Matthew R. Schutz; Capable, informed and the excellent choice for your legal concerns/

I found Mr. Schutz, with a internet legal inquiry. He responded to my need for an attorney the very next day. From the word go I found him to be very informed, responsive, and extremely intelligent. My case was very stressful, I was a basket case. Mr. Schutz, came in reviewed the information and took... charge. He did not leave me waiting and worrying. He gave me my cost and told me how everything would work, Not once did he vary from his word and our written agreement. I was in over my head dealing with these people, who literally had me homeless, until one call from Mr. Schutz. I can not recommend him enough if you want a lawyer you can trust to get the job done without taking advantage of you in the process. He asked me once; What I wanted to happen and went about getting it done, in his calm knowledgeable way. Yes I would suggest the use of his services. You would never make a better choice. Shelia Horn, Client.

Knowledgable Lawqyer

I have a phone consultation with him regarding a landlord-tenant matter. He asked for all the correspondence. Then he made a call to me to advice what to do, my options. He is very knowledgeable, polite and responsive.

Great Lawyer, Extremely Helpful

I posted a question in Avvo this weekend and Attorney Shutz gave an excellent answer right away. Since the leasing agent in my apartment complex made up her own rules and demanded me to move by the end of the month, I decided to contact Attorney Schutz for legal advice and representation. He review...ed my lease contract and gave me solid advice to put me at ease. He suggested me what to say to the the apartment management company first before spending money on engaging his service. Indeed, that worked out for me and the leasing agent backed off. Attorney Schutz is very knowledgeable about tenant/landlord laws, responsive, and a great person to work with. I will definitely contact him again with future legal matters and highly recommend his services to anyone. Attorney Schutz : God bless you and thank you so much!

Attorney review

My 18 year old son retained Matthew to represent him for charge of possession of CDS under 50 grams in a motor vehicle. Matthew was available immediately - we met him at his home after work, and he was knowledgeable and responsive to my and my sons concerns. He followed through immediately in contact...ing the court and obtaining all of the necessary paperwork, and accompanied my son to court.

Absolutely Outstanding

I had the pleasure of using Mathew’s services on a recent traffic violation. He was able to reduce the violation to zero point’s and a minimal fine. What impressed me the most was the diligent and Professional way he was able to plead my case without me having to travel back to New Jersey to atten...d trail. Mathew had kept me informed each step of the process, advised me in which avenue to proceed and was accurate in every way. If I ever need to use an attorney again, in any aspect, I would not hesitate to use Mathew.

  • 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.
