts — and you can often find him spending Sundays around the family dinner table.
