Nothing less than OUTSTANDING!!!!!

My family was in need of a criminal lawyer for a very serious case that gained unwanted media attention, immediately after just calling Ryan to explain the situation, my family decided on hiring him right on the spot, his compassion, attention and absolute knowledge and confidence in the law was a no...-brainer for us; not to mention that within hours of just contacting him, he was already visiting our family member at the county jail which meant the world to us!! Fast forward...., Ryan handled this very complicated case with authority and great professionalism (he’s no push-over ), he made us feel well represented and my family member had an extremely favorable outcome to the case. Forget 5 stars.... RYAN YOU’RE 1000!!!!! God Bless you and our family will forever be grateful to you!!!

An Excellent Lawyer, Empathetic, a True Professional

Luckily for me, Ryan took my case and helped me thru a very strange and trying time. It was quite obvious to me the first time we met that he had the skills and knowledge of the judicial system that I needed. Not one of the "TV Attorneys" that you see advertising himself all the time, Ryan is too b...usy working for his clients and navigating the court system, always with one thing in mind: obtaining the best result for the person he is representing. His hard work and vast knowledge of the Allegheny County Court system paid of in the end, with the absolute best result I could have hoped for -- better than he himself had prepared me for heading into the final steps of my case. Ryan is diligent and savvy, he provides an aggressive and effective criminal defense -- as those who have been represented by him will attest. He is empathetic, and a good listener. He talks straight, doesn't mince words or lead a person to unrealistic expectations. He's honest and hard-working, always with the best interest for his clients in mind. Best of all, he's a genuinely nice guy. If there were 6 stars here I'd give him all six! I hope that I don't need his services going forward, but if I ever needed a criminal attorney again, I'd definitely hire Ryan.

He is the best by far. You have found your lawyer if you are reading this

Ryan took over my case from another lawyer that had really messed it up very badly. He was able to defend me in a criminal case in a much smaller town than Pittsburgh and overcome all the issues that the previous lawyer caused and the bias of the court system in my area. He successfully defended me i...n a very hard case and one that was messed up by the pervious lawyer making it even that much harder. I would recommend him to all my friends and family and anyone else who needed legal assistance. I have already recommended him to friends and family. RYAN M TUTERA was a life saver. If you find this review then you need to hire him. He will inform you of all your rights. Give you the information straight. Listen to you and your wants and explain any reason why he would be against it, but he would support you in your decisions also. As in my case where I wanted to take the stand in my defense he told me that he never liked to do that, but if that is what I wanted he was willing to work with me to prepare me for the stand. He did just that and when I took the stand I was well prepared and even over prepared in my case for the cross examination. I can't say enough about him and how he handled my case in preparations and in court.

Amazing Amazing Amazing

Mr Tutera is a wonderful lawyer. In 2016, i had some traffic infractions that snowballed into a mess that resulted in needing to consult a lawyer. I came across and hired Mr Tutera. He listened, showed compassion and handled my cases with extreme professionalism! I would strongly encourage anyone to ...hire him. He is the cream of the crop!!

Simply the BEST!

I found myself in legal trouble. Mr. Tutera was informative, immaculate, and caring. I cannot imagine a superior, more professional, sincere lawyer. The man is practically a superhero! I will forever recommend him to anyone in need of legal advice or representation. He’s the highest quality!
