Divorce Attorney

Matt was professional, organized, thorough, patient, accurate, and clearly explained all the complexities of the divorce process. Matt was firm, fair, and compassionate.

Made a difficult situation easier

Matthew is a true professional, and made a very difficult personal situation easier with his calm demeanor, professionalism and compassion. He helped me to navigate a very difficult divorce and constantly fought for my rights, and helped maintain my sanity. I am hoping to never go though this again, ...but if I did, there is no one else, or no other firm, I would turn to.

Child custody

After 3 years of custody court I got full custody of my child, thanks to the amazing work of Matthew B. Marcus. I'm really grateful for his emotional support and understanding at this sensitive time. He was knowledgeable of the family court process, provided an insightful perspective and professional... guidance that led to a happy outcome for my family.

Matt Marcus/Preston, Stutman & Partners

I had hired the above-referenced Firm based on a recommendation from a colleague of mine. Matt Marcus began to help me when I was 1.5-years into a difficult and highly emotional Divorce proceeding. His dedication to my situation was immediate and appreciated beyond words. He was reachable at all t...imes of the day, night and weekend(s). Matt is a consummate professional, an exceptional negotiator and a baby-faced assassin. My ex-wife's attorney was incredibly difficult to deal with and Matt's calm demeanor charmed her and caused her to make several miscalculations that ended-up benefiting me greatly. She absolutely underestimated him and did not see him coming. I would highly recommend Matt, as well as his Firm, to anyone out there needing assistance in their field of expertise. I assure you that you are not just a Case File Number at Preston, Stutman & Partners. They took exceptional care of me and, to this day, check-in on how things are going for me and my two children.

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.

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.
