Above and Beyond

Matt worked with my family and I for years on a very grueling and difficult civil case. We were constantly pleased by Matt's knowledge and his ability to find solutions to each of the many curve balls that were presented throughout this process. It took a lot of creative thinking and problem solving ...to bring our case to a close and Matt was certainly the best person for that job. He was always extremely diligent in keeping us up to date and informed every step of the way. His communication really is unmatched. Through it all, he helped guide us to the most reasonable and fair outcome, keeping us educated and aware of where the case stood and where it was going. I continue to look forward to working with Matt again in the future and remain grateful for everything that he has done for me and for my family. I am positive, whoever reads this will feel the same after working with Matt. Don't miss the opportunity.

Person of integrity

Matt is to the point, listens well, and comes to know the issue quickly. His counsel was practical and well articulated, taking into a broad range of possibilities. He is very easy to talk to and helped me come to the best decision based on the law, financial requirements and an emotional point of... view. I appreciate his integrity, timeliness, compassion and professionalism. I highly recommend him.

Great advocate for health insurance claim

Matt succeeded in getting health care coverage from my health care insurance for medical procedures that should have been covered. My MD was very impressed, as he himself had not been successful despite numerous appeals.

Matt Kristofco has been a Great partner for our growing business.

Matt has been a huge asset for our companies needs. He is very knowledgeable, and has helped us with various aspects of Business and Construction law. Matt also reponds in prompt manner. We have dealt with Attorneys in the past, that would take days to get back to you. This is not the case with the K...ristofco Law Firm, it is a much more personalized service. We here consider Matt more of a team member, instead of just "our attorney".

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
