Biggest supporter of my case

Mr Sutter was very professional and specific since the early stage of the case. I always felt he’s is working for my best interest. Very supportive and understanding, he didn’t make any exceptions and pushed it so that I can get 100 of my case resolved. Great person to work with, very knowledgeable a...nd very responsive. My case was an employment case and I can’t be more satisfied about the result. I would recommend Mr Sutter for people that want to be represented by a person who cares about you , respects your case and makes the best decisions for you.

Professional and Thorough and Ensured Case Concluded Fairly

I was referred to WF&S by a friend and Matthew was a pleasure to work with at resolving my employment dispute case. He was thorough with keeping me informed on status. During the mediation, he was assertive in ensuring my settlement was fair and just, much to the dissatisfaction of opposing counsel.... I would highly recommend Matthew to anyone seeking legal services.

Good Attorney

I've worked with Matt on many occasions over the past 6 years. He's extremely intelligent, well spoken and level headed (in other words he's a great attorney). He's assisted us with contract law, employment law and more. I would highly recommend Matt to anyone.

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.
