Exceptional Attorney

Mr. Jackson had handled a previous case for us, so when I was injured at work there was only one person to call Matt Jackson. He was always prompt in answering any questions or concerns I had in a very professional manor. I would highly recommend Mr. Jackson to represent anyone in need of a great Attorney.

Great Attorney

I went to Joye Law Firm because I was injured on my job, Mr. Jackson was assigned as my Workman Comprehensation Attorney. He was extremely knowledgeable about my claim, he explained everything I would experience in the process of my case. He treated me like family and I felted so much better about my case after I spoke with him. He made sure I stayed updated about what he was doing to progress my case. I recommend Mr. Jackson to all my family and friends and others to handle their Workman Comprehensation Cases. I am extremely pleased with how Mr. Jackson has handled my case.

Remarkable attorney and an even more remarkable person

I needed help dealing with the insurance company after I was hurt. Mr. Jackson took a look at my case and told me, "I have never seen a case get so messed up so fast. I am very happy to help you." He has been there with me every step through this. It has been a very long battle and when things are dark and the pain is intense he provides support not only to me but to my family who is taking the emotional brunt of caring for me. I don't think that I would have been able to deal with all the games and roadblocks that the insurance company has put in my way, if it weren't for the skill of this brilliant attorney. I am very proud to call this wonderful man my friend, he has helped me knowing there would not be a huge financial settlement to my case. He has fought so hard for me as if he were going to making millions off my case when that certainly is not going to be the outcome. I would happily recommend Mr. Jackson and have. It is my pleasure to write a review for someone who has worked so hard to help me with very little financial reward.

An amazing attorney for Worker's Compensation claims

I came to Matt after being injured in a rollover accident at work. The insurance company had prematurely ended my benefits, and I was in no condition to work. Matt fought to get my benefits restored, and was able to successfully negotiate that. He also fought to make sure I got the treatment I needed, and kept in constant communication to keep me informed on how things were progressing. He answered all my questions and explained things to me in ways that I could understand. In the end, he was able to help me attain an agreeable settlement. Most of all though, the main reason I recommend him is that from the very start, you could tell he really cares.
