Firm Information
Overview
I am Ryan M. Tutera, a determined attorney with over 15 years of legal experience, heading The Law Office of Ryan M. Tutera in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. I provide comprehensive criminal defense representation throughout Westmoreland County, Greensburg, Latrobe and the Monessen area. My background as a former Allegheny County assistant district attorney gives me unique insight into how prosecutors build their cases.
I understand that criminal convictions can follow you for life. When you're facing charges, I carefully assess the prosecution's case and create detailed strategies to defend your rights. Whether you're dealing with murder allegations, extortion charges or wire fraud inquiries, I explain how the law applies to your situation and help determine your best legal options.
My courtroom abilities allow me to present compelling arguments while highlighting weaknesses in the prosecution's case. I'm also skilled at negotiations, often securing reductions in charges and sentences without going to trial. Through proven methods, I've achieved favorable outcomes in hundreds of cases. I recognize how stressful criminal allegations can be and keep clients informed throughout the legal process. My practice covers both state and federal courts.
I provide thorough representation for internet crimes and white collar offenses that cross state lines; and federal crimes, which typically involve complex cases with mandatory minimum penalties. For DUI/DWI cases, I carefully examine whether evidence was accurately collected or properly obtained. In homicide cases, where consequences are most severe, I exhaust every legal option in your defense.
When handling drug crime charges, I challenge evidence that was unlawfully seized and counter the government's aggressive tactics. Having tried hundreds of jury and nonjury cases from both prosecution and defense perspectives, I've earned respect from clients, judges and colleagues alike. I've also represented clients in cases receiving local, statewide and national attention. To discuss your case, please contact me to schedule a consultation.
