He was a soldier and belonged to the Partido Conservador . Juan José Guzmán was one of the presidents, who are counted among the puppets of Francisco Malespín , who in the background directed the fate of the Partido Conservador . On April 12, 1842 José Escolastico Marín gave him the presidency. José Escolástico Marín had been entrusted with the office of Dionisio Villacorta. This Dionisio Villacorta gave Juan José Guzmán the office on June 30, 1842 to be elected. At a Congreso Nacional on January 27, 1842 elections were called in El Salvador. In the first direct presidential election, no candidate received an absolute majority, so Coronel Antonio José Cañas was declared president.

During his reign, José Francisco Morazán Quezada of the Partido Liberal returned from exile. Morazán became president of Costa Rica.
