Amazing Lawyer and Person

I had seen Mr. Silva in court previous to my own case and He really showed passion but overall concern for his client (My best-friend). I was involved in an accident and given 7 different charges including a Felony hit and run. The events were nothing like the officer at the scene had painted and tha...nks to Mr Silva who not only defended me but did so while I was away ( I live In MA) , I was only given fines. He was very understanding about my economic situation and worked a plan with me that allowed the already horrible situation go a lot smoother. Mr. Silva is very professional and will go the extra mile to seek justice for you. Having him represent Me is one thing I will never regret.

Mr. Lopez: thank you for the positive review! I know this case seemed to drag on forever but I think the result was worth the wait. I hope you are able to move on with your life and put this terrible situation behind you. If you ever need anything, or any of your USMC brethren, make sure to give me a call.

Superior Performance

While facing a situation, my fear was almost crippling. Matt calmly explained the everything and laid out our plan. I was instantly relieved, as what seemed like a dire situation was now manageable. His "bedside manner" turned the tide, and got me thinking and acting correctly. I can't put a price on... the mental relief and strength he provided. Don't hesitate, this is the advocate for you!

Excellent Representative

Mr. Silva met with my husband and me on a Saturday morning, and by Wednesday he called to tell me my case had been dismissed in my favor. Due to the delicate nature of the case, I had specific requests that he fully understood, and, had it been necessary, he explained how he could go about fulfillin...g those requests. It turned out he didn't need to, but he was prepared! I am extremely grateful to Mr. Silva, and should I ever require representation again, I will definitely be calling him.

An amazing attorney!

He actually accomplished MORE for me than he originally anticipated. I am so glad that I chose him, and would again if ever needed. I will recommend Mr. Silva 100% of the time to anyone in need of an attorney.

BEST DWI ATTORNEY!!!

I was involved in a hit and run accident. The accident was not my fault at all but I did get charged with a DWI. I had went to one attorney who had wanted me to plea guilty. I had passed every single field sobriety test that the officer had given me and it was stated that I was not at fault in the ac...cident on the police report. So I felt like there was no need for me to plea guilty of a DWI. Which I am so glad that I didn't because Attorney Matthew Silva was able to get my case dismissed entirely. He did an awesome job. He came prepared and was very knowledgeable.
