Great outcome for a collection case.
I found Matt on this site. We just had a basic suit on account case. We ended up getting all of the funds, including legal fees and finance charges, through garnishments. Communication was great through every step and estimates for services performed were right on.

Wonderful attorney!
Mr. Fryar is extremely knowledgeable and went the extra mile for us. He could have easily sold us a more expensive trust, but he was honest with us and told us all we needed was a will. There’s not many people nowadays who would be so honest, and we truly appreciated his honesty. We will use him for any legal need we have, and we would refer him to anyone!
