Bancruptcy
I was in a financial crisis and went to speak to Matthew about my options, notably bankruptcy. He sat down with me and we reviewed all my assets and debts owed. He was very patient with me, which I appreciated since I had never been in this predicament before. He explained each option fully, and did not push me one way or the other. I left his office with a calm and peace of mind I had not felt in months! He is very knowledgeable, answered all my questions in layman's terms and made me feel like I had control of my situation. I am very happy I chose him to help me!

Matt is detailed and thorough
I had Matt review my real estate trust when my mother passed away. Even though I had a trust, it turns out my previous lawyer never finished putting my property into the trust. Matt guided me through the process and ensured that my trust did what it was meant to do, keep my family's property safe for my children. I would recommend him to anyone.

Happy emergency estate planning client
I was about to undergo a medical procedure and needed estate planning documents drawn up quickly. Attorney Fabisch met with me to explain the process, and answer my questions. He also took a lot of time to ask me questions about what I wanted, and to make sure I understood my different options. Once I was sure what I wanted, he delivered the documents the following morning and I went into the hospital knowing my family was protected. I’m very thankful to Attorney Fabisch for his prompt, professional service and regularly recommend him to my friends and relatives.
