Mr. Rueda went beyond any attorney I spoke with about my divorce case. He was very honest with me and thorough through each step of the process. He always made time to answer my questions as well as keep me informed. I have already referred a close friend to Mr. Rueda as I am confident he will treat... her case with as much respect and care as he has mine.

Mr. Rueda represented me in a divorce in 2012. This was a trying time for me and my daughter. Mr Rueda not only worked with me and "held my hand" every step of the way, but also made me feel comfortable with the process. I won custody of my daughter and could not be happier. He is an amazing atto...rney and man. I have told all of my friends and family about my attorney. And yes he is "my attorney for life". Thank you so much Mr. Rueda.

My divorce was complex (with a lot of property), highly contested, spread over two counties and took two years to the day to finalize. Mat was my third attorney and the only one that under promised and over delivered on what he said he could do or not do for me and my two sons. I've worked wit...h many, many attorneys in the past (over 10) and the standard method of getting clients is to over promise what they can do for you and then slowly let you down to what they can actually do while they bill you hourly. Mat is in no way like this. He's super honest and will tell you going into things that he does not think he can do xy or z for you...but he'll say I can probably do ab and c for you. This was awesome. Mat is young, smart, knowledgeable about the law (and life), hardworking, and patient. Mat understands the emotional side of family law and was really good at understanding my emotions and bringing me back on point. There were a couple of times that Mat didn't know the answer to my questions so rather than guess he said "let me look that up and get back with you". I really appreciated his honesty and candor. Mat became my partner in my divorce. I feel like he really cared about my case and the outcome my boys and I ended up with. I feel like Mat became my friend and we both ended up with a lot of respect for each other. I read another review on this site about Mat and all I can say is that the other poster has no idea what they are talking about. Some people can never be made happy I guess. Contrary at the end of my divorce I kept asking Mat if I owed him anymore money because I KNEW he had worked a ton of hours on my case. He kept telling me that I did not. I NEVER imagined in a 1,000 years that I'd ever ask an attorney if I owed them more money. Funny, I know! If Mat were greedy he could have easily said yes you owe me x more dollars but he's not like that which is awesome! I have told a couple of people about Mat and what a great job he did for me and my boys. If I ever have a need for additional family law advice or work I pray that I will be able to use Mat again. I just hope he does not get too busy in the future because he is so good that he gets too expensive and overbooked to help me. The only thing I would say that is even slightly not positive about Mat is I think he cares to much at times and the small clerical details get pushed off to a later date or time. He could use an administrative assistant or legal assistant to help him with the not so important stuff on his plate. Having my own small business I know personally how hard this can be to do. On one hand you know you could so the small things yourself but on the other you have more pressing things to be doing with your time. BUT the other side to this possible weakness is Mat never dropped a ball with me on something big. He knows the important stuff in his head and will never leave you high and dry...and in the big picture THAT'S what's important. So to sum it all up Mat helped me sleep well at night and focus on running my business while my divorce was being wrapped up. From the moment I met him I never felt that my case with him was not being managed professionally. Oh, and one more thing Mat drove to another county no fewer than 3 times for my case. That was no fewer than 12 hours of sitting in a car that I'm pretty sure he never even billed me for. I even offered to pay him mileage at least and he declined my offer. I had another atty charge me 800.00 for doing that drive one time! Don't walk to hire Mat Rueda...RUN TO HIRE HIM!!!

Mat has been diligent in my case and has even met with me during the weekend to keep the process going. He has kept me informed through different types of media. He has been aggressive and determined to win my case while considerate of fees. I would recommend him to anyone else that is going through ...a divorce.

I would put in in spanish and in english. This was my first experience in USA with a legal dispute and Mat was pretty open to help at the begining, giving clear advice in our initial conversation about what to do, claiming that this would be an easy case to deal with etc. He was answering my text mes...sages and also helping me out with the set up of the payment. Once he got the payment, he never answered my back again by text message and he distributed this case to another partnered firm, without any notification or conversation. Several times I expressed my disconformity with the new law firm and he never replied. You would pay the retainer and you will be ghosted. If you really want your case to take forever, not attended, without communication, just to pay money to fund this guy, please go ahead with Mat law firm. Mat is your best fit. If you want something else, run away Esta ha sido mi primera experiencia en USA. Este tipo estaba abierto a ayudar desde el principio, destacando que el creia que iba a ser facil y rapido. Era comunicativo y me ayudaba con mis respuestas antes de pagarle. Cuando pague el retainer, dejo de contestar y envio el caso a otro bufete de abogados. Nunca mas respondio ni tomo responsabilidad alguna del caso. Si lo que quieres es pagar dinero a fondo perdido, financiar a este bufete y que tu caso no quede resuelto, esta es tu mejor opcion. Si lo que buscas es lo contrario, huye! Aunque hable espanol de que sirve si no va a hacer nada después de escucharte y venderte las bondades de su firma para nada?
