Professional
I was involved in a car accident and really didn’t know what to do or who I would contact. I was referred to Mr. Matt Granda by a coworker stating, “He is easy to work with and easy to understand.” I decided to get in contact with Matt in hopes to find some kind of help. Matt made this process extremely easy for me with handling any kind of questions or concerns regarding the incident. He was extremely professional and you can tell he was confident in his work. I would say Mr. Granda did an exceptional job keeping me updated with any information he was receiving throughout the process. I believe his “strongest” point as professional was that he made you feel like “family” he got in contact with me frequently just to see how I was doing and continued to reassure me that everything is being taken care of. I hope I would never have to use a lawyer again but, in case I do. I now know I can count on Mr. Granda to be there and I would recommend him to anyone who needs a lawyer involving a car accident with some personal body injury.
