William Matos Substandard Attorney

Don't worry everyone. I'm not going to give up on getting this so-called attorney ' s license to practice law in Georgia reviewed and suspended.. First get him barred from representing anyone who has him as a public defender. Don't forget about about what happened to you because of him. I won't .D...on't let him get away with his incompetence..The Georgia Public Defender Standards Counsel will be under investigation by the State House of Representatives. They are Just as responsible for his actions William Matos has affected the lives of too many "OF US' and our families. I need your help and testimonies.Contact your State Representative. I did and I got the Ball rolling. Don't Give Up. STOP this guy from working in the Public Defenders Office and go back to representing Illegals.That why he contracts them. It's guaranteed money for every case he gets . Two hundred or so at any given time

Worst ineffective counsel in a criminal case

Atty Matos is an unreliable ineffective communicator ever defense counsel with my nephew criminal case in Clayton County Judicial System. My nephew has been incarcerated for at total of 32 months to the date before that and the pandemic it was nine months and Matos did nothing to counsel or talk to m...y nephew until he was locked up for 20 months And-by this time the pandemic was in full blown so no court dockets for trial. Matos has been trying to get my nephew to make a plea instead of trying the case. That is how all these public defense lawyers are. They don’t know how to try a case these days and especially for black kids. All the asking their clients to do a plea and no jail time served just want him in jail for 31 months and not count against his time to do in prison for nothing sounds like slavery in the prison plantation again, blacks doing time filling up these prisons for crimes that do not cause time in prison, theft by taking this crime is no prison time however if you black, yes. Matos told me not to contact him again so I informed my nephew and so my nephew tried to communicate with Matos since June2021 and to this date Nov3rd 2021 no communication. This attorney Matos, a public Defender counsel has not fulfilled his obligation to his client my nephew at all bc he has been locked up with a trial date on any docket in Clayton county judicial system. I can see why black kids are so negative about this corrupted judicial system that humans are doing to humans. It’s not the system,it’s people in these positions that are corrupted. Try my nephew case and stop informing him to plea we can’t afford to get him out of jail on bond which is$30,000.00 and we need to pay $3500.00 to a bonding company. We own property however one other relative won’t sign to get him release however Matos should place him on a docket for trial so he can plea guilty for one case
