      Review Matthew Griffith

      Great to have your side.

      Posted by

      I am currently a client of Matt and have been for a couple years. He is always consistent and fair with his advice concerning all parties. Matt has genuine concern for his client's best interest at all times. He helped to negotiate us through a difficult business situation where it was discovered the other party's lawyer had an undisclosed conflict of interest. Easy to work with, trustworthy, and does not run up the bill on you.

      Knowledgable Real Estate Attorney

      Posted by

      Matt helped me incorporate back in 2009 for my familys real estate business. Over the years Matt has provided clear, concise advice and often direction ranging from employee issues to reviewing contracts. Matt & his firm has also assisted us in accessing risk for a number of projects and providing clarity for good business practices.

      you could not ask for a better lawyer.

      Posted by

      Matt has been incredibly insightful and creative when assisting us in completing small or big business transactions. He is as good of a real estate attorney as you could want, yet is great in handling a broad spectrum of other legal issues. Even more importantly, we find him to be very genuine and personable. My wife and I have been in the business for 30 years, and it has been hard to find a better lawyer than Matt.

      Great for a buisness

      Matt has been great at keeping everything in check for my company. I use him both for personal and business related purposes . He is very reliable and goes above and beyond every time.

      You won't find a better business attorney

      Matt and his staff are friendly and VERY knowledgable. He formed our entity and has written numerous contracts for me and helped keep me out of trouble since our inception. They are very well versed in the law and have a knack for explaining it in laymans terms so I always understand the risks I take as a business owner and am able to calculate the with confidence. I will always use Matt's firm because it is so much easier to stay out of trouble than to try to get out of it.

      Outstanding Business Advice

      Posted by

      I started working with Matt when I started my business. He has been extremely beneficial every step of the way. From entity formation to business advice to lease negotiations to contracts and much more, his guidance has kept me out of trouble and saved me a lot of money. I highly recommend Matt with no reservations.

      Matt knows how to get the job done, no matter what the situation. He attacks a situation from multiple angles, is level headed, knows how to negotiate and get creative if need be, while keeping your best interest at heart. Matt is very personable, a family man that cares. I would recommend Matt for Real Estate law, business relations, and personal matters.
