About Linda Varrenti Hernandez

Linda Varrenti Hernandez is Of Counsel for Dickie, McCamey & Chilcote, P.C. She concentrates her practice in the area of school defense including Due Process hearings and federal litigation. In addition, she also handles matters with a particular emphasis in insurance defense.

Ms. Hernandez participated in the inaugural year-long Lawyers on Loan program sponsored in conjunction with the Pittsburgh Pro Bono Partnership. This is a pro bono initiative whereby an experienced attorney is “on loan” to Neighborhood Legal Services Association, while still a member of the law firm. This service provides needed support to an agency that has experienced significant budget cuts and yet continually serves the needs of the economically deprived in our community. She spent a year being trained by the Women and Girls Foundation for their Catapult program and is able to counsel other women in the art of negotiation.
