Professional, Knowledgeable and the guy you need to hire.

Atty. Guida reviewed my case, provided me all the legal information and guidance I needed and then produced a favorable result. He responds swiftly, is extremely knowledgeable. I would absolutely recommend Atty. Guida to anyone struggling with or has questions about the LTC process. His team should ...be your first call. Thanks Atty. Guida!

The best in his field !

I had an OUI conviction 1996 which in Massachusetts permanently disqualified from owning a firearm. In 2015 I sat before the Firearm Licensing Review Board (FLRB) and petitioned to have my right to posses a firearm restored. I possessed a clean record since my 1996 incident for which I take full resp...onsibility for. The FLRB ruled in my favor, finding that I was a suitable candidate. The town I live in then issued me a LTC. I felt so good knowing that after taking responsibility for my poor decisions as a much younger man and trying to learn from my mistakes and making good decisions, that after 20 years I was found suitable to have my 2nd amendment right restored. Well the story does not end there, in 2018 the Massachusetts Attorney General ruled that people who had their LTC issued through an FLRB ruling would no longer be recognized and that these people would no longer be able to posses a firearm or LTC. My reaction..... Noooooooooo !!!!! This cant be !!!!!! I had joined a range, purchased firearms and now I was going to be in violation of the law!!!! Attorney Jason Guida, using his extensive knowledge and expertise in the field of firearms laws was able to successfully litigate a major case in which the result meant that I would not be denied the opportunity to renew my LTC. I had been stressed out since 2018 for the day my LTC would expire and I would not be able to renew it. I did a lot of research, I can say with fair certainty that I do not think anyone without the expert knowledge that Attorney Guida posses would have been successful. I am extremely grateful for Attorney Guida and his former clients who forged the path for people in my situation to enjoy their 2nd amendment rights. Please trust me on this, if you have an issue involving a firearm license and need representation do not waste your time searching the internet. Call Attorney Guida and know that you have the best guy in the field representing you.
