The son of the Imperial Court Councilor Wilhelm Buff (1825–1900) and his wife Wilhelmine, née Müller (1829–1882) attended high school in Giessen and the Thomas School in Leipzig . From 1877 to 1880 he studied law in Giessen and Leipzig. He was a member of the Hassia-Gießen Corps . In 1881 he received his doctorate in Giessen. In 1884 he was appointed court advisor in Giessen.

In the 32nd Landtag , he was a non-attached member of the Second Chamber of the States of the Grand Duchy of Hesse from 1903 to 1906 for the constituency of Darmstadt. In 1902 he and Adolf Morneweg (1851–1909) suffered as the national liberal candidates for Darmstadt a narrow election defeat against the liberal - social democratic candidates, straw hat manufacturer Wilhelm Langenbach (1841–1911) and bookseller Ludwig Saeng (1848–1931), who had a lead of 10 votes . The election was accompanied by anti-Semitic resentment against Langenbach. On April 30th, the mandates were canceled in an election examination of the Second Chamber. Buff won a replacement election together with the architect Heinrich Müller (1849–1906) . The semi-official Darmstädter Zeitung , which is close to the National Liberals, wrote that the Second Chamber was " happily enriched by two bourgeois mandates ". When Müller died on October 30, 1906, Buff had to surrender the mandate (successor was Wilhelm Glässing ). In 1905 he was promoted to senior public prosecutor in Mainz. In 1903 he became a member of the Commission for the Reform of the Criminal Procedure and then (1905) continued to work as a laborer in the Reich Justice Office .
