Matthew Robert Arnold

I am so grateful for Matt Arnold and his team. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever be going through a divorce. After almost 22 years of marriage that is exactly what I was doing and I was a complete mess. At the consultation Matt was straight forward and painted an accurate picture... of what to expect. From the hiring of Matt to our final day in court was a 5 1/2 year process. Throughout the entire process Matt and Joanna, his paralegal, were amazing. Never...ever did I feel unimportant. Whenever they were working with me I felt like their only client. I had some less than stellar moments and every time they would kindly and graciously help me get back on track and refocused on the end goal. We had several court dates throughout this divorce process. Every time Matt was completely prepared. He is formidable. He doesn't get flustered or caught off guard. He has a grasp and understanding of the law that is, in my honest opinion, unmatched. He and his team leave no stone unturned. They do absolutely everything they possible can to achieve your absolute best outcome. The divorce process most likely will take longer than you want and cost more than you want. The lawyer you hire to carry you over the "finish line" holds your future in their hands. It is a decision that will have a ripple effect on the rest of your days. You want those hands to be strong, capable, tireless, genuine, knowledgeable, determined, and willing to fight for you. Those hands belong to Matt Arnold. That may sound "corny" as you read my review. I am emotional as I write it. I honestly and whole heartedly mean every word. This mid 50s ish old woman who was heart broken and fearful could not be more grateful for Matt Arnold and his team. I know, beyond a shadow of a doubt, I was in very good capable hands and I am eternally grateful . Matt Arnold is who you want representing you.

Because of the hard work from Mr. Arnold and the professionalism of his staff they were able to protect my interest in a very difficult divorce case. i would highly recommend Mr. Arnold in any divorce case. i found it very easy to communicate with Mr. Arnold. If Mr. Arnold was not available, there... was always someone to answer all my concerns.

If you are in the process of any personal conflict or issue it will be the most emotional, personal and draining experience in your life. After 17 months and a large sum of money spent with another law firm. I felt frustrated, disheartened and aggravated. I was so far in, or so I thought, I didn’t... want to “throw in the towel” with my current attorney. But at the same time, I knew something had to be done. I was at the point of walking away without anything that I had worked so hard to obtain for me and my children. I met and consulted with Mr. Matt Arnold on two occasions, at the urging of my friend that had hired his firm in the past. I finally made the decision to “jump ship” and hire Mr. Arnold as my legal counsel. I discussed with Matt what MY goals were and the outcome I wanted. He did not try to sway my thoughts, but did advise me of the possible outcome and set realistic expectations. He and his staff ACTUALLY answer your phone calls and emails in a very prompt and professional manner. They are very experienced in family law, familiar with every aspect and can advise you the best possible scenario or the course you should pursue. Anastasia, Mr. Arnold’s co-counsel was on the phone with me after hours to discuss and plan an upcoming deposition and mediation. Both took place the same day and his office had a very short window to be prepared. Matt was more than ready and the outcome was more than I anticipated. Within four – yes four (4) – Weeks of retaining Matt’s firm my case was settled. He negotiated on my behalf and exceeded my expectations. I have to say that Matt and his staff are intelligent, experienced and a group of very personable professionals that work for You. He wants things settled quickly and in a timely manner. He does not believe in waiting months or even years to achieve your goal. He is honest and sets expectations from day one. He will not “sugar coat” anything and does not beat around the bush. It is my suggestion that you don’t use your hard earned money on legal counsel that will only waste your time for billable hours. Consult with Matt first.

Matt Arnold and his paralegal Joanna were fantastic to work with. Mr. Arnold was easy to talk to, and very detailed in his work. He didn't leave any stone unturned throughout my very complex divorce case, and ultimately got us the best possible outcome imaginable in a very timely manner. He and Joann...a were very responsive, and answered all of my questions in great detail. I wouldn't have recieved the outcome I did without them, and I would recommend Mr Arnold and his team to anyone!

I worked with Matt on a custody issue recently. I am a father. In a custody case there is a ton of emotion, and other issues going on, so having a lawyer who can keep you informed, and keep a level head is imperative. My first session in court was nerve racking. Did I have enough information? Did ...I do everything I could do? Did this guy whose representing me even care about how much this case means to me? You don't know if your lawyer is going to get up and just get destroyed or what. After watching Matt do his "thing" the first and second meeting in court, I knew I had hired the right guy. Over time Matt had gained my confidence and trust, because he proved over and over that he knew where my case was at, had sound advice, and helped keep me calm. I cannot stress how important this is in a custody case. Then yesterday, it was suddenly over. I was whole. As I reflected that night, after putting my son to bed, on the fact that I was finally through this storm, as I went though all the different possible endings this case could have had, it occurred to me that my case could not have ended any better, for everyone involved, but most importantly for our child. I do not think it would have ended this way with any other lawyer. He ended the case, upon reflection, *better* than the best case scenario I had held in my head for so long. Matt, and Bree and Johanna were always willing to answer my question, always able to empathize, and always on top of their game. I believe anyone who retains Matt can rest assured that as long as you *follow his advice*, give him all the facts, and do your part, he will give you the best possible outcome for your situation as well. I cannot thank the staff at A&S enough for everything you did for my child and for myself.
