Our Philosophy

At Guiducci & Guiducci, PC, we are dedicated to providing efficient, responsive, and comprehensive legal representation in all aspects of veterinary business law. Whether part of an ongoing client relationship or a one-time transaction, every matter is approached with careful attention to your goals and the strategic options available.

We work closely with each client—and their tax advisors—to craft tailored legal solutions that align with their broader business objectives. Our firm is also deeply committed to advancing the veterinary profession through education. We regularly support continuing education for veterinarians and industry consultants through one-on-one counseling, informal seminars, presentations at state and national veterinary conferences, and instruction at veterinary schools.

Ed Guiducci was instrumental in lease negotiations with our more than difficult landlord, more patient than words can convey, always willing to listen to me in times of utter panic. He was extremely helpful in our partnership agreement, explaining details without tiring, solving any issue that needed to be addressed. Ed is so knowledgeable in practice management, always willing AND able to help with advice and referral to other professionals.

I have worked with Ed Guiducci for years. What I like about Ed's style is he strives for a win-win approach in every negotiation. The deal has to work for the buyer, seller, and practice to be successful.

We had the pleasure of working with Ed Guiducci during a very intense practice and real estate purchase. Ed provided sound and expert advice in addressing aspects both known and unknown throughout the entire process and, where appropriate, coordinated his efforts with our real estate attorney.

Although geographically placed on opposite sides of the country (we are located in Pennsylvania), this was never an issue. His response was consistently prompt even on urgent issues. Understanding these types of transactions are stressful, knowing that Ed always had our best interests in mind added a level of comfort that was needed. He was one of the more pleasurable aspects of the entire process and a resource we highly recommend to anyone even contemplating such an endeavor."

Selling our multi-location, 24-hour specialty and emergency practice was no small task—but working with you made all the difference. Your deep knowledge of the veterinary marketplace, guidance through every step, and skilled negotiation with consolidators helped us achieve a successful and rewarding sale. We couldn’t recommend your team more highly.

Ed Guiducci has provided me a multitude of services over the past seventeen years in almost all phases of veterinary practice ownership including employment contracts, building lease, associate stair step buy in contracts, exit strategy, and ultimately the final buy out of the practice. He also was there to help when it came time to sell the real estate. In all cases, he was beyond fair, timely, reasonable and reassuring. My investment in his services has been paid back many many times over. His knowledge, integrity, intelligence, attention to detail and professionalism remain unmatched. Thanks to Ed, I reaped the financial and emotional rewards of a well run practice and am now very happily retired.
