What our clients say
Attorney Anthony Werrett supported me, stood by me, was honest with me, and fought for me in court. He is very real with you as a client. Sometimes it's not what you want to hear, but it's always the truth.
Ruesch and Reeve did an excellent job representing the company I work for in an extremely complex property rights dispute in Iron County that encompassed over 12 years of litigation.
If you're looking for a bulldog in the courtroom, someone who will fight for you but still holds firmly to the law and his principles, Anthony Werrett is that attorney.
