Anthony Bussa literally saved my life

Anthony Bussa knows his stuff. He looked at my case, saw the truth and listened to reason. When others were saying I would have no choice but to take a plea deal and lose my kids, Tony dug deep into the facts to prove my innocence and the state had no choice but to drop all charges.

Amazing

Anthony was in the details and knew what he was doing. I would have beem thrown to the lions if it weren't for him. He resolved my case with ease and confidence and took a whole lot of stress off my shoulders... Hes super cool, nonjudgmental, and down to earth... He actually cares and takes pride in... what he does and does it well... If you get into a pickle...call him and he'll stick up for you and your rights... Thank you so much ... I couldnt have asked for a better experience in this stressful time.. I respect and appreciate all you do!!!

He’s the best of the best

In my opinion it is the best of the best. he always defends his clients as if they were part of his family and never loses a case.

Anthony Bussa is the lawyer you need to have on your side

I was forced to hire an attorney because of an HRO violation. I researched and looked over a half dozen attorneys and somehow found Anthony Bussa. I couldn't be any more grateful that I did. The outcome of this case doesn't matter. What does matter is this: Tony is very passionate about his work and... about getting the best possible outcome for you. It always felt as though Tony fought tooth and nail for me every step of this whole judicial process. He was always in my corner and he is always at the top of his game. If there's a better Attorney out there outside of a sitcom or a movie, I haven't met them, and I doubt anyone who has consulted/hired/heard about Anthony Bussa has either.
