Amazing Experience

Right off the back, I entered the office of Attorney Matthews and we began to create a genuine connection. His amount of professionalism and care for his clients is unmatched. The first conversation is centered around your well-being which generated great comfort for me. I could tell Attorney Ma...tthews is a man that steps in wisdom and abides by integrity. This explains why he is respected highly in the courtroom and by his clients. If you are still searching for a well equipped attorney, look no further! Attorney Matthews exceeds all expectations. '

Not Guilty on ALL charges

Mr. Matthews represented me on a case I was just acquitted of TODAY. I was charged with Armed Robbery, 2 Counts of Aggravated Assault. 2 counts of Possession of a firearm during commission of a felony. We took it to trail and beat ALL CHARGES. I would recommend Mr. Matthews to anybody. He took his ti...me, discussed my case with me thoroughly and came up with an impeccable defense. Mr. Matthews is one of, if not the BEST attornies I have ever witnessed. I couldn't have chose a better man to defend me!

Dr.

I was arrested for a Felony charge of Pos/Intent (3lb). I then retained Mr. Matthews as my lawyer, within 2 court dates, Mr Matthews was able to convince the Dea to reIease the case under Pre Trial Intervention. I Will Have to Complete (PTI) Drug Courses for 12 weeks and will walk away with no Felony...'s. Mr Matthewes is a Great Lawyer

Awesome job

Mr. Matthews was not only my lawyer he became someone I was able to trust. With his extensive knowledge of the law he was always straightforward with me letting me know the good, bad and the ugly. And with said knowledge he was able to turn my felony case with time served (20yrs) to no time served. H...e's a wonderful attorney and person to have in your corner. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
