Outstanding support

Matt has been fighting for me and my children for close to a year now. Threw many hearings and motions filed, Matt had fought and won everytime I've had to go before the FOC or the judge. He knows how to handle the power and control situations very well. I'm so thankful for the support he has given m...e and my children.

Matt Caplan

My marriage was contentious, abusive, and irreconcilable. I needed a way out and wondered how I would be able to support myself and my kids on a low-income teacher's salary. I was recommended to DAWN by a friend, and Matthew Caplan guided me through an ugly, bitter divorce, helped me put a personal... protection order in place, and in the end, I was able to maintain my retirement fund, home, and most importantly, my dignity. I couldn't have done it without this firm supporting me through the divorce I dreaded but knew I needed, in order to become the strong, independent woman I know that I am. Thank you!

Matt Caplan has the strength and perseverance to fight for the righteous orders!

After years of horrific losses in the family court system I hired Matt Caplan. Within a short time his strength and perseverance has turned hopeless misaligned orders to righteous ones. My child and I are rightfully grateful.

I made the right choice!

I interviewed a couple attorneys before settling on the DAWN team. Could not be happier with my choice! Matt had my back the entire process and really kept me focused. I was kept aware of every single correspondence and concern. I felt very respected and that my thoughts and feelings were heard a...nd addressed. My divorce is final now and I can honestly say everything worked out the way I wanted...I received a fair settlement and my ex and I are still friends. Matt is an A+ guy and very versed in the law.

Best Lawyer!!

Dawn Law is a highly successful firm, their focus is protecting women's rights and helping them to win their cases . I worked with Matthew Caplan and he was very attentive and diligent. I have full confidence in his procedures and he never made me doubt his sincerity in the 4 years that I have been... his client. Matthew was able to overturn countless motions and helped to keep my family safe which is my number one goal. Matthew is understanding and kind. I can tell that he genuinely cares about my case and my family’s wellbeing and that is priceless. I have recommended his services to many friends and I am confident that he will be able to help them win their cases also.

  • 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.
