Awesome Attorney...Couldn't ask for more

I would like to extend my sincere appreciation for the outstanding service provided by Mr. Matthew Silva. Its not often that one can find a lawyer that puts so much time, effort, and self into a case. Even when we thought the battle was over, you continued to fight to prove innocence. Without your de...termination and persistence for justice, who knows where this case would have landed. His professionalism, honesty, and integrity is outstanding. We are so very fortunate for the referral to Silva and Sweet. You surpassed all of our expectations. We feel so blessed. Thank you!

Anthony, thank you for your service to our great country. I have never seen so many blessings come from a single case. I wish nothing but the best for you and your family. I hope that you go far in the USMC, and I wish you the very best in all your future endeavors. Keep in touch no matter where you go.

Honest Attorney

Great honest attorney that really brings justice for his clients. I put my entire career with the USMC into Mr. Silva's hands to prove my innocence and he made sure that he did just that! We had so much to lose and he gave me such peace of mind throughout this entire case period. He goes above and be...yond for his clients and I don't think I could have gotten a better outcome of my whole situation. After being referred to him by several other people he has a great reputation and I would use him again for any other legal matters. Thanks Matt YOU ROCK!!

I am very happy your case worked out. There isn't enough information here for me to identify you, but I want you to know that I appreciate your business (no need to respond with identifying information, in fact, please do not do that). I am very happy that your case worked out and I am very happy that we were able to establish your innocence. Thank you for the very gracious compliments. Take care and please come see us if you ever need anything!

Above and Beyond!

One of the silver linings in what has been a very dismal time has proven to be Matthew SIlva of Silva & Sweet! His professional, straight forward demeanor set me at ease immediately. His knowledge of the law and the legal system took what I saw as a hopeless case and turned it into an outcome beyon...d what I could have hoped for! He even saved me money! That is amazing! I would highly recommend Mr. Silva to anyone. His office staff is courteous and professional. The attention they give to each client is excellent. This is a law firm that maintains integrity, especially that of the client! Thank Mr. Silva! Thank you Silva & Sweet!

Just finished a consultation.

It is a Sunday and I am meeting with Mr. Silva for the first time. I was surprised that he would be willing to meet on his days off. My situation is private, but he knows what he is talking about. He showed me how he is going to get what I want and explained the risks involved. I know it is early... in the game, but he showed me the law and explained how we are going to proceed. In fact, I am convinced that my money is well spent. I would have paid him double and I told him that. All he asked was that I log onto this website and give an hones review of his services.

Straightforward

From the start, I felt very confident in having Mr. Silva represent me. He is straightforward and i appreciated that. He ended up keeping me out of what could have been a huge mess. I was referred by a friend who was actually prosecuted by Mr Silva when he was a DA. He definitely knows his stuff. I'...m gonna make him my go to man from now on if i need legal help.
