This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Professionalism and Quality Work!

I found that Mr. Crowley had a high level of integrity and knowledge, and seemed genuinely concerned about the case as an individual, rather than just another case number on the dock. During the trial, Mr. Crowley asked all the relevant questions, reviewed all the documents of the opposing counsel, h...e found the inconsistencies with the plaintiff’s testimony, and was VERY concise with the cross examination. I expected the best he had to offer and he delivered. I highly recommend Mr. Crowley!

Good focused advice!

I consulted with Matthew about a potentially serious and expensive legal entanglement. His advice was very on-point and helpful.

Case dismissed, records expunged!

I hired Matthew Crowley as counsel, and he handled my case very well. I had no prior experience with the court system and had a lot of (mostly basic) questions, and he answered all of them with patience and clarity. He was willing and able to explain each step of the process, including his actions (e....g. requesting a continuation) and why he took them in this case. My case was dismissed before the trial date, largely in part due to his work, and he did the work to have my records expunged. Thank you, Matthew!

Phenomenal lawyer - got DUI dropped!

Matthew Crowley is excellent at his craft. He's hard-working, responsive, and above all knows everything about the law. For my case--which was a charge for DUI as well as refusing a breathalyzer, Matthew was able to get everything dropped for a single reckless driving charge. No regrets whatso...ever, and I'm blessed that I came across Matthew in the first place. Worth every penny!

Will take care of you as if you were FAMILY!

Mr. Crowley is very responsive and punctual with respect to time. I would get immediate responses via text/email and never did I feel neglected or feel like just another client. Since the very first time I heard his voice I knew I found the right person, not lawyer, but person who I wanted to represe...nt me. Mr. Crowley opened up time in his busy schedule to meet with me in person upon my request numerous times in order to bring me comfort and clarity. He is very flexible with payment plans although I chose to pay everything off upfront just because I felt so good about his services. If you’re looking for an attorney that is truly caring, someone who’s kind hearted, and who has genuine compassion for people and life’s circumstances, please look no further! Thank you Mr. Crowley for all the amazing work that you do! God bless you and your family, always!

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.
