Nightmare

Retaining Matt Towson as my divorce attorney was a significant mistake. His primary focus is billing, not client advocacy or case management. From the outset, he demonstrated a lack of professionalism and organization. He does not meet clients in person, instead opting for hurried phone calls that of...ten seem distracted and unprepared. A critical failure occurred when he neglected to confirm whether my ex had been served—a fundamental responsibility that went unchecked for over a month. This negligence only came to light when I followed up. Additionally, he repeatedly scheduled meetings he failed to attend and was unresponsive to emails and case inquiries. Most concerning, he engaged in discussions with opposing counsel that undermined attorney-client privilege, failed to present structured legal arguments, and did not advocate for my interests in settlement negotiations. His billing practices are equally troubling. He invoices for work that was never completed and only provides statements monthly rather than biweekly, obscuring accountability. His office staff is ineffective, and the answering service is unhelpful. Upon termination, he hastily compiled an unorganized Dropbox folder, which contained none of the necessary case documents. It was only after I fired him that he became responsive—reaching out repeatedly to inquire about my next legal representation. Despite billing me for services he did not provide, he refuses to issue a refund, prompting me to pursue legal action. Going through a divorce is emotionally and mentally exhausting; the last thing anyone needs is an attorney who is disengaged, disorganized, and solely focused on billing rather than advocacy. I strongly caution against retaining Matt Towson. His conduct is not only unprofessional but detrimental to clients who rely on competent legal representation during one of the most challenging times of their lives. I can not recommend Matt Towson, I urge you to check references.

Highly Recommend

I highly recommend Matt Towson. I reached out to him during one of the most precarious times in my life. Without his wisdom and expertise, I cannot say where I would be today. From the very beginning, Matt demonstrated exceptional professionalism, deep legal knowledge, and genuine care for my case. H...e guided me through my divorce and custody proceedings with clarity and confidence, always keeping me informed and ensuring I felt heard and supported every step of the way. Matt was not only highly skilled in navigating the complexities of my case but also showed great empathy and understanding during a particularly emotional and challenging time. Thanks to his diligent preparation and strategic advice, we achieved a favorable outcome. My family and I are incredibly grateful for Matt’s dedication and support. I sincerely hope you never find yourself in need of a family court lawyer, but if you do, I can confidently recommend Matt Towson. He will truly advocate for you, communicate effectively, and prioritize your best interests. I am deeply thankful for his hard work and commitment.

Best Attorney!!!

Saying Matt is an amazing attorney and cares about his clients is an understatement. I had plenty of consultations before going with Matt. I did not get good vibes from any of the attorneys I met with until Matt. He answered his own phone, early in the morning by the way, and truly listened to my sit...uation, which was an emotional one for me. He actually listened. Other firms explained different attorneys would handle my case as it went on, which I did not like and Matt made it clear he would be the only one handling my case. My child custody case was made difficult from the very start. MATT DID NOT GIVE UP ONCE! He only fought harder for me and my son and what was right. What should have been an easy enough case, draw up some paperwork and get it signed did not turn out that way. Matt explained everything, every step of the way. He never got frustrated or annoyed with me. He worked ridiculously hard on my case. I was never left wondering what was happening or what the next steps would be. In the end, thanks to his determination, I got everything I wanted and needed for me and my son while remaining fair to the other party. He did not sugar-coat anything or give me false expectations at any point. Every time we talked, he made sure to ask about my son and how he was doing. He has values, morals and understands the difficult situations. I could not be happier with the outcome of my case and it is all thanks to Matt and his hard work (and boy did he work hard on this one). A huge thank you to Matt for being not only an amazing attorney but a great person! Thank you Matt, for everything!
