Matthew DeBoard

My 93 year old hearing impaired mother was the victim of a Bank fraud scheme. She was swindled out of over $259,000 and her bank Fifth and a Third failed to protect her. Research on the internet led us to Matt Deboard as he had been successful in recovering losses for the victim in a simil...ar case . In our initial consultation my mother made it clear that she had deceived the bank about the reason for her bank wires and cash withdrawals. This was all part of the brainwashing scheme by the fraudsters. After giving Matt a retainer which he estimated would “get us all the way to court” we waited, and waited. For months there was no activity or accountability. Anytime I called or emailed for a status and received a response that was billable legal time and charged against the retainer. Almost a year later Matt finally wrote one letter. The bank denied responsibility and he recommended we give up. He had charged us thousands of dollars for his time. My mother was so devastated and sickened by this whole process that she had a series of strokes and then passed away in January of 2024.

From the very beginning, Matt DeBoard was friendly and easy to work with. Unlike other attorneys, he responded to my phone calls and emails and patiently explained complicated legal matters in layman’s terms, without charging unreasonable fees. He proved to be so effective during a recent estate pro...ceeding involving a very acrimonious sibling, that at the end of the day, the opposing attorney actually pulled me aside and thanked me for bringing Attorney DeBoard to the table. I knew right then I had an attorney for life!

Matt was instrumental in helping me negotiate a number of complicated commercial disputes. He stepped-in and handled everything from start to finish. It's hard to explain the way he immersed himself in understanding the problems, attacking them from different angles to come up with great solutions. I...'m forever indebted to him for saving me literally hundreds of thousands of dollars, and helping me get my business over the hump after the Great Recession. His efforts and the outcome exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend Matt for any legal problem.

Matt is thoughtful, honest, diligent and supportive. His continued communication helped me to feel that I was in good hands and with his guidance, I was able to get more out of my transaction than if I'd braved it alone. I have worked with Matt for several years and his consistency and professionalis...m is always at the forefront. I would recommend this attorney without hesitation.
