Truly astonishing and outstanding defense lawyer against DUIs

Matthew Flemister is one of the best lawyers that I ever hired. He was always able to answer all my questions and call me back as soon as possible I am utterly elated that he was able to beat my case with such ease. I recommend Mr. Flemister to anybody who needs a miracle in their life. I appreciate ...him a lot and he’s a very understandable and patient man. Please do not hesitate to call to hire this amazing person!!

Incredibly informative, highly skilled, responsive, and a well-respected lawyer

I was completely clueless when I called Matthew. As I explained my situation to him, he immediately took charge and began working on it right away. I’m truly grateful that he listened to me attentively and clearly explained all the possible scenarios. After carefully evaluating my case, he told me... it should be dismissed—and he successfully got it dismissed. There were times when I felt broken and had no one to talk to, so I reached out to him. He was always quick to respond and showed genuine understanding and compassion. Matthew is highly informative, exceptionally skilled, responsive, and a well-respected lawyer. He will definitely be my go-to lawyer for life, and I would strongly recommend him for any legal situation you may face.

Look no further for the best

Matthew went above and beyond for me during a horrible chapter in my life. I had no prior criminal record and had an unfortunate situation turn into a felony arrest right when the Covid lockdown started. Because of Covid it took over a year of going to court dates on zoom and going back and forth wit...h the prosecutors, but ultimately Matthew was able to get all my charges dismissed. He kept me in the loop every step of the way. He explained things to me in a way i understood. I never had an issue getting in touch with him, he was always personally available to answer my questions. If you’re looking for legal representation don’t look any farther, hire Matthew Flemeister immediately!

Mr. Flemister is the best!

I got a ticket during the middle of a move from one state to another for forgetting to renew my tags and registration. I didnt realize I actually had to go to court, and ended up with a failure to appear. I've never been in any kind of legal trouble prior, and I had reached out to several firms to fi...nd a lawyer. Mr. Flemister's firm was greta - they worked with me on a payment plan, got the fta dropped, and my license was reinstated. He made sure I understood the process throughout, and was always very responsive to questions and concerns. I highly recommend this firm for your legal needs!

Great and fair attorney!

Mr. Flemister is a great and fair attorney. Not only was he able to get my case dismissed, but he was fair with his pricing and kept his word every step of the way without misleading me into something that may not have happened. He was very forthcoming with every expectation I had and he delivered an...d then some. I happily endorse Mr. Flemister and if I ever need council in the future (which I hope not), I will hire him again. I'm very pleased with everything he did and he gave my unimaginable circumstances hope and made me feel like it's not the end of the world.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

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.
