"I recently met Matt through a mutual friend and ended up retaining his firm to probate the estate of my brother-in-law following his sudden and tragic death. Being largely unfamiliar with the ins and outs of probate matters, Matt walked me through the process, answered all of my questions and promptly returned phone calls and emails. What impressed me the most, however, was Matt's truly sincere condolences offered to the family of a fallen hero (my brother-in-law was a Captain with the Jacksonville Fire Department) and his care in ensuring that my brother-in-law was properly addressed in all correspondence between us (i.e. Matt addressed the estate as the Estate of Captain _______ instead of just using his name). That attention to detail genuinely impressed me and Matt has done a fine job handling such a sensitive situation and during an awful time for my family. I highly and without reservation recommend Matt for the handling of any legal matters."
