Great Lawyer

I was arrested for my a DUI in August of 2015. Matt was recommended to me by a good friend who is also in the legal industry. From the very beginning Matt managed my expectations so that I knew what to expect and when. There were no surprise costs, no problems getting him to respond timely to my ques...tions, no problems with him keeping me informed, and no problems showing up to court dates. All of which I know are common problems people have when retaining a DUI lawyer. Inside the court house, many people seemed to know him as well as genuinely like him. Which as you should know, that is great to have with your lawyer. To this point, I talked to several people who had the exact same arrest conditions as me, yet did not get treated as nicely I was (i.e. fewer community service hours, no probation, smooth plea-down to reckless process, etc...). Given that his retainer is comparable to other good DUI lawyers, I strongly recommend him.

Thank you, Marc. Very kind words. Reductions of charges is never easy, and i'm glad your case worked out great.

Phenomenal Lawyer

Mr. Hirsch is a great lawyer. Was in one really really REALLY bad jam and he got me out of it basically unscathed. I would recommend him 100% to everyone I know. Great man and very down to earth. Definitely willing to go that extra mile to help you anyway he can.

Excellent attorney definitely recommend to peers

Me and Mr. Hirsch had a long, long case but rest assured every step of the way he kept me well informed, he believed me when nobody else did not. He worked very hard through this nebulous case. I would have definitely chose this attorney ten times over. He is very determined and boy is he intelligent.... Mr. Hirsch made me and my family extremely satisfied. Even when the case was a little bumpy he made me feel comfortable and I had absolutely no worries. I knew that he would deliver. Excellent attorney with a extreme hunger for discovery. Mr. Hirsch was extremely aggressive through the entire case (nearly 14 months). I very much recommend Mr. Hirsch.

Thank you for your kind word, Guled. It was a hard fought case, and it certainly helped that we had a good assistant district attorney who was more interested in getting to the truth than just seeing you prosecuted. Good luck to you, and if you know anyone who needs my help in the future, you always know where to find me. -- Matt Hirsch

Excellent and Proffesional Attorney

Mr. Hirsch went out of his way to take my case over the holiday season and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of a defense lawyer. He made sure to keep me informed with updates to my case and respond to my questions and concerns quickly. He was also able to attain the best possible outcom...e for my case, which I honestly believe would not have been the case had I gone with a different lawyer. Again, I highly recommend Mr. Hirsch as he has taken great care of me and his other clients.

Thank you for the kind words, Doug. It's always great when we get cases dismissed. This never should've happened to you and i'm glad the prosecutor agreed with me. Be careful and if you know anyone who needs my help, i'm always available. -- Matt Hirsch

A lawyer who is reliable and responsive

Matt is a very knowledgeable lawyer. He was the perfect choice for me. He is professional and very efficient. He will answer your questions and take your calls. He knows what he is doing and is your best advocates to help you get what you need. The nr. 1 thing that made me call him again afte...r another unfortunate encounter with the police. Is that he responses very quickly. He is prompt to respond and effective in his approach. He has a very good report with the prosecutors and is very connected and respected. He will make sure that everything gets done. I give Matt my information, I hand over all the paperwork he requests, and he makes a checklist for you, and his next step is to take care of it. He does his part and you have to do your part. It is very reassuring to know that you have a competent lawyer on your side (doing what he knows best) is essential. It gives you peace of mind. Whatever it is you are facing, don't try to do it on your own. Matt Hirsch is reasonably priced and well worth the cost. Matt did an excellent job for me. I have recommended him to 2 of my friends, who were equally satisfied.
