This is the terrible lawyer you are warned not to hire

Hired Mr. King to handle my divorce and found him to be unorganized and unprofessional. He would always make remarks about being forgetful and grateful to his part time legal assistant for keeping him somewhat organized. It wasn’t till my case really started going through the courts I noticed his lac...kadaisical handling of it. He made poor decisions on my behalf before the judge without even consulting me prior and the final straw was his careless neglect of notifying me of an important meeting between the GAL and former spouse to discuss custody. I’m still seething that he did not tell me of this prearranged meeting that I missed because of him. The best thing I did was remove Mr. King from my case. It was under my new lawyer that I discovered just how careless his work was. To this day I don’t know who he was working for because it wasn’t me. Please think twice before hiring Mr. King, he presents himself as some who doesn’t really know what he’s doing.

Efficient and Helpful

Mr. King and his associates provided legal council for my divorce last year. During my initial consultation with Mr. King, I knew that this attorney would represent my needs and the needs of my young children well. Mr. King is responsive, professional, and reasonable. I never got the sense that he... was only in this for billable hours. He has a well developed law acqumen with the ability to connect with his clients. I plan to retain Mr. King for any future family law issues I may incounter (hopefully none).

Matthew John King

Mr. King was very kind and diplomatic in handling my case. He was able to convince my ex-spouse to work with me for a favorable resolution to our conflict. I was impressed with his knowledge regarding my dilemma. He was prompt in returning all of my calls. He answered my questions in a manner that ...I could easily understand. Very importantly, Mr. King is honest. I did not use up all of my retaining fee. Mr. King informed me that the firm would be sending me a check for the unused balance (and he did). I would recommend Matthew John King to anyone in need of legal services. He's ace high in my book!

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I've known Matthew King since we opposed each other in a Family Law case, where he always comported himself professionally, knowledgeably and courteously. I know that his clients get the best domestic relations representation possible because he's concentrated his practice in this area in this area, that he's always forthright with his clients about the issues in their cases and I know that in his practice he provides the utmost degree of care for his clients. Matthew is all around a top notch attorney and, in my opinion, a top notch person."
