Professional & Driven!

We could not be more happy about the performance of Rachel, my son's attorney, who handled his case. She fought hard for him and went beyond the call for him. She is truly passionate about what she does and put her heart into fighting for justice for my son. The results were better than what we ex...pected from the court and it was only due to Rachel's hard work and dedication as a professional attorney.

Exceeded my expectations

Rachel exceeded my expectations with my case. With her legal expertise and experience my case was dropped within a month after my arrest. Rachel and her firm are very professional, kind, understanding and went over all possible options I was facing with the two charges against me. She went to work ri...ght away and fought for the best outcome with my case. I recommend Rachel to anyone who finds themself in need of a great criminal defense attorney.

She's a blessing to me and my family!!!

I want to start off by saying Rachel Mattie is one of the best there is and she was by my side the hole time...when I wanted to give up she made sure I understood what was going to happen...I wanted to plea to a 2nd degree felony and they wanted to give me 18 years on probation...I was under so much ...stress and was not sleeping at night...I never been though anything like this and I was so scared that I was going to lose my kids I would cry everytime we would talk because I was going through this by myself but she made sure she will be by my side...and that she was every step of the way...March 8, 2017 I had court and they was trying to get me to take the plea but that day I didn't, the next day she had a deposition with DCF, She made sure she called me to say they might drop all charges because they don't have enough evidence against me, that made me feel at like I had a chance...March 9 2017 she called me to say that all my charges was dropped....I can't say thank you enough Rachel Mattie you are the best in my eyes....May god continue to bless you so you can continue to help others...you are my angel....

You want this woman to represent you, I promise: Rachel Mattie, Esquire

l am writing to commend the services of Rachel Mattie, Esq to any who need legal help from a non-judgmental, caring, respectful, effective, strategic and winning attorney. I speak from experience. Here is an excerpt of a letter I wrote to her bosses: "Recently I have had the pleasure of work...ing Rachel Mattie. She represented Lady Justice and your office with the utmost efficiency, courtesy and professionalism. When I first realized that I would need public services I had some concerns: principally due to the age of the average public defender and perceived relative inexperience. Boy, was I wrong in her case. I have no idea how long she has served in your office. Still, I cannot imagine any lawyer more certain of strategy; more aware of nuance, ramifications of their decisions; more compassionate or more non-prejudiced than either of these attorneys. From the minute I met Rachel I knew I was in competent hands. She guided me through every step of our case and at no point did I feel less than safe, although a potentially messy future lay in the balance. She was firm in pointing out the possibilities of fate, but equally hopeful and positive as to a fair result. As it happens she was right in their assessment and we have been successful in resolving my case. Before I leave her care, I felt it important to let you know of her good work. Frankly, no matter the result I would have written this. As a citizen used to contributing to society as opposed to detracting from it, the entire process has been surreal. I come away assured that our criminal justice system is in good hands, at least in your office. Please make sure she is commended, acknowledged, rewarded and thanked.*
