Great job making the most stressful time of my life a little easier .

I had a lot on my plate and no clue what to do. I had a friend send me the number to Craig and I figured I would contact him along with several others and see who seemed like the best choice. I was contacted quickly by several but Craig was the one I went with just based on a short conversation with ...him and I could tell he was a good man. He made this an easy process and that was much needed with all the stress I had going on . He was always quick to contact me or answer my calls or emails when I had questions. I felt very confident that things would be ok after hiring Craig . As a father of 5 kids I was really worried about losing everything and he assured me that it was going to be ok and he would take care of me . Well that he did , and I am so thankful for his help thru the entire process and even after . He almost feels like a part of the family now (that really cool brother you call for help) Honestly, you can't go wrong with hiring him if you need good representation. he is very straight forward on what options you have and you can rest easy knowing he will get things done . I am more than pleased with my experience that's for sure .

Honest man

Craig walked me through the whole process and was upfront with me about everything even the news I didn't want to hear which is the best way to deal with people in my opinion.

Trust Your Lawyer

First and foremost, “thank you” to Craig Matthew Stewart for taking on my case, which was one of the most devastating struggles in my life. Craig also took on my case in such a gracious demeanor. Respectfully in words, I am truly awed, inspired, humbled and touched by all of the time, effort and dedi...cation Craig put forth into my case. How can I possibly express my gratitude and where do I begin to say “thank you"?  This case was quite a long, hurtful and difficult journey for me and my family and also one of the toughest. I have struggled tremendously. But I was deeply moved by the way Craig stood by my side throughout the whole process, and was extremely sincere and supportive all through the case. Since my first meeting with Craig, I knew I was never alone. Craig enormously helped me with his guidance and he always intuitively seemed to know either what to say or offer advice that was of immense support for me. Craig had a great impact on me through this difficult period of my life. Whenever I communicated with Craig in chat about the case, I always got a sense of being encouraged to look further – look within for the wisdom. I discovered so much every time we spoke. Craig always tried to help build my self-esteem and strengthen my character, and for that I am thankful for his guidance and grateful to know such a genuine lawyer. Craig has the ability to “feel” what one is going through. He is a very good listener with very good qualities and advice. Craig has been blessed with a gift of understanding. And I truly mean that from the bottom of my heart. I am so appreciative because Craig has helped me more than he knows and for that I am so thankful he was my lawyer. Craig got my case not only dismissed but expunged. Words cannot express the peace in my heart with everything behind me. I never look back and I've move forward! It's truly amazing with all of Craig's support how much of a difference it made. Once again, I am forever grateful, and as always, ultimately inspired by Stewarts forever engaging support, thoughtfulness, kindness, sincerity and especially the warmth it will always hold in my heart. Craig's loyalty, knowledge and determination were what solved my worries throughout the case. Craig was truly my anchor.

Waste of time, I don’t trust him

I had a horrible experience with this (insert word) he would not refund my fee, despite never appearing in court for me at all.. I fired him and didn’t receive a response until I asked for a refund weeks later! I left a review and he threatened to sue me on Google. DO IT!!!!!
