If you've ever been through a divorce, you know how emotionally and physically stressful it can be. My separation was unbelievably nasty, and to make matters worse my children were abruptly separated from me after being their primary caretaker for 12 years. I was in a state of devastation, denial and... panic. I desperately began reaching out to various lawyers I researched online, and the only one who returned my call within an hour of leaving a message was Mr. Rueda. I can't explain the sense of relief and comfort I felt after speaking with him for only 10 minutes. He put my stresses at ease and immediately set up an appointment to meet me the following morning to review my case. Mr. Rueda has been one of the GREATEST blessings in my life. I have heard too many nightmare stories about lawyers, and I feel SO grateful that my experience has been the complete opposite. If I can describe Mr. Rueda in three words, they are: HONEST, ETHICAL, and SINCERE. I was very emotional in the beginning of my separation, but he was always reassuring, helped me remain calm, and exhibited a tremendous amount of patience with me. What makes Mat unique from all other attorneys is that he is UNBELIEVABLY responsive!! NO EXAGGERATION! He always makes himself available to answer questions no matter how repetitive they may be. He responds to my calls and texts outside of working hours and sometimes on the weekends!! Seriously, who does that?? Mat is also one of the humblest attorneys I have EVER met and is very approachable. He always makes me feel important and is concerned for me like a friend and not just a client. Mat and his entire staff are very professional. They are an amazing team and maintain excellent rapport with opposing counsel. Mat is VERY honest and straightforward about what to expect and doesn't make empty promises. I think that's a rare quality to find in a lawyer these days. I absolutely LOVE and admire him on so many levels and consider him a friend. Without a doubt he is the BEST of the BEST in Austin!! Mr. Rueda is deserving of 10 stars!!!!

I was so impressed during our initial consultation I decided to hire Mat for my divorce case. The property and money issues were huge and formidable running into millions of dollars. Tracing, documenting, pre-marriage and post separation was a monumental task. His law firm performed the task impeccab...ly and down to all the details. We had a fair and equitable division and both sides were happy and went on to live our own lives, thanks to Mr. Rueda and his team. Mat is super intelligent and formidable at accounting and calculations. He was professional and truly amazing. I will recommend him if you have a big property estate. His staff was very responsive as well. All around awesome experience.

I had a lot going on with my divorce and custody. Its not just the start or finish but the entire process is stressful. Every time I talked to Mr. Rueda in office or on the phone all my worries and concerns melted away. In a time of my life when I didn't know what to do, what steps to take or what ...questions to ask, Mr. Rueda was always there. He answered every call, email and text during my case. He was beyond prepared and confident during my divorce/custody trial and ended a three year long process with amazing results. Mr. Rueda has given me closure and the opportunity to begin with a fresh start.

I live out of state and needed a strong and aggressive attorney that could represent my son's best interest in a custody case. I hired Mat in March of 2019, even though I never met him in person. I never felt forgotten about, or out of the loop due to my distance, and never actually meeting Mat. ... Mat represented me accurately and aggressively. After a long battle, the judge gave me sole custody of my son last week. Now I get to raise him in Colorado with his grandparents and extended family. This was 100% due to the deligence and dedication Mat showed throughout my case. I will be recommending him to everyone I know. Mat is a total Allstar

I hired attorney Mat and I am thankful I found his office. I walked in terrified because my baby-daddy was being released from jail in a couple of months and had been threatening to take my child if I did not get back with him. I hired Mat and I felt the weight taken off of my shoulders. He comfort...ed me and advised me to not let him control me. He helped me win my case and the court gave me sole custody of my kids. Mat explained to the judge that my ex has a long history of abuse and drugs. Mat was very tough in court. There is a reason why his reputation is so amazing. If things take a turn for the worse again, I will for sure come back to him. I know he will take care of me.
