Great work
Mr. Tavi helped me with a charge I was issued that would have affected my job and within a short period of time with great communication and reassurance that he will do everything he can to help me with my predicament, Mr. Tavi helped me get it reduced down to practically nothing and made the process seem effortless . I would recommend Matt to anyone needing a lawyer who will put the time and effort in to get them the best results.

The best around
Both Tavi Law and Attorney Matthew Tavi were brilliant in terms of reducing my severe driving offenses down to a minor civil infraction. Attorney Matthew Tavi is extremely professional, savvy and well-connected which made Tavi Law the logical choice of counsel in my situation, especially when dealing with the Oakland County Court system. Highly Recommend 10/10

Amazing
Tavi Law is hands down the best civil litigation attorney in Oakland county and the entire State of Michigan as far as I’m concerned. After accepting a new job offer, my ex-employer vindictively and frivolously filed suit against me in Oakland County Circuit Court for an alleged breach of my employment contract, particularly regarding the non-competition and non-solicitation provisions in the contract, and for conversion, claiming damages of approximately $400,000. Unfortunately for my ex-employer, I immediately hired Tavi Law and Attorney Matthew Tavi to advocate on my behalf and defend my reputation and wallet against the breach of non-competition and non-solicitation claims , and Matthew Tavi did just that, ultimately obtaining a DISMISSAL of All Claims WITH PREJUDICE. Most people in this situation would’ve caved to the pressures of litigation, especially when being sued by a national company with substantial resources, but Matthew Tavi never even so much as flinched. The advocacy, sharpness, and skillful litigation tactics employed by Attorney Matthew Tavi immediately put my mind at ease and immediately made my ex-employer and opposing counsel regret their decision to “bluff” by bringing a baseless case and terrible allegations against a reputable, hardworking ex-employee (myself), during a pandemic nonetheless. I highly highly recommend Tavi Law and Attorney Matthew Tavi as the absolute best civil litigation attorney and breach of contract attorney in Birmingham MI and Oakland County, Michigan. 11/10

The best of the best
If you are reading this review, you have found an excellent attorney - YOUR attorney....I wish I could have come across a review that told me that when I began searching for the right/best one. My family and I very highly recommend Tavi Law and attorney Matthew Tavi, whom I honestly consider to be the best civil litigation attorney in Oakland County. Top of the line representation both in and out of the courtroom, excellent connections, and clear communication throughout the entire process. Highly Recommend 10/10.
