High level Preparation & Attention to Details

Matthew Clemente far exceeded my expectations of a criminal defense attorney. He was honest with what his expectations were with my son case and walked not only my son through every step of the process but me as well. He was always quick with responses to any questions I or my son had. Mattew Clement...e made us feel like we were his only client. Mattew was very compassionate but tough in the court room exactly what my son wanted in a lawyer. I couldn't have asked for a more professional, driven, knowledge, caring attorney. Do not hesitate to call and speak with Mattew about your case .I assure you, you will not be disappointed. K.U & J.U

Highly satisfied client!

January 4th to February 5th is how long my boyfriend was in jail. One month, that's it! He had 4 felony charges and Matt & Ben were able to get the felonies reduced to misdemeanors & 1 year probation with fines / court fees. Matt kindly texted me the good news immediately after court! Matt is an exce...ptional lawyer! He communicates consistently, responds to texts all hours of the day and night, and returns phone calls quickly. He keeps you updated with case information frequently and makes sure you understand. He's very kind and respectful, and makes you feel like your case is important to him. I highly recommend Matt Clemente as your next criminal defense lawyer!

Excellent Advice

Attorney Clemente offered excellent advice about how to handle a property dispute. He reviewed the property deeds through email, and called me back to discuss my legal options quickly. He is friendly, polite, and considerate. He was able to answer my questions and advise me over the phone without nee...ding to schedule any appointments. If I need to retain an attorney for this issue in the future, I will definitely be contacting him again.
