Professional and Focused- Hardworking and gets the job done right the first time. The best lawyer you can find!

Matt doesn't come across like most lawyers I have met. From the beginning of my legal needs, he takes his time with the details and really gets to know every aspect of a case. He asks questions clearly so he understands and it's almost like he puts himself in your own shoes. He is very much a stra...ight shooter, which I appreciate. Matt is a professional, but he is also a person that you'll feel is a friend. When you choose him, you choose more than legal counsel; you choose a real advocate you can keep coming to. Thank you Matt for all your hard work, and for helping me through one of the most difficult times of my life. You made the transition easier and allowed me to focus on more important things.

Great Attorney!

Matthew has handled multiple cases for me over the years, and he has always defended my interests relentlessly. He and his team also provide personal, compassionate service, which is important when you're going through a divorce or custody fight.

A phenomenal attorney! Five stars definitely!

Mr. Michaud was a huge help during my divorce. He took the time to explain the process to me, and was very patient and professional when I was under a lot of stress. I almost lost everything I had, but I found him online and he saved me. I could not ask for a better result in my case!!!

Great Attorney!

Honestly, I didn’t start out with Matt. The first attorney I had wasn’t available when I needed him, so Matt was referred to me. Matt is one of those people that has a calming energy and sincerely cares about his clients. He stepped up during a very stressful TPO hearing and I felt he had my back the... entire time. His counsel was effective and his recommendations were sound. Matt is mindful of being a good steward of your money as well. He is currently representing me and my adult son navigate a subpoena process. Honestly, I would never have imagined I would have to be immersed in this much family law. Unfortunately, that is the situation right now. If my family and I have to go through this, I am grateful to have Matt on my team. Worth every penny.

Our experience

We hired Matt to help us get a loan mod on our home. At the time that was what he did in private practice. We also followed his advice and let him set up a LLC to try and generate income to make our mortage payments. Lost our home and a huge amount of money. Matthew committed himself to helpibg us r...egain the money. After we had to move to another state and live with family, Matt blocked our number, stopped responding to emails and refused to acknowledge messages left and the firm he now works for. There is no way we could recomend him.

Michael, I represented you more than six years ago. At the time, I provided my legal recommendation based upon your legal and financial situation. Please also know your comments regarding any apparent unresponsiveness on my part are completely inaccurate. Unfortunately, this forum does not allow me to discuss any particulars of your case. I am available to discuss this further with you off line if you’d like. I look forward to hearing from you – 770-426-1148
