Responsive & Professional

My wife was in an accident. Injury to her, getting the car fixed, trying to deal with the ins co , and working was all too much to handle. I handed it over to Matt and he's done a great job. He keeps us informed as to what is going on, and answers our questions promptly. I do recommend his services... to anyone.

Good Assistance

I was referred to Matt by a friend and he really assisted me well with getting resolution for me and my son after our car accident in Oct 2014. He was responsive to my calls, he kept me abreast of progress regarding my case, and he worked to get me the best settlement. I would recommend him to other...s, he is engaging, flexible, and invested in getting his client(s) the best possible settlement.

Personal Injury Case

I hired Matt to represent me in a personal injury case for an auto accident. He was very clear and concise with how the process worked. Matt paid close attention to the details and went the extra mile for me. I highly recommend him.

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.
