Yes recommend

I hired Matt for my son who was erroneously arrested for a weapons charge when actually he was just trying to sell his work tools. This misconception tore our family apart. I found Matt to be very knowledgeable and truthful. He won the case and had the charges dropped. I would definitely recommend.... He is a caring compassionate Christian man, (who sometimes isn’t good about returning phone calls).

Matt shows up and handles situations better than I thought possible!!

I met Matt 10 years ago after getting sober, when I needed help with multiple lingering speeding ticket in multiple counties. The courts would not allow me to ‘just pay them off’ and he was the only attorney who responded to me for help. He replied “I can help you” and he did. Since then, has helped ...me multiple times. Each time I have called, he has shown up and he has handled my situations better than I expected. Words to describe Matt: Diligent, ethical, knowledgeable, incredible patience, skilled, reliable, professional; I could go on and on, with nothing negative to say. He is genuinely a good man, with a good reputation and relationships with his fellow attorneys, judges and DA’s that reflect in his work. My last issue was the worst and very difficult to deal with. Not one time did Matt judge me. He showed up and handled the situations, once again better than I thought possible. I am forever grateful to Matt Faucette. You will be too!

One of the best lawyers out there

This man is an absolute life saver! I was dealing with two misdemeanor charges and could've faced 4 months in jail for crimes I never committed. Had I been convicted, I would have lost everything to my name despite only being misdemeanors. A day after I bonded out, Matt was on the phone with me ready... to assist me and help clear my name. After 7 months of absolute hell in district court, he finally got all of my charges dismissed and is now working on getting my record expunged. I hope I never need to hire an attorney ever again, but if I ever have to, it will definitely be Matt.

He’s the one you should call

Mr.Faucette called me right away, outlined some basic aspects of my case, and handled everything for me. At times he was a little unresponsive to emails, but if I texted: he would always get back to me within hours, even late at night. He has tremendous legal knowledge and is eloquent in the courtroo...m. He got me the exact result I wanted in my case and he did it ethically, without resorting to gimmicks.

Outstanding attorney!

I hired Matt Faucette as my offense attorney in February 2022. From the very beginning, Matt took his time talking with me, before even being hired, explaining the situation with my case and what he felt he could help me with. Not only was he present for any and all questions, any time day or night..., but he was at all hearings. My case was finally settled in my favor thanks to Matt!! I assured him that after finding a courteous, kind, professional, and outstanding representation such as himself, that he’d be my first call if I ever needed him again! Thank you so much Matt and I hope I never have to call on you, but if I do, I feel I’m in the best hands!
