look no further

in 2022, i was arrested for DWI and other charges. after taking my case, Matt had the DA and judge dismiss all other charges from my record. as far as my DWI was concerned, Matt adjudicated the best possible outcome allowed by law. for anyone looking for a criminal attorney, look no further than Matt...hew Tuohy.

MATT TUOHY, ESQ. TOP NOTCH LAWYER

Mr. Tuohy goes above and beyond the duties of an attorney. He acts as a friend and someone you can confide in. He wins every trial he has ever been on. He makes headline news several times PER year. If you are looking to stay out of jail and not get ripped off, I highly recommend you contact Matt if ...you or a loved one is ever in trouble or need help with other areas of law as well such as family law matters and injury matters. Matt is smart, fierce, and efficient!!!

Wonderful Job

He was excellent, accepted my misdemeanor before COVID hit, answered me when worried to settle my nerves throughout and navigated the courts reopening as best we could. He was able to take my misdemeanor down to a non criminal fine, less than a parking ticket. You want him fighting for you in the rin...g.

Highly recommend, a million thanks!!

Matt was referred to me by a good friend who hired him for a similar scenario as my own. Within a day of calling Matt I met with him in his office to go over the case - he immediately set expectations and from that moment forward was committed to getting me the best possible outcome for my situation.... I was in quite a bit of serious trouble and handling this case with the best care and intellect possible was crucial, as the trajectory of my life moving forward had the potential to be extremely affected in a detrimental manner by the outcome. As a first time offender with little knowledge about the legal system, it was important for me to put this in the hands of someone trustworthy and dedicated. Not only did Matt meet the expectations he transparently set with me upon meeting, he put in the time and work to exceed them. He is truly dedicated and committed to his clients and career. Although i could not help but have anxiety throughout the course of this, and fear the outcome, I don't know how I would have gotten through this without Matt and his superior expertise and drive. Additionally Matt gave me all the right recommendations to personally be productive in positively impacting the outcome of my case during the procession of ongoing court appearances and adjournments. He helped me turn this negative experience in my life into a positive in many ways. Matt worked so hard, over the course of what turned out to be about a year, to make sure this one mistake I made in my life as a young adult does not stay with me to haunt and hurt me. He genuinely cares about his clients on an individual basis, you can tell his passion fuels his drive. I cannot be more grateful for trusting him and hiring him to represent me, and I highly recommend him to anyone who needs legal representation. A million thanks to you Matt!!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!

I was told I needed a criminal attorney, as you can imagine I was overwhelmed with anxiety. I never had been in such a "situation". I didn't know where to turn or what to do, so I did what most people would do and went online and searched for the best criminal lawyer. A few names came up. I called on...e, (I won't leave her name) she wasn't very personable, she asked me a couple of questions, I told her I didn't have much money and instead of saying something like, "why don't you come in and chat further about your situation and then discuss money", she must've gotten turned off when I told her about my financial situation and told me to call legal aid near me, which left me frantic, assuming I would get the same results from every other attorney, but I decided to try again and I called Matt. He didn't answer his phone but as soon as I hung up I had gotten a text from him stating he was busy and he'd call right back, and he did. He said "Hi I'm Matt Tuohy." I told him my name and he said "What's going on brother?" That alone made me feel like I was talking to a friend or someone I knew already. I proceeded to tell him about my situation, right away he wanted me to send him paperwork that I had received and told me to come see him in his office that same day. We talked some more on the phone, he asked where I was from etc. He put me at ease to say the least, just from that phone call. I went to see him and he told me of my options and/or possible outcomes. We then talked about money and let's just say he worked with me. This is the guy you want in your corner, he really cares and I can't thank him enough. He came, he saw, he conquered.
