The very best

Mr. Peruto recently defended my stepson in a complicated and serious case. His knowledge and expertise led to a good outcome. He is definitely the best defense attorney in the area.

Life Saver

I previously contacted an attorney regarding my case and took his advice. To my surprise, I basically agreed to being sentenced to a charge that I wasn’t guilty of. A few weeks before my court date, my girlfriend told me to fire my attorney and hire Charles. I’m so glad I did. I was looking at jail t...ime any where from 9-16 months and now I’m a free man. No words can express how grateful I am to have Charles in my corner. He doesn’t back down and makes sure he gets you the best outcome.

The Best in PHL

Chuck Peruto has represented me in 3 cases. I found him to be experienced, responsive, extremely knowledgable and honest. While working with Chuck, I felt as though my situation was in trustworthy hands, and he did not steer me wrong. I would highly recommend Chuck to anyone seeking legal represen...tation that is fair, honest and will keep your best interest and unique needs at the forefront. Should the situation arise, I would not hesitate to seek representation from Chuck Peruto again.

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.
