My areas of practice include family law, media law, and government relations.I'm a Pittsburgh person, born and bred. After high school, I went on to earn my undergraduate degree in political science (with a minor in international studies) from The Ohio State University. I then went on to complete my juris doctorate at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law in 2011.After graduation, I was proud to have earned the 2011 American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers Award for the Pennsylvania Chapter.

My divorce was starting to look much different than what I thought my ex-wife and I had amicably agreed upon. She hired a lawyer and never told me about it, then did a complete 180 on me and basically wanted everything but the shirt off my back. Because we have children, I wanted things to be as least messy as possible. During my time with Attorney Kunka, we came to discover that she actually had monthly income of which I was not aware, in addition to a trust that she had never mentioned before in our fourteen years together. Needless to say, Mr. Kunka impeccably argued my case and we came to a very fair agreement. Situations like these are not fun, so it was great to know Ellis had my back and answers to my questions from the time we began working together. For someone who is independently wealthy and stood to lose everything, Mr. Kunka saved me and my relationship with my kids. Thanks, Ellis!
