Great Lawyer

John is an excellent lawyer who not only helped me with my case in Somerville, but also saved me a lot of time and effort. He told me exactly what was going to happen, prepared with me before the hearings, and got me a very positive result. He is thorough and worth it. A++++!

Professionalism is the Mateus Way!

Attorney Mateus represents not only his clients in court but himself. I was proud to be represented by him as he researched my case thoroughly , responded to me promptly with clear and concise information. I would recommend him to any of my friends or family members.

Highly reccommended

Excellent professional attorney with reasonable rates. John was extremely knowledgeable and has proven to our company that he is a true resource. He has demonstrated himself as someone who is competent and capable of handling a diverse range of legal issues.

Professional, thorough, and a great lawyer

John did a great job helping us get a wedding album we were owed that was almost a year late. He clearly informed us about our options, frequently updated us about the status, and worked very hard to get the photographers to respond and deliver what they owed. He was compassionate, professional, and ...took all the stress away from us. Without his help, I'm sure we would never have received our albums!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
