Outstanding Attorney

My first Dui was a nightmare. When I looked for Attorneys and read their reviews. Matthew Gilman stood out. He assured me I had called the right attorney and I did. He was very professional and caring and he worked in a timely fashion for me. I am getting my license back as soon as the registry relea...ses them. Without Matthew I would be still waitng. So heres a word of advice. If you need an Attorney for a dui dont hesitate to give him a call trust me you will be in good hands.Thank you Attorney Gilman for giving me my livelihood back without reservation...Your the Best!!! God bless you for what you do!!! Thanks again

To Whom It May Concern

Matt was there when I really needed him, he showed compassion, dedication and professionalism during my contract with him. At the end we won the case and I got my life back to normal. I am actually driving with a hardship license because of him and only have 4 weeks to be completely clean of any cons...train thanks to Matt. I will recommend anyone to him.

Best license attorney in Ma!

If you need an attorney (especially one who deals with RMV and Mass Board of Appeals) look no further. I met Matt at a very rough time in my life. I lost my license due to an out of state suspension for a DUI charge. When I lost my license I was overwhelmed with anxiety and fear about the complicatio...ns that were to come because of the out of state charge. I started to look for an attorney, and found Matt. I had a consultation with him and he was honest, fair, and told me exactly what we needed to do, and I hired him immediately. I am so happy I found Matt because throughout this 15 month ordeal, which felt like a lifetime, Matt was there for me, and lead me in the right direction in getting my license back. I was anxious through this whole ordeal, and many times he listened to me complain ALOT, and was a champ about it, and always made me feel better . Matt isn’t an attorney that is about money and only money, but is an attorney who genuinely helps people and cares. I dealt with three different attorneys, the one for my out of state criminal charge , one to deal with the professional boards (I’m a professional) and Matt, who dealt with the Mass Board of Appeals and RMV. Out of the three attorneys, Matt was by far the best, and I paid a third of what I paid for the others, and he did the most work and went above and beyond. Matt was also a very responsive attorney(which is hard to find). If you need an attorney please save yourself the time and energy and hire Matt, he is a good guy who is honest and beyond fair. Thanks Matt for all of your help!!!

OUI Plea and Hardship License

Matt was proactive in reaching out to me once he took my case. He listened to all of the details of the case and was reassuring. He knew all the ins and outs of my circumstances. He was also readily available via the phone and email. On the day of my court appearance attorney Gilman arrived early... and spoke with the ada about my case. He was reassuring as we waited for the case to be called. During the interaction with the judge he was proactive in providing the judge with positive aspects of my case. The judge ended up adding one charge, but I do not fault attorney Gilman for that. Additionally, Matt was super helpful in getting my hardship license. He walked me through the process, give me guidance on crafting my letter, researched public transportation options and how they would not be viable, and brought me to the RMV in Boston. While at the RMV, he showed me exactly where to go, what forms to fill in, and met with the hearing officer, on my behalf. Attorney Gilman has experience working at the RMV as a hearing officer, and as such he had a lot of connections, and this made the process very smooth. I would recommend him unequivocally and without hesitation.
