A truly one-of-a-kind Attorney

Mr. Brandt provided excellent legal service! It was a difficult divorce but with Mr. Brandt’s guidance and legal expertise, my kids were able to stay with me in our family home and with the support needed to keep their lives as close to normal. His staff is courteous and kept me aware of each step al...ong the way. Something I truly appreciated during the time process.

Thank you

Just want to thank you for the terrific job on my grandson's case. Don't know what we would have done with out your help throughout this entire ordeal. I believe that without your help and legal advise he would have been sitting in prison instead of getting much needed help and second chance.

Mr. Brandt - A Life Saver.

I was falsely accused of a crime by an ex States Attorney, who's husband is a deputy, she she pulled all kinds of favors from PBSO and court officials. Its was highly political, and complex. Mr. Brandt blew them all out of the water, with a few polite objections. Opposing parties know they have ...a fight on their hands when Arthur shows up. The judge new he was too honest to me out, and to spare these public officials from looking as corrupt, as they were, the judge did the accusers a favor by tossing my case out, as they would have been would have been exposed, for the liars they are. 4 hearings, and only took 100 purposely placed words from Mr. Brandt to shut down all, around each corner. Mr. Brandt and The Letter of Law, is all you'll need to win the judge.

The best Lawyer for an adoption!!!

I was given the chance to adopt my son from a woman who was going to prison for a very long time. I had no idea who to contact or what lawyers even did family adoption. So I looked on the Internet and prayed for guidance. I asked an adoption question and it was answered promptly by Mr Arthur. It was ...Dec 22nd, when we spoke on the phone. He wanted to start immediately and asked me to meet with him on the 24th. Wow!!! The day before Christmas! So we met and he started immediately in the case. He visited the birth mother in jail and quickly had her sign paper work. Needless to say everything was done well before my son was born!!! 3 days ago he was officially my son. It was our last court date and Arthur was by my side. He even asked the judge if I could have a picture of him for my baby book. I also want to say that his paralegal was outstanding!!!! Stephanie Frazier worked just as hard and always kept in contact with me and answered any question I had. I thank God for leading me to this firm (Gufford and Brandt) and the wisdom to know this was the right lawyer. Thank from the bottom of my heart Mr Brandt and Ms Frazier!! Spider and JT
