Absolutely outstanding - highly proactive and responsive

Guy is, by far, the best attorney we've ever worked with. In the past 6 years, we've had a variety of issues whereby we needed an attorney. We had one who did an acceptable job, but we've had at least 5 others who were not good (not proactive, non responsive, lack of follow through, unable to under...stand our needs, put minimal thought into the situation, etc.). By contrast, Guy is the only attorney we've dealt with who seemed to fully engage with us - he took time to understand the full situation and our needs, he was highly responsive, very proactive both in action and strategy, had excellent experience, and did great research. We will use Guy for all of our future legal needs.

Poor Communication and No Follow Through

We contacted Guy 6 weeks ago to draft a simple legal document for us. He assured us that he would complete in two weeks. The document was meant to resolve a dispute with a contractor related to poor quality work. At this point, we have not heard from him in nearly two weeks and have called as well as... emailed to follow-up. His poor communication and total lack of follow-through has jeopardized the amicable agreement we had worked to negotiate with the contractor due to week after week of delay. We wish that he had been transparent about his availability and timeline so that we could have decided sooner to work with another attorney.

Simply - Outstanding !!!

I transferred my bankruptcy case from another attorney in the area whom made several mistakes in my case and I was treated me like a number not like a person. Guy Conti is NOT that kind of attorney. He is exceeding all my expectations. Guy is going above and beyond all measures of being a bankrup...tcy attorney. I am in admiration of his knowledge, attention to detail, and thinking beyond the case. He not only cares about your success in bankruptcy, he cares about you! I am so grateful to have found Guy through this most difficult time in my life. I can't thank him enough.

The Absolute Best!

After being contacted by the state regarding a legal situation that was totally beyond my control, I was in a panic. Thankfully I had Mr. Conti, who is knowledgeable, straight forward, and honest. He proceeded to handle my case with a level of empathy and expertise that made me feel confident that ...things would ultimately end well. During the entire process every member of the firm that I interacted with was friendly and very helpful. He was always diligent in providing me with updates every step of the way as well as being very prompt in answering any questions that I may have had. Mr. Conti and his team are my protectors and champions! I will always defer to them for any legal issues or concerns and will defiantly recommend them to others!

Chapter 13 bankruptcy lawyer | Jun 03

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"As a fellow attorney I can wholeheartedly endorse the careful, skilled, and client focused work that Guy does. I have worked with him as opposing counsel, on related matters, and most importantly in this challenging Michigan economy, on Bankruptcy matters. His approach to clients is always focused on their needs, and their best outcome, as determined in consultation with the client. He and his office take the extra steps to follow through on filings and successful outcomes in Bankruptcy, not just generate and file the paperwork. For the above reasons I have been referring the Short Sale and Foreclosure clients that I work with, and need a bankruptcy, or consultation as to their options, to his office. He carefully and honestly addresses their unique situation and guides them in the correct direction as to filing needs, time lines, and preservation of assets. Many times I've heard back from the people I referred to him about their favorable outcomes."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"Guy is exceptional at remembering law and facts and is a walking legal encyclopedia and journal, all in one. He is way ahead of the curve on legal issues and is able to present issues in a succinct manner. At this point, he is the most effective attorney I know as he is able to move forward quickly on many legal matters without having research delays. Due to his extensive knowledge, he has the ability to outgun other attorneys when a case is in a tight spot and he isn't deterred by the possibility of having to take a case on appeal. I endorse this lawyer's work."
