Dolfi Law

Matt assisted me with a bike versus car accident that resulted in injury. He provided guidance on how the insurance, both auto and health, cover accidents of this variety and how I should present them with health care service providers. He continue to represent me well resulting in compensation both ...for lost equipment as well as for the impact to my life. I would highly recommend Matt.

Knowledgeable Bicycle Attorney

Matt helped me with my bicycle-related case and I couldn't ask for a better representative in my corner. He was so helpful each step of the way and helped translate everything that was going on into layman's terms so that I could easily understand what was going on. I always felt like I was his top... priority and that feeling cannot be overstated.

Great Attorney

I worked with Matt after a cycling accident. He was extremely professional and easy to work with throughout the entire process. We are pleased with our settlement amount and would recommend Matt for anyone needing a great attorney.

Review

I hired Mr. Dolfi to help me with a personal injury matter. Mr. Dolfi made the process so easy for me. Even though my case was small he always returned phone calls and emails promptly and answered all of my questions. I appreciate his advise and everything he was able to accomplish for me,. Witho...ut his help I wouldn't have received the settlement I did.

Avvo Rating

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. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
