AMAZING!!!!
Hands down one of the best decisions I ever made was hiring Matt as my attorney!!! My case was not the “normal” divorce.... I had all the typical stuff like a child, home, cars and 401ks but in a same sex marriage. When I went in for my consult I knew in the first 2 mins I was going to hire Matt. I d...

Terrific Attorney
Matt is an honest and personable Attorney. I approached him after trying few attorneys with good reviews on Avvo.com. He instantly picked up my call while he was driving home from work. He apparently pulled over and listened to my frantic call very patiently, explaining his services and costs very c...

great competent lawyer
I have a child support modification and I was referred to Mr. Tyson. I got screwed by the State of Texas and was really upset. After meeting him and hiring him I felt so much better about the situation. He has a great attitude and is very upfront and honest. The billing was very open and itemized. Th...

Grateful
When my wife was murdered, her parents took my children and filed for custody. Matt won my children back. Before I met Matt, I must have talked with a hundred lawyers or more. When I hired Matt a tremendous weight was lifted off my shoulders. I felt like Matt was confident about my case and he w...

BEST Houston Family Law Attorney
When it comes to family law - Matt is an excellent attorney and I would recommend him bar none. I came to him with a strange family law situation and he laid out all the options in a clear, coherent manner. He treats you with respect and confidence and executes on his word. He is extremely cost-consc...
Matthew Casey Tyson's Lawyer Endorsements
"Matt is an extremely capable attorney, and an honest and worthy opponent. Matt took a case for a formerly Pro Se mother who suddenly had no job and nowhere to stay. Matt was able to come up with solutions and ideas that I had not considered when I was working on behalf of the father. It could have been an extremely difficult and expensive case for both parties, as they each were wanting sole custody, or a 50/50 with each insisting on exclusive rights. Matt went above and beyond to do the right thing for his client, and in the end, help reach a 50/50 that all parties, and the kiddo, were excited about. Matt does what he says, and goes out of his way to do it WELL! A client would be privileged to have Matt as their counsel."
"Matt is an excellent attorney known for his aggressive trial skills. Regardless of the type of case, he vigorously fights for his clients and doesn't stop until he achieves results."
"Matt is extremely capable in the courtroom but courteous to both clients and opposing attorneys. I was impressed by his professionalism an advocacy."
"Matt is a force to be reckoned with. He is knowledge, skilled and never scared to take disputes to the Court room. Although he may be young, he has the demeanor and skills of a 40 year attorney. I am very excited to watch him grow even more."
