Great attorney, and would absolutely recommend to others

Matthew was extremely knowledgable in all facets of my case, he listened to all of my concerns and was a strong advocate throughout the process. I could not have imagined what this horrible process would have been like without him at my side. I thank him for all of his work for me and my family. I w...ould absolutely use him again but hope to never need to do so.

Fantastic Attorney!

I went to Matt(how many attorneys ask you to call them by their nickname?) and although my divorce was the worst thing I have done in my life, having him as an attorney was a fantastic experience. Extremely professional, knowledgeable and very skilled in what he does. Made the process more palatable..., and did a great job for me AND my family!

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.
