This review is from a person who hired this attorney.
| Hired 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 bankruptcy 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!

Guy Conti - Exceeded My Expectations
I hired Guy Conti to handle my Bankruptcy. I was unemployed for over a year and a half when guy was recommended to me to explore the option of bankruptcy. Prior to getting to the point of bankruptcy there is already a tremendous amount of daily stress, worry, embarrassment, and shame, but Guy immediately made me feel at ease. Guy is very knowledgeable and was thorough in detailing the entire process. Guy’s knowledge and ability to articulate everything so clearly, combined with his positive friendly demeanor definitely added a level of comfort. I am saying this with 100% honestly, I left Guy’s office completely trusting him and feeling relieved with a positive outlook for the first time in a long time. During the bankruptcy process - Guy maintained everything I said above throughout the process. He kept me informed, answered any and all of my questions, and always responded promptly. Guy was already exceeding my expectations, but went above and beyond by assisting and resolving something that ended up not being related to my bankruptcy. This helped me out tremendously, as I know the outcome would not have been the same if he hadn't assisted. I can’t thank Guy enough for all of his help and will definitely recommend him to anyone seeking legal assistance. Thank you again Guy!!

Terrific lawyer, Great Expertise
Mr. Conti helped me with my Social Security disability hearing. My initial application was without Mr. Conti's help and was denied. He knew exactly what needed to be done in order to present the best and most complete case for the hearing. He is efficient, conscientious, never made me wait and showed empathy for my problems. With Mr. Conti's help I won my case and I am now on disability. Also, in 2009 Mr. Conti was our lawyer for a bankruptcy which was also successfully concluded. I strongly recommend Mr. Conti as a lawyer.

Guy Conti Gets My Highest Recommendation!
To say the least, when hard financial times hit, things can become very stressful. Guy Conti was very knowledgeable and very professional, and even after my initial phone contact with Guy, much of the stress and worries were immediately alleviated. This was also true for the remainder of the process. Guy explained all aspects completely, and I'm am sure that all the decisions I made throughout the process ultimately ended up being in my best interest, 100%! There is no way I could have done this on my own. Guy Conti patiently and clearly helped me work through all my options, and with his assistance, I was able to get the best solution for me. It is without hesitation that I give Guy my highest recommendation.

Outstanding Lawyer
I went to see guy because I was being sued for a debt I absolutely could not pay. Trying to deal with the court system myself was a nightmare. He clarified the pros and cons of each of my options. I decided to opt for bankruptcy. He took the time to explain every step of the legal proceedings, eliminating the previous fear brought on by the arrival of each document from the court or the plaintiff. I have never liked or trusted lawyers, but Guy disproved all my prejudices. He was courteous, kind, professional, and always took care to make sure I understood exactly what was happening each step of the way. He was also thorough and meticulous. Thanks to Guy, I don't wake up with a sick knot in my stomach each day. I have recommended him to my family members and friends. Guy is not only a great lawyer, he's something even rarer...a good person. I will never use another lawyer.

Expert Legal Advice: Professional,Compassionate: and Successful
This was the first time I have ever filed bankruptcy and I was nervous and apprehensive about the whole process. Mr. Conti was very professional, explained to me the whole process and after that first meeting, allayed my fears and left me feeling secure and non-threatened. I was also feeling very ashamed but he made me feel that sometimes life happens and we find ourselves in situations that when dealt with, have the ability to teach us a life lesson. Throughout the whole 7 months, Mr. Conti kept me informed of payment and action due dates. He also responded to email questions from me within 24 hours. He helped me assemble my documentation, met with me on as needed basis,and provided support throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend him. He is succinct, to the point and very clear in his explanations and expectations. I would seek his legal counsel, again, if needed, for all legal questions.

Guy Conti is a Bankruptcy expert worth talking to..
Guy Conti recently helped me file Chapter 13 Bankruptcy. Guy is easy to work with and very efficient. He puts a lot of thought into creating the best outcome for his client. I had been struggling with the mortgage company that was in the process of foreclosing on my property. Guy was able to help me keep my home and produced a very favorable payoff amount for me. He admitted that my case was quite complicated but seemed to relish the challenge. I would highly recommend Guy Conti to anyone contemplating bankruptcy. Even if you have not made the decision to file for bankruptcy, consulting with Guy will give you a very good understanding of your options and how the process works. He will not encourage you to file unless he sees it as the best option for you. A grateful Ann Arbor homeowner

Excellent Legal Service
Accessible, knowledgeable and easy to talk to. Understood our needs and explained the details in "Lehman's terms" for us. Mr. Conti was able to take a stressful and difficult financial situation and make it manageable.

My GuyConti
I met Mr Conti through a business networking group where every member in the group gets a few moments to talk about what they do and how they do it. Quite often a member will expain what they did for a customer or how they handled particular issues (no specific names etc. to maintain privacy). After listening to Guy and hearing others in the group give testimonials as to how they were helped/advised by him, I knew that I could trust him and could count on him to do the very best he could for me in my situation. I had an issue that needed to be dealt with and to be honest I was a bit scared and concerned about it. Well, Guy sat with me for awhile and explained the procedures/options to me in a way that I could understand and he made me feel quite a bit better about the whole thing. Even though the issue was not an easy one for me and I had hoped to avoid going through it, working with Guy made it so much easier to deal with. I was extremely pleased and thankful to have worked with him on my situation.

An Excellent Attorney
I recently had to file for bankruptcy due to a lawsuit that resulted from a home foreclosure. I was worried about the process and wasn't sure how to work things out. I met with Guy for a consultation and he collected my personal information and told me about the options available to me given the situation. He was very knowledgeable and professional with me and my case. Whenever I had questions I would send him an email and he always responded within a couple hours. For the duration of my case Guy always kept me informed as to what would happen and he gave very accurate time frames. I thought the entire process was going to be a nightmare but Guy made everything seem much more manageable and I felt confident that he would take care of me to the best of his abilities. I will gladly come to Guy in the future for legal advice and I will recommend him to everyone I know in need of legal services.

The best attorney I've ever worked with!
It was a pleasure working with Mr. Guy Conti. He helped me and my parents file for bankruptcy. My parents had numerous debt and financial problems to the point where the creditors were garnishing their wages, bank accounts, and seizing personal property. When the collection agency took my father's personal vehicle which he owned free and clear, that's when we decided to contact Mr. Conti. Due to my parents language limitations, I was the communication window between my parents and Mr. Conti. Mr. Conti was very prompt in responding and actually accomodated our request to meet on a Saturday of the same week since I would be travelling from Ohio and my parents live in Michigan. He worked swiftly and stopped the auction of my fathers vehicle and later helped us regain possesion of the vehicle. Mr. Conti kept us informed through the entire process and I was very surprised at how quick he responded to our inquiries (within the same day). I highly recommend Mr. Conti to anyone who is having financial problems and are considering bankruptcy. As I mentioned in the subject, he is the best attorney I've ever worked with and you will not be disappointed.

Chapter 13 bankruptcy Attorney | 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."

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."
