I have worked with a number of attorneys on a number of issues - copyright violations, creating corporations, international and domestic contracts, creating trademarks, securing copyrights, a divorce, land use and battling a seizure from US Fish and Wildlife. I have worked with attorneys in Los Angeles, Belgium, Las Vegas, Atlanta and a number of others in Salem. I have been fortunate thus far that most of the attorneys I have worked with have been competent and efficient to some degree. However, in working with Gunn and Gunn and Marc Gunn in particular on contracts, land use, business counsel, some copyright work and battling US Fish and Wildlife, I have found an added measure of personal investment I have not seen elsewhere. With Marc, I have never been made to feel that my questions were less than welcome or that my timing didn't suit his schedule. I have had the distinct and unfortunate impression from other attorneys that somehow they were my client instead of the reverse. Marc's professionalism, accessibility and the personal interest he has shown in my needs has been beyond what I have experienced or sadly come to expect from attorneys. I have always felt that my calls or even stopping into his office is welcome, even if he can't immediately answer my questions. He quickly researches and offers solutions or a pathway to proceed. When were having difficulty completing the purchase of land last year, Marc stepped in and almost immediately remedied the issues that my wife and I and the seller could not resolve because her land was tied up in an East coast trust while her attorneys dragged their feet and were of little help. Marc has been most helpful and generous in working with me to draw up contracts with my counterpart overseas, often charging me less than I expected, and far less than I have been charged by my attorney in Las Vegas for similar work. About 3 years ago I had a shipment seized by US Fish and Wildlife for a clerical error. They proved to be nearly impossible to work with and were frankly misleading in declaring my case closed with no remedy or recourse. Even though I don't think that it was Marc's area of expertise, he was the only attorney I spoke with who quickly found answers as to how to exercise my due process, how to submit my petition for remission and strategies for how to deal with an impenetrable bureaucracy. i spoke with two or three other attorneys at the time, one of which was supposed to be an expert in dealing with the department of the interior, but either received no follow up or unhelpful information from all of them that I had already found myself through simple Google searches. And again, Marc was generous with his time and billed me very fairly. I would highly recommend Marc to anyone seeking an attorney. I have found him to be a constant and reliable resource in running my business as well as a capable and excellent counsel on personal and financial matters.

I got into a rather sticky situation with a DUI car crash back in October. I had never been in trouble legally before with anything but was facing four misdemeanor charges as a result of the incident. I was initially facing some jail time and some other quite serious repercussions. Marc was brilliant at negotiating a plea that was of minimal consequence to my life and my future. He even reached out to my immigration attorney (not a U.S. citizen) to sort out what the best deal from a U.S. customs perspective. From the price I paid to what was achieved, I am very happy with my choice in hiring Marc. All I have to do is my part with a few little things to have the whole incident behind me and off my record!

I contacted Marc Gunn regarding a misdemeanor conviction on my record from 28 years ago (I was 18 at the time). This was a non-expungable offense. I explained to Marc, just as I had to so many others over the years, what happened and how I ultimately was convicted. Marc explained to me how this was a very unique situation and although he would love to help me, there was no provision in place to remove the misdemeanor from my record as this has never been done before. He assured me that this would be a long shot, but he would be willing to take on my case if this is what I chose to do. Marc stood up in court and fought for me and the unjust that occurred 28 years ago. For the first time in the history of the US court systems, the court agreed with his argument that this was a unique situation deserves consideration and ruled in my favor. Marc took on my case with the dedication to make the impossible...possible. What Marc did was a miracle. He believed in me, fought for me, and got justice for me that was long over do. I highly recommend Marc Gunn with Gunn & Gunn Attorneys at Law!

Mr. Gunn helped me with a legal matter, from contact to resolution. Exceptional communication; Mr. Gunn was very clear with his responses to my questions regarding my case., both via email and telephone. I was provided with copies of everything, as well as the original document at closure. I would definitely recommend Mr. Gunn. If Marc can't help you, he will help you find someone who can.

I never felt I was being judged. Mr. Gunn answered all my questions in direct and straightforward way and appeared knowledgeable on the subject(s). But the reason I went to see him next time I needed representative is because of the masterful presentation he did at the hearing. Highly recommend.

I have never needed an attorney and hope I never will again. Marc was calming for me, as I had no idea of what was real. The internet of course was accurate for my situation but painted the worst case scenario which was not good. Marc has the experience to give me the real world perspective of what I would most likely face in the legal system. Ultimately, he got my case dismissed - which is best outcome of course. Easy to talk with and explains things very clearly and always open to my questions.

I had some legal questions about my business. I initially consulted with Marc and ended up hiring him to help me create the legal documents I needed to move forward. I'm very happy that I did and highly recommend him.

After visiting with a couple of other lawyers in Salem, I had almost given up. Luckily I was referred to Marc, during a difficult time. Marc and his team helped turn things around for my family and I. We had never needed an attorney until recently. Marc and his staff were very knowledgeable and easy to work with, they guided us through the entire process. Thank you to everyone at Gunn & Gunn

In January of 2019 I got a DUII. I had never been in trouble with the law before. I am so glad I hired Marc to defend me. He was with me every step through the court process, And on top of that got my careless driving ticket dismissed. I highly recommend Gunn &Gunn Law Firm.

Marc did an excellent job of walking me through the DUII Diversion process in 2019 and helped me with every single step. He was very patient with explaining forms to me, meeting me punctually when I needed to see him, represented me well in court appearances, and gave me overall peace of mind during my diversion program. Marc definitely exceeded my expectations and I would strongly recommend him to anyone who needs legal representation.
