Joshua Gallo is an attorney at the nationally ranked law firm of Steptoe & Johnson, PLLC, which has over 450 attorneys and 18 offices nationwide, where he practices in the areas of energy, mineral title and Environmental and Social and Governance (ESG) law out of their Southpointe office in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. He is experienced in drafting complex division order title opinions, drilling title opinions and abstracting for Appalachian Basin oil and gas clients, and performing large-scale due diligence projects. He also works with major energy clients to resolve pre-litigation disputes. Prior to law school, Joshua was an oil and gas landman working for a major exploration and production company in the Marcellus Shale geographic area.
Joshua has an undergraduate degree in political science from the University of Pittsburgh at Greensburg and attained his Juris Doctor degree from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, where he was a member of the Criminal Law Journal. He is licensed to practice law in Pennsylvania and has internship/externship experience in the United States Senate and the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania.
Beyond work, Joshua and his wife, Lia, a Registered Nurse, raise two (2) daughters, Clare and Branna. Branna was born with bilateral clubfeet in 2016 and neither Joshua nor Lia had any experience with clubfeet. They did not know if she would walk and were anxious about her future. Branna was quickly treated by doctors at Children’s Hospital in Pittsburgh using the Ponseti Method and the Mitchell Brace and the results were incredible. She now lives an active and athletic lifestyle, where she plays ice hockey and is a gymnast, neither of which would have been possible without quick access to high-quality clubfoot treatment in a major U.S. city.
As a Board Member at Hope Walks, Joshua seeks to use his experiences and talents to help children born with clubfeet, and their families, experience Christ’s love by providing them with access to the same high-quality treatment that Branna received in geographic areas where such treatment was previously unattainable.
