Matt was very good about explaining the EEOC process, and is very knowledgeable about inter-governmental workings. He took the time to explain things, and gave me all the options available to me in my case. I was very satisfied with his services.

Matthew E. Hughes's Lawyer Endorsements
"Mr. Hughes was easy to work with and professional both in and outside of the courtroom. He also prepared diligently for the trial that we had together. I understand that he handles employment law matters for which I will be referring clients over."
"Matt and I worked together while we wore an Air Force uniform as JAGs when we were both on active duty, and I also went up against him after he joined the private sector. In addition to us sharing the same last name (unrelated), I have always enjoyed working with Matt because of his reasonableness and ability to stay cool under pressure. It makes for a great recipe to achieve the goals of his clients, and he has my endorsement!"
