Hurley Burish, S.C.

I want to take a moment to sincerely thank Attorney Joseph Bugni for the way he has represented me during my case appeal. From the beginning, he treated me not just as another file, but as a person with a story, a family, and a future at stake. He is an amazing choice for appeals and I knew I made the correct decision immediately after meeting with him . He has represented a variety of high profile cases and made me feel confident I had made the right decision. Attorney Bugni demonstrated an incredible command of the law, but just as importantly, he showed genuine compassion. He listened to me, believed in me, and worked tirelessly to present my case with integrity and precision. What stood out the most was his ability to balance professionalism with humanity--he never sugarcoated the challenges, but he always gave me hope and a clear path forward. This appeal was not just about legal arguments; it was about fairness, justice, and my livelihood. Attorney Bugni understood the bigger picture and fought for it with passion and care. His dedication gave me confidence at a time when everything felt uncertain. I cannot recommend him highly enough. If you are looking for an attorney who combines brilliance in the courtroom with authenticity and heart, Joseph Bugni is that lawyer. My family and I will always be grateful to him and the team at Hurley & Burish for standing beside me through this difficult chapter of my life. Thanks again.

Attorney Skylar Croy handled my daughter's case with grace, class, and the utmost respect. I could not have asked for a better person to represent her. My daughter simply wanted the opportunity to continue playing the sport she is so passionate about during the remainder of her high school career -- and Attorney Croy made that possible. Both Attorney Skylar Croy and Attorney Joseph Bugni consistently kept our family informed, explained everything in a way we could understand, and encouraged us throughout the process. Attorney Croy was personable, approachable, and always followed through on his word. His professionalism and dedication were evident every step of the way. It was truly an honor to work with Attorney Skylar Croy and Attorney Joseph Bugni. Our family is deeply grateful for their support and advocacy.

I never needed a criminal defense attorney in my life. Until I did. I am eternally grateful for Joe Bugni. He is the kind of exceptional human being that movies are made about. He's a hero that seems too good to be true, but he is. He is a real person - who demonstrated, in my every contact with him, kindness, hard work, and brilliance. Kindness I met Attorney Bugni during the most difficult time of my life. From the start and always, he was non-judgmental, thoughtful, and curious about who I was as a person. He gave me space to share my point of view, he asked helpful questions, and he always took the time to make sure mine were answered as well. We met in his office with his explanation and plans thoroughly diagramed on a whiteboard. We went on walks to clear our heads. He called me often just to check in and make sure I was okay. His kindness and compassion are extraordinary. Hard work Attorney Bugni couples his thoughtfulness with a zeal for doing the work. He is truly excited about legal analysis, legal research, and legal writing. He is a disciplined, meticulous, thorough advocate. He frequently took a seed of a thought and turned it into a taut, compelling work of advocacy after research, writing, and re-writing. Attorney Bugni works in concert with paralegal Trinity Northrop to produce written filings that are accurate, well-researched, easy to understand, and actually attractive, adding pull-out quotes, diagrams, tables for maximum persuasive value. Ms. Northrop is Attorney Bugni's secret weapon. She makes what Attorney Bugni writes better. She also shares many of Attorney Bugni's attributes. Together they will never be outworked by any adversary. Brillance Attorney Bugni is highly intelligent, but with an uncommon (among lawyers of his skill) humility. It is this combination that drives his excellence in that he tests his own arguments repeatedly for errors, assumptions, and holes. He is creative in anticipating responses to his advocacy and he has an economy of words that is refreshing. He doesn't waste time. His work is so well-polished and prepared that he doesn't have to say much. He is confident, but not arrogant. Now that my case is done, I would not be the positive, happy person I am today without the care and counsel of Attorney Bugni. He walked with me through every twist and turn. He became a friend while maintaining professionalism. He took calls from people close to me. He spent untold hours helping me not only get past the case against me, but also making sure that I was okay, that I had support from family and friends, and that I have a future. He is my hero. I cannot thank him enough.

I'd like to send a special thank you to Joe Bugni and his team, as Joe made all the right moves in my case. He didn't have to go the extra mile, but he did. He is compassionate, experienced, and will defend your rights to the best of his ability. If you facing the US Government in a criminal case, you want the best lawyer on your side, and with Mr. Bugni and his team, you have the best in the State. He will take care of you and give you the piece of mind that you need. If you are in a situation like the one I was in, you are going to really need the support and dedication of a legal team to see you through the whole process. Freedom is precious, don't make the mistake of not going with the best.

Joe Bugni assisted in my son's case that had severe charges and we didn't know where to turn or what to do. Joe immediately worked on our son's behalf to make sure evidence was captured for a strong defense and helped guide us when police conducted a search warrant at our house. I don't know what we would have done without Joe at Hurley Burish. Don't second guess or shop around. Hire him.
