Direct Communication; Outstanding Representation.

In 2019 we moved to Massachusetts from a state where the laws are relatively firearms-friendly, easy to locate, and reasonably understandable. My initial exploration showed Massachusetts gun laws to be quite different - much more complicated, harder to locate, and highly variable from one locale to t...he next. Accordingly I sought out a referral to a knowledgeable firearms attorney. I could not have been better directed or more fortunate to have chosen Attorney Jason Guida. Mr. Guida was extremely professional, communicated in a responsive and straightforward manner and was clearly the authoritative source on firearms licensing matters in Massachusetts. I wanted to be sure that I was approaching the entire process of licensing, transporting and storing my firearms properly and avoiding the pitfalls of pursuing the matter on my own. If you want to know that you are on solid legal footing and taking all of the appropriate actions, you need to engage the services of Jason A. Guida. I recommend him and his legal services without reservation!

Call Attorney Guida if you need legal help

Attorney Guida gave me great legal advice, was responsive to my questions and concerns, and generally cared about me and the issues I was confronting. He knows the law thoroughly and let me know what all my options were so I could make a decision that was best for me. I would recommend him to anyone ...who needs someone to fight for them.

LTC Denial

After my car was broken into and a handgun stolen, my local Police Chief suspended my LTC. I asked around for a good attorney in this field and Mr.Guida's name came up a few times. I called Jason the same evening that I found out about my suspension and left a voice mail. That same evening he call...ed me back, answered my questions, presented a few scenarios on how I could proceed, I made the decision to fight for my rights. Jason was very informative and offered me his professional opinions regarding how to proceed at every step of the process. After almost a year of countless courtroom appearances, Jason was able to get my LTC reinstated. I would highly recommend his services to anyone in a similar situation.

Excellent Attorney

I have found Jason to be very responsive with all of my questions and extremely knowledgeable in the area of Firearm law. Jason knows not only what is required for a case based upon the obvious, but he also knows the intricacies of what is not common knowledge to make a case successful.
