Matthew James Thomas

I reached out to Mr. Matthew Thomas a year ago for a security clearance issue and I am beyond thankful for his time, professionalism, confidence, and experience. He took the time to listen to every detail and break down every strategy, and that open line of communication left me feeling involved and ...uplifted. Although my case ended being a year long process, I couldn't have asked for a better outcome and Mr. Thomas was there every step of the way. For anyone dealing with security clearance issues specifically, I highly recommend reaching out. I will forever be grateful for Mr. Thomas and his work.

I worked with Mr. Thomas in 2024 on a security clearance case. I spoke with a few different attorneys, and one of the things that stood out to me (and led me to working with him) was that Mr. Thomas was generous with his time and knowledge even in my initial phone call with me. He's very experienced ...with the clearance and appeal processes and was great at explaining (and executing) how to navigate them. He was professional, responsive, and respectful, making him easy to work with. I sincerely appreciate his work during what was an extremely stressful time for me and would highly recommend him.

I want to thank Mr. Thomas for his professionalism and genuine help he provided for my son. I live in Texas and as I learned of the ongoing problems my son was going through in this place I wanted to believe he was going to be alright, simply because I always thought that being in a military base me...ant to be in a safe environment and therefore my son couldn't get hurt by the same people he was training with to become one of the best. That is until he was beat up and had to have surgery due to the injuries he sustained. My son started to have ptsd episodes and after a while he received some help with this, that is until all of a sudden he was charged with many counts including resistance and was put on the brig. I was afraid for my son's wellbeing and for what his future will bring if he was charged and how many years they would give him. We decided to look for a Military attorney and decided that Mr. Thomas was the best option. He immediately contacted me, and didn't took my money immediately, he said he'll first speak with my son to see if he'll hire him and we'll go from there. Mr. Thomas explained the situation in a way that I could understand and I always felt so confident and assured of his words. Mr. Thomas will contact me if there was any updates and even after the court martial Mr. Thomas called me to update me on the great news that my son was free to go and he had the best outcome due to the complication of his case. We're very happy with Mr. Thomas representation and I definitely recommend to anyone that is going through a hard situation. He is honest, respectful, experienced, effective and trustworthy. Mr. Thomas is a fine man. Thank you again for your representation.

Mr. Thomas is the definition of a true professional. I was wrongfully accused of sexual assault earlier in the year. Like many in my position I was anxious and depressed due to the historic nature of cases like mine. I knew from the first 10 minutes of my initial consultation that this man was going ...to be my lawyer. I called 13 different lawyers who specialized in military law and none of them gave me the confidence like Mr. Thomas. His compassion and professional attitude truly helped guide me during these very difficult times. He fights from the front and is extremely proactive. The on base defense attorney told me “ I’m like a public defendant I got many cases I can not really help you until you get charged and proceed to court martial”. I called Mr. Thomas at 3am my time and he answered…. I believe that phone call changed my life. We had weekly/monthly phone calls detailing where we were at and where we were going. He was always one phone call away. I can not thank him enough for what he has done for my family and I. I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Thomas to anyone seeking legal guidance.

At first, I was not sure what was going to happen to me and my future when I was accused of sexual assault. Due to the allegation, I was also dealing with lots of anxiety and depression. After almost no time at all working with Mr. Thomas, I started to feel much more at ease with my situation knowin...g the work that he was putting in. I was charged with an Article 120, UCMJ offense after being falsely accused of sexual assault. In today’s society, those kinds of accusations carry an extremely huge weight and tend to lean more in the favor of the accuser. Despite my situation, Mr. Thomas tirelessly and meticulously combed through all of the facts of the case and the discovery in order to build up a defense. On top of that Mr. Thomas took the time to explain the important facts of my case, as well as, the entire court martial process and possibilities of what could happen. More importantly, he did so in a way that me having no legal background could easily understand. Mr. Thomas was also able to answer any possible question that I could come up with. When the date of the court-martial trial came, Mr. Thomas was more than prepared and was able to efficiently dismantle the prosecution’s arguments so well utilizing the facts and cross examination he had the prosecutors franticly looking through their papers and even slapping their foreheads. After not even thirty minutes in the deliberation room, the jury came back with their decision and thanks to Mr. Thomas I was able to get a full acquittal and be found not guilty. I was able to get my life back I was able to sleep again thanks to his diligent and constant hard work.
