Phenomenally Grateful

From the very beginning Matt and I’m his team were straight forward and extremely professional. This was first (and hopefully last) run in with the law so I had no idea what to expect. They ensured I was informed with what I needed to know and kept me from allowing mind to spiral. I strongly recom...mend Matt Silva to anyone in need of his services!

The Man for the Job

I was previously represented by another attorney and I felt the entire time he was pointing me toward the least amount of work on his end possible. Mr. Silva was found by my family through research, and I can wholeheartedly say it was well worth the switch. The entire time Mr. Silva was up front ab...out everything and he went into my case saying he wanted to win the case, being honest and professional about every possible contingency. Everywhere I searched he was well regarded and he did what was said would never get done in Onslow County. All in all, I would recommend his representation through sheer experience and professionalism alone.

I am assuming that we won the case and because you seem satisfied with the outcome. Thank you very much for choosing us! Your review means a lot to me as this is one of the ways people find me.

Professional Criminal Lawyer

It gives me great pleasure to write a review today for Matthew Silva's law firm. I highly recommend this law firm without hesitation! If you are looking for a top notch highly successful professional criminal lawyer to represent you, look no further. I hired Matthew Silva's law firm to represent me ...after receiving numerous felony charges. This was my first time in the criminal justice arena and I was totally clueless. My sister asked me if it would be alright for her to step in and help me find a successful criminal lawyer. I said yes please help me find the best criminal lawyer you can. My sister immediately started making calls to various criminal law firms, and one of the calls was to one of the best criminal lawyers one could hire in Craven County. However, they informed my sister that they could not help me because the case was in another county that they did not represent. Although when my sister asked for a criminal lawyer just a successful as the best in town. They immediately informed my sister to give Matthew Silva’s law office a call, they gave him raving reviews for any criminal representation within Duplin, Jones, Onslow and Sampson counties. I am so thankful my sister jumped right in to help me find the best criminal lawyer available. I cannot say enough about Matthew Silva and his staff. Mr. Silva went above and beyond the call of duty. Matthew Silva was direct, open and honest in sharing all of my options of what I was facing in the near future. Mr. Silva helped me tremendously by walking me through the entire process from the beginning to the end. My end results was a successful outcome they reduced and dropped my felony charges. I cannot say enough about Mr. Silva and his entire staff they were friendly, supportive and professional. My family and I are extremely grateful in finding a wonderful professional honest lawyer! Thank you Mr. Silva for all of your hard work and guidance in helping me and my family through this difficult time! My new moto in life is you cannot put a price on freedom!

Dennis: Thank you so much for the kind words and the gifts! I enjoyed working with you and your family. I know that this was a very stressful situation for all of you and the delay of COVID-19 didn't help. Fortunately, you can put this whole situation behind you. I wish you and your family all the best in your future endeavors.

Twice very pleased with Matthew Silva's services

Very happy with the communications and professionalism by everyone on the Silva team. Used their services to close on a realestate closing last fall which was very smooth and efficient throughout the entire process. Most recently a traffic violation that we found very confusing and could not wo...rk out ourselves needed the professional services of Matthew Silva (and team). Many thanks for helping us through both life events. Will certainly be calling again if we are in need of legal services.
