Guy Haskell

Guy did a great job through the whole process in making sure that I knew everything about the case as soon as he knew it. He is very knowledgable and wants to help you out as much as possible. His relationship with the judges and prosecutors helped tremendously with my case. Contacting the prosecutor... personally to try and work out an agreement for my situation. All together I would recommend Guy to anyone who needs an attorney who can get the job done in and out of the court room.

Helped me out a lot!

Guy, got two of my three charges dismissed, and got my license back for me. He got it back even earlier than was expected. He knows most of the local prosecutors and judges. Which is a good thing because more often than not they will treat you with no special consideration, if they have no reason to.... I would recommend him to anyone in need of legal advice or help.

Local Marijuana Charges

Guy represented my son for marijuana related charges and did an outstanding job. He pursued for us an effective strategy under changing circumstances and kept issues to a solitary focus during the process. He immediately recommended drug and alcohol treatment that was not only highly respected by... the court but also was very successful in correcting my son's problems. Guy is personal, professional, and has an excellent rapport with his clients and the court. We are very grateful for his excellent efforts and the results.

The Guy to go to!

He is very prompt at returning calls/emails and is very informative on how everything works and can explain it very well in vernacular. He also has useful insight into the local prosecution team as well since he used to work with them. Overall, he is very friendly, responsive, and knowledgeable. This... is the Guy you're looking for!

Excellent help and very understanding

Recently I was looking for legal help with an old case. After a fair amount of research I connetced with Guy. Choosing him was the best decision I could have made. He is very knowledgable, and very personable, which is great when you need it. I have already recommended him to others since then. Go wi...th Guy, he is the best!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
