We Have The Experience Needed For Your Case

Attorney Anthony Bittner spent over seven years as an assistant district attorney in Allegheny County before co-founding Joyce & Bittner in 1989. The investigation and prosecution of public officials on charges of corruption, bribery or extortion, as well as complicated cases involving embezzlement, frauds and computer-related crimes, formed a significant component of his practice as a prosecutor.
