McGuigan – Legal

Hi I'm Ryan McGuigan

Personal law attorney. Legal protection and representation.
My primary focus is in criminal litigation but I have extensive experience in corporate fraud, white-collar criminal investigations, as well as civil litigation.

I began my career as a private investigator and conducted investigations into trade secret misappropriation cases across the United States, and most notably a case involving the theft of trade secrets in Mexico City.

As a former prosecutor for the State of Connecticut I worked in the Judicial Districts at Stamford and New Britain. I have extensive trial experience in both Federal and State Courts.

I have tried numerous cases to verdict, and has acquittals for major Class A felonies in both State and Federal Courts, including the United States Military Court of Justice.

In 2018 I opened SecondChanceInterventions.Com to assist those seeking drug and alcohol recovery.

Beyond the courtroom, I embrace the joy of family life, residing with my wife and five children. In my free time I enjoy watersports, skiing, and travel.

How I Work

Call

At the very moment when you are faced with the need to go to court or solve the problem in a pretrial order, call me. You should not delay this decision - the sooner you call, the more likely I can help you.

I give free advice on your question over the phone. At this stage, I can only give an initial assessment of the complexity of the case and decide if I can take it up.

Meeting

Payment

You can pay in full or in part of the total amount agreed in our contract and I get to work for you.

Solving the Case

If it is possible, I try to resolve the case at the pre-trial level but if not, I represent your interests in court and seek a successful resolution of the issue. I'm not afraid to go to trial and have many victories.
