Matthew Joseph Kuehnl

My divorce process lasted for two horrendous years. However, Matthew and Sarah stood by me all the step of the way. All effort to settle with my ex, the petitioner, without the need for trial proved abortive. We went to mediation, I presented him with two different settlement offers, attended settlem...ent conference but he refused to settle. Sometime during the process, a major health concern showed up but this was not enough to stop my ex from refusing to settle. I was faced with fighting for my life and getting divorced all at the same time. I had to go in for a lifesaving surgery, and two weeks later had a court hearing. Through it all, Matthew and Sarah were very empathetic and professional. They made sure that all necessary court documents were prepared and submitted on-time. Matthew’s compassion for my children was outstanding. He understood that the well-being of my children was by far the most important to me, and he made sure that their best interests were represented all through the process. Matthew was very prompt at responding to my emails and he met with me periodically to discuss our next step and possible outcomes. He was very fair and equitable in his suggestions on how assets and debts should be distributed. He did not give me a false impression about the process. Rather, he explained and made me understand how the court system works, and he was very conscious of my financial state. He worked with me to ensure that I was not financially ruined after the divorce was over. Knowing that I could not afford the costs of him representing me at the divorce trial, he made the process very smooth and easy for me to step into. All ER904’s, trial brief and exhibits were prepared by Matthew and Sarah, necessary copies for all involved were made by them and delivered promptly. All I had to do was review all documents and show up for trial by myself, and I felt confident and well prepared. They also helped me to draft all the final orders. While I don’t pray for anyone to go through what I went through, I strongly recommend that you contact Matthew and his team should it become necessary for you to get divorced.

After years of a complicated and drawn out custody case with legal counsel that I wasn't satisfied with I decided to hire Matt in hopes of getting a permanent parenting plan in place that was best for my daughter. Matt exceeded every expectation that I had for an attorney and then some. He was punctu...al, organized, thorough, realistic, patient and just an over all genuine being. We were not working with much in terms of the other partys' willingness to negotiate but Matt somehow worked his magic and was able to avoid trial while achieving a more stable parenting plan that I felt important for my child, along with the provisions necessary to keep her safe and healthy. Hiring Matt was the best decision that I could have made and I will forever be grateful for what he was able to accomplish for my family!
