The best in his practice of Law

In the Book of Proverbs, it states that the innocent speak first, that is until the cross examination begins. God placed Matthew Konecky’s services when I needed it. He is professional, courteous, diligent and knowledgeable in his practice of law. Refreshingly and honestly transparent. If you need re...presentation in a court of law, you would like to have him next to you and not as the opposing counsel. If you’re in need of a civil/ criminal matter representation, do not hire anyone else. Hire Matthew Konecky, you won’t regret it.

Best in Town!

Mr. Konecky represented my son as a Criminal Defense Atty. From the moment we met, he never spoke down to us, never made you feel worse than the charges. In fact, he gave us hope after hearing all the details. He kept us up to date at all times. He would contact us via email or phone or both! And nev...er sugar coated the defense. In the end, charges were greatly reduced for my son, and we couldn't be happier! Mr. Konecky got my son a 2nd chance to better himself and prove to be a better citizen!

What's it worth?

I was caught between a rock and a hard spot with Martin County police charging me with simple battery, and with my career at risk. I could not afford to be taken for granted by an attorney that lack the skills and motivation. I placed several calls around the Martin County area seeking a confident la...wyer that practice good transparency, when I came across Matt Konecky's ad. I place a message on his answering machine and within a minute or so, he immediately responsed, and being pro-actively engaged by pulling up the case and the location of the event given me a sign of drive and a confident feeling that he would be the man for the Job. I was right, the case was dis-missed within a couple of months, without me ever setting a foot in court. Just think...the courts place a 1 year deal on the table that would have ended my career. So, if your freedom and career is worth it, dig a little deeper to get the result you deserve, remember you get what you pay for!!!

Clearing up past mistakes!

I recently contacted the law office of Matt Konecky, to hire him, in helping me clear up a court case in south Florida from many years ago. Just after speaking to Matt, I felt comfortable and knowing that he could handle the case. He was very knowledgeable in Florida law and how the court system work...s. It turns out, it was the best phone call I have made in years. 2 short days later, my cases was on it's way to being dismissed. I was able to take a sigh of relief and knowing that this trouble was on it's way to being over after many years of worrying about it. Thanks to Matt Konecky, I can being a new life free of worrying. Thanks Matt, Awesome Job!

Reccomended

Received a letter stating my FL license was revoked from something that happened to me out of state 5 years ago. I was recommend to Mathew and he gave me the proper steps and protocol to follow to deal with my situation. Turns out I just had to pay a $205.00 reinstatement fee to FDOT.

"I endorse this lawyer. I am a criminal defense attorney in Indiana who needed some very detailed answers for a client in Florida. I called several attorneys. Matt answered the same day. Low and behold, he was one of my interns way back, when I was the elected prosecutor in Bloomington, Indiana! We discussed some very detailed law questions that he researched and got back to me with a solid answer. Very personable and got back with me on a weekend. What more could you want? Five stars."
