Rest assured Tuorto Law is on your side

If are in need of a attorney in the Asheville area look no further,Anthony Tuorto is a brilliant lawyer. I was arrested on a serious felony charge, from my first meeting with Mr.T i felt that he was passionate about my defense. I was kept well informed of every aspect of my case and the legal procedu...re, He's professional, knows the law inside and out and is well respected by his peers, he truly puts time and effort into getting you the best possible outcome in your case. I will be forever grateful for Mr. Tuorto and staff for all they did for me

Exemplary

Planned a strategic approach, accurately predicted results, case dismissed with good cause; in the end (a year-long battle), even recommended for dismissal by the DA. Tuorto is clearly respected, he dominates the room when he enters, and radiates a calm confidence in both poise & speech. Shows genuin...e concern for the client, proper informative support, prompt & courteous service across the board. Very professional in all aspects. Tuorto truly knows the system from the inside out (see his work history & other reviews).

Exceptional, 10/10

Attorney Anthoney exceeded my expectations as a lawyer. In fact, he managed to get all of my charges dismissed at court. I could not be more happier with the outcome. He is very personable and makes sure all your concerns and questions are addressed. He made this process go as smoothly as possible, a...nd I was assured he would do a job well done. His assistant, Madelyn, is extremely helpful, caring, and friendly. She was always on top of things and was very organized. I cannot thank Turoto Law enough. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

Good guy, great results

Anthony is one of the best attorneys I've ever had and I've had quite a few. I had multiple charges from 3 different incidents including 1 felony, 1 misdemeanor, and 4 misdemeanors. All were dismissed except 1 minor misdemeanor. This was amazing considering I already have a record. Not only was he gr...eat at his job but he was also the most pleasant lawyer I've ever had. Truly passionate and caring about my situation. Most lawyers I've had are condescending and smug but Anthony was a lawyer I actually looked forward to taking to. He is definitely my go to guy and God forbid I get into anymore legal trouble he will be the one taking care of it.

Best thing I ever did was hire Mr. Tuorto

This is by far the best legal experience I have ever had and with exactly the results I was hoping for. Mr. Tuorto handled my case professionally and I didn't even have to make a court appearance. While I was busy with my day job he was busy getting tickets thrown out on my behalf. If a police offic...er makes assumptions without proof and hands you a bunch of tickets don't stand for it! Lawyer up! Professional, timely, reliable contact, informative meetings and phone calls, great follow up.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
