Hired Attorney Mr. Guy W. Bluff

Working with Guy and his support team, for my 2nd time now, has been a great experience. They handled a highly complex deed matter related to a home purchase with ease, and with minimal time and effort needed on my part. Currently, Guy is representing my family in a legal matter, winning recently an important pre trial motion. We feel very blessed to have Guy in our corner!!

Hired Attorney Mr. Guy W. Bluff

I have been working with Mr. Bluff for 3 years, as he is in-house counsel for our company, and recently utilized his services on a personal matter. He defended me against a frivolous million-dollar case filed by a vicious, unethical attorney. Guy was relentless and tenacious in defending me and my professional reputation. Guy was able to get the case against me dismissed in two months!

Consulted Attorney Mr. Guy W. Bluff

Guy drafted an absolutely beautiful lease agreement for my townhouse. I had a handful of odd requests and he was able to work them in without making it sound like I was making odd requests! He drafts beautiful contracts.

Hired Attorney Mr. Guy W. Bluff

This attorney is very experienced, he met our deadlines, was prepared, and strongly pursued our interests. And he knows how to cut to the chase and effectively apply the many legal rules to common sense application and understanding, so the content of the message is relatable to both us (his client), as well as the court. If you need to pursue legal remedies in construction, I would recommend Guy Bluff and his team.

Hired Attorney Mr. Guy W. Bluff

Guy W. Bluff has been our attorney since 2014, and has been incredibly supportive in the repeated & relentless attacks from our vexious litigant of a neighbor. We became a target after buying a cabin next to him. We have been put through hell and Guy has always stood right beside us. Sometimes in front of us. He has stayed the course, and truly went above & beyond, when others might have bailed. In this neverending barrage by a determined maniac, Guy has continued to believe in us, support us, and had even stepped up to represent our elderly, widowed seller when she was also sued (again) by our neighbor (a man we have never met). I really don't know what we would have done without him and his office staff. We probably would have lost everything... NO. We WOULD have lost everything! Guy has been more than our attorney - he has been our guide, our protector, and has often been our cheerleader, bolstering us up through some pretty dark times. Thank Heavens that we had found Guy W. Bluff!
