Review for Noel Guardi

Noel Guardi represented my husband and I, along with multiple other plaintiffs, on a case where money we had invested vanished with no promise of recovery. Processing the case was lengthy and often times showed little promise, but Noel persevered with determination to see that justice prevailed for... those who were wronged. He worked with the SEC and Colorado Attorney General to see this case through to the end, his dedication and commitment never failing. Noel’s experience, education and devotion to ensuring a good outcome for his clients ended with a victory for him, his firm, and those he represented. I would recommend Noel Guardi, without hesitation, to anyone needing legal counsel.

Trujillo mess

Noel come to us from the grace of God. Without him and his expert skills we would still be looking for answers. From the start he explained the case, costs, and a time line. The case was very complex to say the least, and was handled by Noel like I never thought was possible. He was always ready an...d willing to go out of his way to help. We live in a very rural area, and don't do driving in the city well, Noel drove 150 plus miles to meet us. With Noel's vast knowledge we were able to recover a large portion of our loss. The SEC recovered some too but not much. Noel went after the guilty parties involved and made them pay. I can't say enough good words about how our case was handled, and about Noel. It was a experience I don't ever want to repeat but if I have to I will call Noel Guardi first thing. My wife and I are proud to call him our attorney and our friend.

Trujillo Ponzi Scheme

Noel did an excellent job with a very complex and tough case. At the start of the case I thought we would never recover anywhere close to our total loss. Trujillo and his team had no money and there were so many twists and turns in the case, chances of success seemed next to zero. But Noel careful...ly, wisely, and aggressively worked to get past the legal tie ups, and he found where we could get some restitution for the losses we suffered. Noel overcame challenge after challenge and gave us wise counsel to maximize our return. Hey, he did better than the SEC on our case. I also liked that he kept us informed on the legal proceeding in simple English and prepared us if we needed to go to trial. Noel did an excellent job.

Memories of days long gone!

Its been a long, long while but I have never forgotten this gentleman (and his bride( who championed a shareholder litigation of investors vs MacGuide Magazine, RB Marich and the "brains" of the rip off, founder, David Duty who, by the way, still owes me $250k awarded by Judge Connie Peterson. Of cou...rse scum rises to the top and Duty managed to evadfe all collection efforts. C'est la gurre! Noel managed to recover at least some money from the failed MacGuide for some of the investors who signed on to sue. Iam now 75 andf have fond memories of the Guardis who held my han through the morass after I filed complaints with the Denver SEC. A good person, Noel is.
