What Petrelli Previtera, LLC does

Petrelli Previtera, LLC is a privately held US law firm specializing in divorce and family law, headquartered at 1845 Walnut Street in Philadelphia, PA. Founded in 2017 and led by partners Thomas J. Petrelli, Jr. and Melinda M. Previtera, the firm delivers legal representation and counsel across divorce (contested, uncontested, military, and high-asset), child custody, adoption, estate planning, spousal support, prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, property division, and protection from abuse orders. It serves individuals, families, business owners and high-net-worth clients, military service members, and couples planning for asset protection, primarily in the Mid-Atlantic and select Sun Belt markets.

The firm operates through a network of 15 physical office locations across seven jurisdictions — Pennsylvania (7 offices), New Jersey (3), Maryland (3), Colorado (2), and single offices in Georgia, Washington DC, and North Carolina — supplemented by phone and video consultations routed through a central intake line. Its underlying technology stack consists of legal practice management software, a digital client intake and online scheduling platform, and video consultation infrastructure. The firm has also built a portfolio of sub-branded digital properties — including PrenupDoneRight.com, PostnupDoneRight.com, DivorceDoneRight.ai, EstateDoneRight.ai, LawyeringForLove.com, and LifeMomentum.ai — that extend its reach beyond in-person representation.

Commercially, the firm operates on a professional services revenue model, generating revenue from billable legal fees paid on a case-by-case or retainer basis. Client acquisition is driven primarily by organic digital channels — content marketing, local SEO landing pages, social media (Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram), and YouTube — supplemented by referrals and testimonials. The firm invests in a Certified Specialist Network of CPAs, pension evaluators, psychologists, divorce financial planners, real estate appraisers, and business evaluators to support complex matters. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; clients are quoted on a per-engagement basis after a confidential consultation. The firm has been recognized on the Inc. 5000 list, holds AV Preeminent and AVVO ratings, and has attorneys recognized by Super Lawyers and the National Trial Lawyers Top 100.

Emerging players

• LegalZoom: Tech-enabled legal services platform offering divorce, estate planning, and family law document preparation at lower price points. Not a direct competitor in contested family law matters but represents the disruption risk to the firm's commoditized service lines and the firm's own AI sub-brands are positioned against this category.
• Wealth.com: Estate planning technology platform serving attorneys and consumers. Comparable as a tech-enabled estate planning offering that competes with Petrelli Previtera's EstateDoneRight.ai sub-brand and traditional estate planning practice.
