Firm Information
Overview
Our lead attorney, John A. Guthrie, began practicing law in 1990 with the goal of helping ordinary people with ordinary legal problems answering their questions and solving their legal problems so that they can raise their families and pursue their dreams. Today, he and the three associate attorneys at our firm, the Law Offices of John A. Guthrie, have that same goal. We sum it up with our motto:
When you have questions, we have answers.
If you have a legal problem in our practice areas, we know how to help you find the solutions you need and bring about resolutions to the issues. We have a reputation for "fighting the good fight."
- If you need a family law attorney, you want someone who will be aggressive in pursuing your rights but civil and courteous to the opposing party and the other attorney. We will. Contact our office for an appointment with a Pleasanton, California, divorce attorney to discuss your case. We will help you weigh all the pros and cons; analyze them thoroughly; try to explain your options in non-technical language; and help you decide on the next steps for resolving all the problems.
- If you need a criminal defense lawyer because you have been charged with a misdemeanor, call us. We can provide a strong and effective defense .

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
