Bruce Howard Guttman

My firm had begun to represent a friend in a matrimonial action the quickly went from easy to extremely difficult and beyond my legal expertise. Guttman & Guttman came to me highly recommended and they have quickly, efficiently, and economically handled this case until its conclusion. This firm ach...ieved far better results for my former client than I could have and I am grateful to have found them and that my client is happy with the results. If any of your family members needs the best representation in a matrimonial action, don't hesitate to call Guttman & Guttman.

When I became in needed of a lawyer, I did my homework, and Bruce came highly recommended. Bruce proved to be the right choice for me,not only is he a highly skilled litigator, and negotiator, he is also a kind, caring, compassionate person. He loves and has a real pasion for what he does.Bruce worke...d tirelessly on my behalf and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome of my case. I am not the easiest person to please but Bruce proved to be exceptional at what he does and I HIGHLY recommend him to anyone in need of legal services. He’s the best!

Deciding that a divorce is inevitable is difficult. Having caring understanding attorneys is imperative. From the day I walked into Guttman & Guttman I felt comfortable and confident that I had a team that would help me through this process. The day I met him Bruce gave me his personal cell phone ...number and said call anytime, day or night. Every time I called Bruce answered, discussed my concern and made sure I felt comfortable with our discussion before ending the call Once I had a question on a holiday and I was calling the office late at night just to leave a message and Bruce answered. I was surprised but happy. Robin and Bruce are experienced, know what they are doing and have excellent rapport with many other divorce attorneys which I believe helps the process move smoothly. I highly recommend them and am very happy they were able to settle my divorce expeditiously and to my satisfaction. They really care d about me and my family.

During a very difficult divorce process, Bruce was always available to answer my questions, and concerns. Extremely knowledgeable, professional, and caring. His knowledge, and his Witt was reassuring at a time that was very uncertain for me. He was able to advocate for me, and obtain the results I de...sperately needed. He was very honest with me from day one, and for all these reasons I would recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance. Thank you Bruce!!!!

Bruce Guttman is a partner in a small husband and wife law firm. My expierience with him is difficult to summarize, but the short version is that he was my divorce attorney for three years. After three years time and 80K spent, I am not one step closer to being divorced than I was when I first retain...ed him. Our first day in court he had to reply to the judge to give my name and other basic preliminary information. He got my name, income and place of business totally incorrect as he mixed me up with another client. Shame on me for not realizing on that first day that it was a precursor for the next three years. I have a pattern of incidents where Bruce Guttman has shown that his sole objective is billable hours and not results. Yet when he talks about his courtroom behavior he describes himself as a tiger. It's baseless and laughable. Every setback and negative result is seen by him as nothing more than a "flaw in the system". I found most revolting a consistent pattern of making confident predictions that were each and every time not inaccurate, but the polar opposite of what truly happened. Every meeting where we prepped for the next round of court he would bait me by telling me what good thing was going to happen in court next but that I first had to get my balance down to zero, which I did. And every court appearance resulted in a 2-3 month adjournment where nothing progressed, except emptying my bank account further. If you challenge his tactics, he will schmooze and charm, but it is the equivalent of getting a back rub while someone is stabbing you in the back. My comments are not spiteful, but spoken as someone who was truly scammed by an incompetent and negligible attorney. My distatse for his behavior is not due to his failure to win my divorce, because it wasnt about winning it, it was about ending it, and he did neither. Yet today as he was telling me that my balance is too high for him to continue representing me, he actually spoke with confidence as he told me "i wouldnt have done one thing differrently". During several conversations he explained to me that the high cost that he charges is for his representation, not for his results. So if you want results, avoid this law firm.
