Very professional

Jason represented me at a hearing in front of the Firearm License Review Board. I cannot say enough about his knowledge of the process and how well he prepared me for the hearing.

The attorney you want on your side for Massachusetts Firearms issues

When I was searching for assistance applying for a non-resident temporary license to carry in Massachusetts the combination of Mr. Guida's public service and private practice stood out to me. In the end he helped me navigate the complicated Massachusetts process and obtain exactly the license I saug...ht. I will definitely seek his services in any related future matters.

The ONLY choice for a firearms attorney in MA.

Jason Guida helped me through the convoluted process of applying for a Licence to Carry Firearms in MA. His knowledge of the "ins and outs" of one of the most cumbersome and frustrating licensing systems in the country comes from his previous experience as the head of the Firearms Licensing Records ...Board. He was attentive and informative during the initial consult, and gave constant updates throughout the process. Spent much time on the phone answering my many questions, and responded to emails promptly. If you have an issue with any aspect of owning or using a firearm in MA, THIS is the man you want representing your side.

Attorney Jason Guida provides first rate counsel.

When my previous employer attempted to keep me from collecting unemployment benefits, Attorney Guida kept me informed throughout the appeals process. He artfully cited case law demonstrating that my former employer was in the wrong, and I was awarded all benefits retroactively. I can give Jason Guida... nothing but my highest recommendation.
