Great Attorney

Great attorney, He does what he says he going to do. I've had several attorney's that I felt just told me what I wanted to hear instead of the reality of things, he doesn't do that. He is honest from the beginning and tells you all the possibilities and probability of the outcome. We still have a l...ong road ahead of us in our case, and I feel very confident with him in our corner. He is great in the court room as well when arguing against other attorney's.

Excellent. This laywer is a Winner.

Amazing work. Had a protective order placed against me and this lawyer went out of his way to gather all the information accordingly and his knowledge was shown in court. He won by the way. He listens and cares about people's rights. He is willing to help even the little guy in this big world. Fantas...tic work. I'll use him over and over! Down to earth and always keeps me updated.

What I Needed

I was in real trouble. I had an attorney who screwed up my case terribly. Over a year into the case and my attorney didn't do what I needed. I need someone who could fix the damage and give me a strategy about how to proceed. I got a good result and greatly appreciate Matt's approach and bed side ma...nner. Trustworthy and straight forward.

THE divorce attorney

Matt is fabulous. My case has been incredibly difficult with a lot of bull from the other side. Matt has given me realistic expectations from the beginning and every step of the way, then fought his butt off to exceed and give me more than what was expected. He knows what he's doing and will fight ha...rd for you. I trust him completely. He's also very good at keeping a level head, which I think is vital.

Knowledgeable and a great advocate

Matt made me feel like I knew everything about my case. I have felt like at the end of the day, my lawyer was more interested in lining their pocket then giving me all the facts and helping me see all the realistic outcomes so I could make the best decision for me and my family. I liked how he told m...e if what I wanted wasn't something the courts would do so I wouldn't waste time and money. I felt comfortable with his council and when you are in a situation where you need a lawyer, comfortable isn't something you feel a lot.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
