Not trustworthy

Attorney Matthew Couloute was hired to represent me when it was time for us to go to court he was unprepared no motions were filed. He was very unorganized. He would not return any of my phone calls. He took my money as if he was a Con artist! Do not hire him as an attorney! He will take your money m...ake it sound good like he can beat any case and do absolutely nothing in the end!
