DO NOT USE THIS MAN

his man is all about the money. He also likes drugs and cheating on his wife. Yes, he judges you, sizes you up, and then takes your money. He decided to believe a woman who weighed 450lbs. This woman without any records from doctors, police, friends, family, or anyone, that she was hit. She is a phot...ographer and makeup artist. She had one picture. I was leaving this fat woman because she was abusing my daughter. Yes I called her fat. Matt was paid off and went with her story instead of the truth. He had my belongings for almost a year before he would release them to my family. The fat lady brought in a whole advocacy group and collaborated with others to get their story right. This was admitted in court. He never questioned it at all. But you got your money for drugs and that's all that mattered. You were rude and condescending to my mother and refused to see her. DO NOT GO TO THIS DRUG ADDICT. I guess the ex got her revenge with your help. 8 years prison

We spent at least 3 sessions and almost 12 hours total preparing you to testify. You knew there were two other women - your prior exes - waiting to testify as to the physical violence they claim you inflicted upon them as well. And yet you said "I would never do that" anyway. The trial transcripts are a matter of appellate record now. That was the answer that you gave that set you up to lose. You invoked your character, and that opened the door to that incredibly damaging testimony. If I made a mistake during your jury trial, it was trusting you to handle cross examination. But it was you who turned down deferred adjudication probation. It was you who insisted on a trial. It was you who chose to testify. It was you who blew it. You know I've been in recovery from drug addiction for more than a decade. You want to try and claim I'm an active addict when you know better? What happened to all that fake kindness and friendship you tried to engender with me? I worked hard for you. I believed in you. I do not appreciate these lies.

My amily's Lawyer

Mathew Maddox has been my lawyer for the past 2+ years and every time I have an issue or a question he is always willing to help, regardless if it is about my specific case or not. Accompanied by Angie Kraft, she is without a doubt the biggest blessing that God has put in to my life through this poi...nt of time. I cannot express how much these two people have changed my life in such a short amount of time. I highly recommend Matt Maddox Law Firm to anyone in need of a genuine lawyer with a supportive team.

Divorce Attorney

Matt, is very compassionate, understanding, knowledge lawyer, who cared a lot about my divorce case. Matt and his team made a very difficult time, more bearable and less stressful. His paralegal Angie, is amazing and extremely sympathetic and was always there to answer questions. I would highly re...commend this team for any divorce. You will not be sorry

Thr best part of a bad experience

Matthew Maddox was by far the best laywer i could have had in what id label as a terrible experience. He changed what i thought was a hopeless case into a blow out win! Matthew was always willing to meet and help guide me through my case aswell as communicated clearly and promptly. 10 out of 10 would... call again in a heartbeat!

Not All Lawyers Are EVIL

Over they past 5 years I have had an ongoing, drama filled divorce with children. I am in the military and it has exasperated the situation. Finding the right lawyer for the job proved to be harder then expected. If I only found Matthew Maddox from the start, I truly believe that my stress of the ...situation would be lower. He worked with me at every level and gave me the straight answer with every questions I had. He went out of his way to assist me with a payment plan and ensured that my well being was looked after in the realm of Law. Thanks Matt for all of your help.
