Malicious Prosecution and Defamation

Mr. Skipper represented me in civil and criminal harassment charge on very short notice but succeeded in having the District Court and District Attorney dismiss the charges for lack of evidence. We then filed a counter suit for malicious prosecution and defamation to recover costs and damages. The de...fendant was represented by two law firms but Mr. Skipper and his excellent team assembled and presented a factual, convincing case over a four day trial that resulted in the Jury convicting the decedent on both counts.

Knowledgeable, Helpful, and Professional

Skipper Law was very helpful in resolving repairs to my property in an amicable manner. Before I contacted their firm I was uncertain in regards to both my obligations and rights as a property owner.

Skipper Law saved me over $100,000 on an appeal against one of the largest financial services (brokerage) firms in the United St

I cannot express how happy I am that I hired Matthew D. Skipper to handle my case. It was like David vs. Goliath where a young, soon to be King David won and SO DID WE! It did not take our opposition (the large financial services firm that we sued, including their "team of attorneys") long to realize... that they were headed to very embarrassing, public defeat that would have most likely garnered national attention; and as a result they quickly conceded defeat! As if counter-suing and defeating a multi-billion dollar national financial services firm powerhouse wasn't enough, after calling their bluff Matthew advised me to demand that they also pay 100% of my legal fees to his law firm AND THEY DID IT!!! As I recall how Matthew crafted an extremely well written counter claim against our opponents and delivered what could only be described as a majestic oral argument before the 4th Circuit Court of Appeals in Richmond, MD I cannot help but think that King David himself would have been proud to have Matthew D. Skipper of Skipper Law, LLC as his legal counsel! If you need an attorney, do NOT leave this page until you contact Skipper Law at: (443) 274-6106.

Great Experience!

Matt has been an incredible asset to me a small business owner. I needed an attorney with a vast knowledge in the legal field and Matt provided that. Matt has provided various services to my organization ranging from reviewing employee/employer agreements to assisting with legal advise - as well as ...practical advice. What I loved the most about Matt's approach is his honesty. Rather than just saying anything, he lets you know when it comes to areas that are not in his field of knowledge. I will highly recommend Matt Skipper to any individual or business owner looking for an exceptional legal representation.

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.
