Matt is a great attorney! Highly recommend him!

Matt was a great attorney! On my initial visit we thought it was going to be an easy case...not so much! Matt was there every step of the way. He knew exactly what to do and kept me very reassured. This was a tough long and drawn out case, but he never backed down. I had a great outcome and would hig...hly recomend him to anyone.

Outstanding, ehtical and caring professional

I retained Matt in response to a long history of contention with my sons mom. I didn't know at the time there was such a thing as "abusive use of conflict". Thankfully Matt knew it was and what I was experiencing was exactly that. In the consultation he outlined a spectrum of possible outcomes, depen...ding on the judge and a number of other factors. In the end, the case ended almost exactly where he most likely suspected it would, and thanks to his knowledge and experience I've enjoyed a few months so far of drama free co parenting. Matt is the best. He has excellent integrity, has a caring disposition and has vast knowledge of family law and local rule. I couldn't recommend him enough if in need for a caring genuine attorney!!!

Highly reccomended

I had the pleasure in having Matt Kuehnl of McKinley Irvin represent me in my family law case for divorce, and child custody. Matt was extremely professional, caring, intensely knowledgeable, and responded to any questions I had promptly. Mr. Kuehnl's courtroom presence was phenomenal, he had an exce...llent use of diction, and Matt always presented my case with skill and tact. I highly recommend Matt Kuehnl, and I would give more stars if I could!!

A true professional and subject matter expert.

In a matter seconds, my life changed forever. I heard the sudden, unexpected, painful, and dreaded words "You've been served!" New to the area with no family or friends to guide me I had no where to turn for advice. By diligent research and comparison, I came across Matt. This man saved my life. Cha...nged it again for the better. He is a good man and an example of what a true caring and good human we should all be. His bottom line is your happiness and needs. Not his. Not money. In my times of anger and frustration and thoughts of malicious intent, Matt was always there with a calm clear reasonable mind. He always explained every step to me, answered every question, never interrupted me. In no time, I had my child back. In my home. I owe no financial support to the other party. They where suppose to pay me, but I declined. Matt was ok with this. Everything of mine was returned. I kept the house. I even got my dog back. (And yes, it was like a sad country song) If you need a diligent, smart, and cooperative attorney, Matt is the go to guy. He battled another highly rated female attorney who's clients are predominantly female and came out on top everytime. Men, do yourself a favor. Protect what you've worked hard to achieve. Protect it by hiring Matt. His ettiqute, grammar, attitude, and appearance let's you know this is the guy you need. The one who will stand behind you guarding and protecting. Hire Matt. He'll change your life too.

Amazing Representation, Speedy Results & Supportive through a rough case and time in life!

After having a nightmare experience and high attorney costs with a prior attorney and not really getting anywhere in 7 months I met Matthew who was able to step in and take control of my case. He has great legal and practice skills, good work ethics, professional representation and high ethical and ...professional standards. He does genuinely want to help people who become his clients. When you are going through the worst time in your life Matthew was always available to answer any questions or concerns I had. His staff is also very friendly. Matthew was very easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable. Mine was a very complicated and difficult divorce with the opposing side as difficult as can be and we have 2 small children involved and businesses. Matthew gave me all sorts of scenarios before we made any moves. Despite it being a difficult case I got favorable results thanks to Matthew and the competent associates who work for Matthew and at the end of the day was happy with what was a very painful and difficult experience all in all. I would recommend Matthew Kuehnl and his associates to my family and friends (hopefully they won't need him though).
