Matthew Lightner Lyons

Let me state this up front. As a rule I DON'T LIKE ATTORNEYS. However..... Matt is an exception. He is a man of strong character, integrity and compassion. These are traits that I generally do not attribute to lawyers. He has a servant heart and will give his best effort to successfully l...itigate a case. He is knowledgeable, strategic and tactical. We have had a professional relationship since 2007. I have sought, and heeded, his counsel on numerous occasions on matters within his area of practice as well as matters outside of his area. .... It is true that Matt went through a difficult period in his personal life that adversely effected his professional life, as have most of us at one time or another. But that was 10 years ago. I know this first hand because I first retained him in 2007 while he was in the midst of his tribulation. I have maintained a working relationship with him because of how he responded to the adversity. Matt took ownership of his situation and rebounded admirably from it. He has worked relentlessly to reestablish himself in the field. In my opinion, Matt is a far better attorney because of his tribulation. As is said, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." When going to battle, I want a warrior whose mettle is tested. Matt is such a warrior.

I feel like some of these old reviews on this site are unfair. As I recently hired this attorney in a child custody case, he went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable with the process. He became someone I not only sought legal aid from, but someone I trusted and could count on. Matt showed u...tmost professionalism and was knowledgeable in all areas of the law. He was able to get me everything I wanted and I believe he truly cared about my case, which is rare. I would absolutely recommend this lawyer.

We hired Matt in 2005 he was absolutely amazing. He helped us to achieve everything we had set out to from the start. He was very informative and very knowledgeable through our entire experience. He listened to all of our wishes and helped us implement A child custody plan that was perfect for all. T...hrough the years I have always turned to Matt as I will continue not only did he do his job wonderfully the entire time he fought for what he knew was best for the child at hand. Any of our friends and family who have asked we have always referred them to Matt.
