Joseph A. Bugni

Joe Bugni was the appointed lawyer for my very close friend Brian and he went above and beyond what most lawyers would do. He was very hands on with Brian and connected with him regularly. He also sent out texts to me to let me know what was going on with Brian every step of the way. If I had any que...stions regarding his case or his wellbeing I could easily reach out to Joe for answers. Even though Brian's case is resolved they still remain in contact. If it hadn't been for Joe I believe Brian's case would have gone quite differently. You can definitely tell that he cares about his clients.

There aren't enough good things my husband and I can say about Joe. During such a tumultuous time in our lives, his trusted counsel, his confidence, his tenaciousness, and most importantly his friendship were key to keeping us focused and grounded. After having consulted with several of Madison's... top notch defense lawyers, we knew to listen to our instincts and retain him. It wasn't the high regards that those other lawyers held him in, but rather the way he could put all our worries at ease and the instant connection we forged with him on a personal level. It was obvious to everyone from the beginning how passionate he was about our case and that he truly cared for the well being of our marriage/family even beyond the final sentencing. Thanks to Joe's hard work and making good on promises, a huge weight was lifted; we won with the best outcome and our family can now move on. There are no regrets in his representation and we are grateful to have gained a life long friend.

Mr. Bugni was an excellent choice. He did an exceptional job. Jo was there for my family and I day and night. He really cares about his clients. I could not have asked for a better representative. Everything went very well because of his expertise. Even after the case was closed Jo kept in contact to... make sure my family was doing well. I feel blessed to have found not only a great attorney but also a very good man to help me during a very low period in my life.

Mr Bugni is an amazing attorney. He did absolutely everything he said he would for for our family. Kept in contact with the family thru out the entire process letting us know step by step what was going on and even now after everything is resolved he continues to contact us just to make sure that o...ur family is doing well.

​No one in our family had ever been in trouble with the law before, but my son one day found himself faced with the sobering reality that he needed a lawyer. We couldn't afford to hire a private lawyer so my son was assigned public defender Joe Bugni. We weren't very confident with that in the begin...ning, but we soon realized that Joe was "all in" for my son and he never lost momentum. I have to admit though, after Joe was assigned, I spoke to a couple private attorneys in the area and they reassured me that my son was in good hands and was lucky to have Joe Bugni as his public defender because he's the best you can get. Unfortunately my son was forced to plead guilty due to his circumstances and was facing a long minimum prison sentence, if not worse, however Joe ultimately got the charges reduced resulting in a much lower sentence for him. The only thing we were disappointed about was that the court wouldn't release my son on bond, Joe tried but the court absolutely refused to change that. We had to put our faith in Joe to do the best possible for my son and to guide all of us through the frightening journey that we were all about to begin. He dug deep to get to know my son and our family, as well. He made us feel comfortable from the very beginning, and all along the way, and always kept us informed. He's an honest, forthright man who won't give you false hope. Joe puts his heart and soul into his cases and treats you as if you are his ONLY case. He understands how important family is and realizes you are all in this together. He is always available to answer our questions or concerns. Without hesitation he was there to hold us up and he was there for my son whenever he needed to talk or be comforted. Joe is intelligent and is genuinely a very attentive, compassionate person. He showed us that he truly is the best you can get! We are grateful God brought him into our lives.
