Mr. Tutera is an exceptional attorney. His knowledge and courtroom presence are truly impressive. He kept me informed throughout the process and successfully resolved me and my families cases. I was incredibly greatful for his guidance and support during a difficult time. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking legal representation.

Ryan is an excellent attorney! I have used him a few times and if need be I will use again and again. Very knowledgeable, pays attention to detail, respectable, and has a firm handshake! He is the man you want beside you in any situation.

After much searching on the internet for a good attorney, we kept coming back to to Ryan Tuterra. I called him and left a message after hours and he called me back that same evening. He listened and gave some information and I booked an appointment with him. The moment I sat down to talk with him I knew he was passionate about his career in law and he knows the law and is good at what he does. From the beginning he was confident that what I was being charged with should have been nothing more then a civil case. He fought the first round at the magistrate level however it failed and had to go to common court. Even after the magistrate he was still adamant that this was nothing more then a civil case and he stands on the truth and evidence that proves just that. When Ryan Tuterra walks into a room he means business and will not back down when fighting for you. He knows the law and he also knows bad law enforcement when see it. He was a former DA and he knows both sides and that is what you want when you are being wrongfully charged. He stood for me and he got the job done. Ryan was a rockstar in my eyes. No one ever wants to have to search for a skilled attorney but if you need to, look no further you have found one of the best with Ryan.

Living in a small town and never having to have an attorney one thing I did know was the lawyers in this and surroundings areas work together and with law instead of working for their client .I needed someone that knew the law, determined to prove false allegations and to regain my dignity back, that he did! His presence alone when he walks into a room shows that he is respected and ready to go to war for his clients. He will not accept anything except fairness. Very Professional and knows the law No lawyer can tell you they will win the case but if he has the facts and laws that back up the facts, rest assured he's confident in his abilities to prove someone's innocence. I highly recommend Ryan, he fights for you.

Ryan Tutera has amazing people skills. He was able to reduce all of my charges and even had some thrown out all together. He truly cares about his clients and works hard for them. He exceeded every expectation I had in what a lawyer could do for me. I am eternally grateful for his services.

Ryan was very attentive, thorough, and professional. I felt confident proceeding with him once we met. And have had favorable outcomes in all matters he was handling. Hoping I never need a lawyer again, but if I do I will certainly hire Ryan...

I had called on RYAN TUTERA to represent me. Needing a criminal defense attorney was something I had never expected to have to need in my life. With a lot to lose, I knew that I had to search for a person who is incredibly dedicated, passionate, intelligent and didn't wasn't trying to impress so I would write a large retainer check. Unlike the other people who I spoke to, RYAN treated me with the same respect you would imagine you would give your very best friend; which at a time when you are feeling low about yourself was invaluable. Ryan believed in me and provided the guidance inside and outside of legal conversations. He managed the process and especially the courtroom like a conductor of an orchestra. He was always fair, honest and truthful with me and always discussed both the good and potential bad outcomes. I believed in Ryan and because of this, was exonerated of the claims set against me. Ryan managed the process with ease using his absolute unappalled professionalism and received incredible results in the courtroom. Ryan is the only person, I would ever recommend to anybody. He is not going to try and impress you with smoking mirrors, a flashy shiny suit and talking you into a plea deal while he collects your money. He brings you outstanding effort, smarts and a commanding knowledge of the legal process, you and your opposing counsel which is unprecedented. Ryan, I owe you everything - THANK YOU!

My husband, had a case to where I needed to find someone to help us. I found Ryan and he’s a professional lawyer and very intelligent. Ryan took his time and gave me his all. If you have a loved one or know someone who is in need of a great legal minded lawyer, I would highly recommend Ryan. He is hardworking and determined. I would say Ryan is he best in Pittsburgh guaranteed.

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!!!

If your future is in jeopardy, your scared and afraid of the unknown. I know just how you feel. I've been there, right where you are. And shopping for attorneys is nothing like any other experience. Your future literally depends on hiring the right attorney. Ryan is respected, he has knowledge of the defense and prosecuting side of the court. I can't say enough how much Ryan has helped my family. He is truly one of a kind. He sleeps, eats and breathes the law. I have nothing but respect and appreciation for this man.

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 busy 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.

Ryan was kind enough to take my case recently for a simple assault charge that I was falsely accused of. Not only did he handle it with a level of professionalism I have never seen but he was kind hearted and genuinely concerned of my situation. This man exudes confidence and charisma. And it paid off in the courtroom. He wiped the floor with the Accuser and made the judge and district attorney realize that I was in fact innocent. I would give Ryan a hundred Stars if I could. You should have no qualms of whether or not to hire Ryan as your defense attorney. If you want the job done right he is your man. Thanks again Ryan.

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 in 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.

Son was accused lead guilty of sexual crimes, after getting rid of public defender who wanted him to plead guilty although he was innocent. Mr. Tutera listened to him took his case and after a two day trial he fought and helped prove his innocence with a NOT GUILTY verdict. I think he is a great lawyer. Also a nice guy.

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!!

As an international customer who had legal problem in the United States. I have been through two lawyers before I met Ryan. The two lawyers before Ryan, handled my case miserably and failed to resolve my legal problem. Luckily, we received a recommendation of Ryan from my acquaintance. Fortunately, the problem that have been unsolvable, was resolved with ease by Ryan. Now, I walked away from that situation freely and my record is finally CLEAN. I thank you, Ryan, that you handled my case professionally, always keep contact with me, and always been there for me. Lastly, my family and I would like to thank you again, Ryan! We could not ask for a better lawyer, friend, and brother.

Ryan is the best lawyer you'll come across in the city of Pittsburgh. He's handled multiple cases I've had over the past years. He fights hard, and keeps you up to date on everything. He cares about his clients giving, them the upmost respect, no matter what their situation may have been. He honestly has saved my life! I'd recommend him to any one who needs defense.

Ryan defended me in a highly political theft case. Ryan is a professional, hard working and compassionate with his clients. He is very knowledgeable of the laws and how the system works. I recommend hiring Ryan as an attorney for all of your defense needs.

Ryan Tutera is an excellent attorney. My husband and I have both utilized Ryan for several criminal cases both past and present. My husband had over a dozen cases. Throughout the duration of these many cases, Ryan was able to keep my husbands record clean, while maintaining exceptional professionalism and honesty. We have dealt with several attorneys in the past and Ryan is by far the best "well rounded" attorney I have seen. He is not only excellent at negotiating deals with the prosecution, he is also extremely reliable, courteous, and genuinely cares about his clients. When you hire Mr. Tutera you are getting his services anytime you need them. He is punctual at returning phone calls, and will do anything in is power to keep his clients out of harms way. In my opinion he gets an A+ rating and anybody who is looking for an excellent defense to criminal issues should retain Ryan Tutera.

Ryan is by far the best professional lawyer that I have ever worked with. His expertise is strong and far surpasses any that I've ever encountered. I would highly recommend him on any case. He's also help in an uncontested divorce in the past and did a great job.

Me and my family hired Mr. Tutera to represent my grandson. Mr. Tutera was a bleblessing from God to say the least. The process was a long haul, but he remained right with me and my family every step and the way. His sincerity was evident and he was honest every step of the way. The trust we grew to have for this young man was something that came in knowing he was a believer of God and made that known. He was such a blessing to my family and not only was determined but successful in making things work out on my grandson behalf. I was forever be thankful and grateful for Mr. Tutera. I would certainly recommend him every time. Honesty and integrity go a long way. That is truly what Mr. Tutera is. Thank You Jesus.
