Matthew Allen Tolley

I cannot say enough good things about Matthew Tolley. From the very beginning, he made me feel like he genuinely understood the situation, listened to my concerns, and knew exactly how to advocate for my daughter and me. Matthew represented me during a very stressful protective order case, and I w...as incredibly impressed with the way he handled every step of the process. He was prepared, confident, strategic, and truly seemed to be thinking several steps ahead at all times. At our final hearing, he was able to negotiate a consent order that addressed many of the concerns that mattered most to me, including provisions I honestly wasn’t sure we would be able to get. I left court feeling like my daughter was more protected and that I had someone in my corner who truly knew what he was doing. One of the things that meant the most to me was the way Matthew treated my daughter throughout the process. She was understandably very nervous and emotional, and he was incredibly kind and patient with her. He spoke to her in a way that was age appropriate, made her feel comfortable, and gave her the space to advocate for herself. Most importantly, she felt heard by him. As a parent, there is really no way to overstate how much that meant to me. Matthew never made me feel like I was just another case. He listened, took my concerns seriously, answered my questions, and helped me navigate an extremely emotional situation while still keeping the focus on what was most important. I am incredibly grateful for the work he has already done for my family, and there was no question that I wanted him to continue representing me as we move forward with custody. I have complete confidence in him and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone needing a family law attorney. I truly cannot thank him enough.
