Stay away.
I contacted Mr Gilman regarding a false positive the interlock in my car. I had sent in all my paperwork to the state but they still sent me letter saying suspending license. So I paid Matt $1850 to help me. After an hour he called saying good news. The rmv apparently had a computer issue and didn't ...

Case dismissed
I can’t thank Casey at Gilman Law enough. I was facing multiple serious charges DV, witness intimidation, and an open container and she completely turned things around for me. From the start, Casey was professional, supportive, and fought tirelessly on my behalf. Every single charge was dismissed t...

Very Unprofessional and a total jerk
On Christmas Day 2020 I was issued a citation for Hit & Run Personal Injury and issued an Immediate Threat Suspension. He told me it would be $1000 for the Magistrates hearing for the Hit & Run and $1500 for the RMV and BOA license suspension hearings. We couldn't proceed with the suspension hearings...
Andrew - I certainly appreciate your frustration caused by the COVID-19 virus. There were extensive delays in every court across the state that impacted thousands of individuals. There was little that we could do as courts were not scheduling hearings. As mentioned in your comment, when you contacted me in January, 2021, I immediately advised you that I had a previously scheduled hip replacement surgery. This was scheduled months in advance of you contacting me with your notification. Understanding that I would be unable to drive and on medication, I properly advised you that we would need a brief continuance. You had every right to decide to move in another direction based on my medical procedure and my office immediately refunded you all your monies at your request. There was no scam, I was not in the office at the time and had someone sent you a check for all of your retainer. All monies were properly accounted for and refunded. We wish you nothing but the best of luck moving forward with your license suspension.

I highly recommend
I highly recommend attorney Matthew Gilman. I am very happy with the positive outcome of my case. Attorney Gilman is very knowledgeable and experient, my case was promptly resolved in a short period of time, since the issue arose. The attorney and his team were very patient answering all my questions...
Thank you Teo for the kind review. It was a pleasure working with you and getting you back on the road.
"Atty. Matt Gilman uses his talent and experience for everyone, not just his clients. I met Matt at a volunteer seminar on RMV licensing issues a few years ago, because real lawyers never *stop learning. He spent his time and effort to help educate his colleagues on nuanced areas of the law. He is always willing to take a call seeking guidance, or offer his perspective on approach. Lawyers that help other lawyers improve their knowledge, or share their resources deserve every success that comes their way. Good lawyers care very much about their clients and the results of the case; Great lawyers care just as much about the work of their colleagues and overal reputation of the bar. Matt is a great lawyer and I reccommend him."
"Matt is a great lawyer and extremely knowledgable in all issues surrounding criminal defense and RMV license appeals. I highly recommend this lawyer."
"Matt is a top notch Lawyer in the community who I have worked very closely with. I happily give him my endorsement as I know he is very knowledgeable in the world of criminal defense"
"I endorse Attorney Gilman. I've known him for several years and would, without hesitation, refer to him any client needing assistance with a driver's license or criminal defense issue."
