Posted by Tim | December 06, 2023 | Hired Attorney | Divorce & Separation

Divorce is not his specialty

Lack of attention to detail explains it all. He arrived to my dissolution with a completely different document that was previously signed by myself and ex-wife. Filled with errors. Extensive clean up work needed after divorce finalized. He never took accountability for his missteps. Communicati...ng with Mr. Exton was very difficult. Emails were NOT returned in a timely manner. Very disappointed. Buyer beware, I guess.

Excellent attorney

Mathew Exton is an excellent attorney very knowledgeable, very friendly, very polite, and he works hard to get you what you want. He has helped me with getting my divorce, helped me with a custody issue, and just helped me to adopt my daughter. I will always be indebted to him not in money but in a...ppreciation for what he has done for my family. I would highly recommend him you will not be disappointed.......

Highly reccommended atty

Mr Exton was an excellent attorney. He was straightforward and always told me what to expect with each step of the legal processes we had to go through. I would reccommend him to anyone, no matter what your situation. Mr Exton was even forth coming about the fees and also made it clear to me when my ...retainer fee was used. Mr Exton will not let you down, he was always honest about my situation.
