Guerin 'Real Deal' Provini

I worked with guerin on a relatively complex and serious case. The case dragged on for two years and Guerin represented me from the time the charge was filed, thru a preliminary hearing and all the way up until a trial readiness conference where the case was dismissed. He had taken the case over fro...m another attorney who represented me during the pre-filing stage. Prior to hiring Guerin I consulted with just about every board certified criminal defense attorney in Santa Clara county and also another attorney who is known to be the top attorney in the area, and ultimately felt most comfortable with Guerin. Guerin is a low key guy who maintains professionalism throughout the process, and it seems obvious that he's taken seriously by the judges and DA's within the county. He responded to all of my emails and phone calls in a timely fashion, and over time I could tell he would hear me out when it came to strategizing and spit balling ideas. This to me was very important. Ultimately Guerin was able to get my case dismissed after a drawn out litigation process. He certainly was not the least expensive attorney i consulted with and some were willing to take my case for a very low flat rate, but I undoubtedly got what I paid for and am quite certain I would've regretted making a decision on price alone. Guerin and I had an hourly agreement and I have to say he's one of the few attorneys I would trust with such an arrangement, and never once did I feel he was billing the file or taking advantage of the situation. Quite honestly I would've never expected my case to become quite as costly as it did, but I have absolutely no regrets and in fact feel as though I still owe a debt of gratitude for the diligent, cautious and thorough work performed with my case. I recommend Guerin Provini to anyone facing criminal charges, and would be happy to provide more information to anyone considering hiring Guerin. Please mention DH and dismissal 2016 and I'm sure he'll know who you're talking about.

Guerin Provini is at the top of his game and the top of the field of Criminal Defense Attorneys!

Guerin Provini provided excellent representation, kept me informed and negotiated a reasonable settlement. Attorney Provini was personable and professional always on time and proactive in his communication with the DA and the Judge. I would highly recommend Guerin Provini to anyone with criminal d...efense problems, he made me feel comfortable and confident that we could navigate the difficulties at hand and reach a positive settlement.

Guerin Provini Is The Best

Guerin Provini has helped me with a DUI I received driving home after a couple beers. I was able to get the DUI charge down to a Wet and Reckless with his professional help and guidance thought the process. I highly recommend Mr. Provini to anyone who is looking for a great lawyer for their case

Less Stressful DUI!

Guerin is a friend of a friend of mine. I met him years ago. When my son got a DUI, he was very proactive and was able to walk him through all the details and steps to make the process less stressful. He also was extremely reasonable. I also referred a friend when her son also got a DUI and Guerin ...did an amazing job for them as well.

"I have known Guerin Provini professionally for many years; he is an accomplished trial attorney as well as a skillful attorney in negotiating favorable settlements with the District Attorney for his clients. I have referred clients to him with pending criminal cases because of his many years of trial experience and highly rated professional reputation; and I have been please with the results. The consequences of having a criminal conviction are very significant and can affect employment eligibility, the right to obtain certain government benefits, immigration consequences, and future obligations to the court. Guerin Provini helps clients navigate through the legal process by staying in communication with his clients each step of the way. I highly recommend a consultation to any person with Guerin Provini regarding a pending or possible criminal case."
