Excellent attorney!

Whitney was extremely thorough and diligent with our case. She worked hard to get the answers we needed and a perfect end result. Super professional! 100% recommend!

Amazing!

Mrs. Matney performed amazingly for my case. She always kept me in the loop, making sure I understood every step of the way. She cares about her clients and shows compassion. I would recommend Mrs. Matney to anyone looking for an attorney.

The Best!!

I have dealt with many different lawyers in many different states and simply put - Whitney is the one you want! During out time battling child relocation, etc., she was realistic (never to keep me in the dark), motivated, and cautious when needed. There were times where I would be stressed or worried... and she would call me while eating dinner with her family at a restaurant to give me piece of mind. I appreciate all the time and energy she has given myself and my family and we got what we wanted. She is and will always be my go to when I need a change or need help in any legal matter.

She's simply the best!

I was fighting my ex for custody of our 2 kids. Everyone told me there was no way in Arkansas that I would win. I was constantly told that majority of the time, the judge always gives the mother custody of the children. I almost gave up on fighting, until I met Whitney. A friend recommended that I sa...t down with her, so I did. After explaining my situation and provided my evidence, her passion alone proved to me Whitney was perfect for the job. I hired her immediately. She explained everything so well and in a way that made it easy to understand. She worked so hard and passionately to lead us towards victory (to win the case). End result: My daughters live with me full-time and we are all living happily ever after. She still currently represents me and is there for me anytime I need her. As a joke with 100% truth behind it, I always tell her that she is the wind beneath my wings. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone! In fact, I tried to recommend her to someone and their reply was "I already have an awesome lawyer!" only to find out that she was ALREADY Whitney's client. In conclusion, Whitney made what I thought was only a dream come true. She will never know how much i appreciate and love her for what she's done for me and my family. Thank you Whitney! You are the best!

Best Lawyer In Arkansas

Whitney is the best lawyer anyone could hire for their case. I have used her services on a couple of occasions, she gives you the options up front and explains everything so it is easily understood. She is a great negotiator and gets results. If you new an attorney, look no further.
