Best lawyer

Mr Allen navagated all the documents and paperwork to get my sister on Medicaid when I was lost how to do any of it. He continues to take care of my disabled sisters needs. I will continue to have him represent my family. A really good guy who goes the extra mile

Client

Matt, is a blessing! My cousin passed away Sept. 8 and I was introduced to him by a mutual friend. He helped me with the probate process and has been there every step of the way. I could go on about Matt, but you could not ask for a better attorney. thank you Matt!

Medicaid approval for James and Donna Johnston

My name is Mike Childs. My wife Karen and I hired Matthew after a long struggle trying to get Karen’s father ( James Johnston) and his wife ( Donna Johnston) approved for Medicaid on our own. Matthew, immediately went to work with us getting everything necessary for the approval process. There we...re a couple unforeseen issues that came up that I had overlooked, but were very apparent to Matthew. He explained everything in great detail and was able to get the approval needed. Throughout this process there were numerous times we needed to call Matthew for questions we had. He was always there to help us with anything we asked of him. In our opinion, Matthew went above and beyond in his efforts to help us in every aspect of the Medicaid approval process. We are very grateful and would highly recommend his services to anyone. Thank you so much for all you have done for us. Sincerely, Mike and Karen Childs

Two-generation review in one

Matthew handled all of my mom’s legal matters when she transitioned from an assisted living apartment to a long term care facility. From the start, she and I both felt at ease with Matthew. He was always respectful, never condescending and patient with her at every step, ensuring that she clearly und...erstood the process. Sadly, my mom passed away only days before Matthew was to submit her Medicaid application. I have retained his services to finalize my mom’s estate matters, and also intend to have him take care of my estate planning.

Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
