The Duquesne University Small Business Development Center (SBDC) is proud to celebrate the accomplishments of client Antonio A. Bonnetty, Esq., founder and principal attorney of Bonnetty Law, PLLC, who has been selected to the 2026 Rising Stars list by Super Lawyers. This prestigious recognition honors exceptional attorneys who demonstrate professional achievement and peer recognition, representing no more than 2.5% of lawyers in each state. According to Super Lawyers, Antonio was selected for the 2026 Rising Stars list for his outstanding work in family law and criminal defense.
Antonio’s journey began at the Thomas R. Kline School of Law of Duquesne University, where he earned his Juris Doctor in 2022. After graduating and becoming licensed to practice in Pennsylvania the same year, Antonio launched Bonnetty Law, PLLC, a solo practice dedicated to serving clients navigating complex family, juvenile dependency, and criminal matters.
His dedication extends beyond the courtroom. Antonio is an active member of the Allegheny County Bar Association and the Pennsylvania Bar Association, serving on multiple committees focused on children’s rights, diversity, inclusion, access to justice, and community service. He also volunteers his legal expertise through Neighborhood Legal Services.
The Duquesne University SBDC supported Antonio as he built and strengthened his practice, offering guidance in business planning, operations, and strategic growth as he transitioned from law school graduate to successful firm owner. His inclusion on the Rising Stars list is not only a testament to his legal excellence but also an inspiring example of the impact that focused entrepreneurship support can have on emerging professionals.
“Being named to the 2026 Rising Stars list is an incredible honor,” Antonio shared. “The Duquesne SBDC played an important role in helping me establish my firm’s foundation, and I’m grateful for their guidance as I continue to grow my practice and serve the community.”
The Duquesne University SBDC congratulates Antonio on this outstanding achievement and looks forward to supporting his continued success as he expands Bonnetty Law, PLLC and makes a meaningful difference in the Pittsburgh region.
