Simply the best

I met with Mr. Work after interviewing for other divorce attorneys and within 10 minutes I knew I needed him on my side. He was blunt, straightforward and told me exactly what my strengths were but more importantly how to prepare for my weaknesses. The other attorneys simply tried to sell me and mak...e it seem like everything would be a slamdunk. Mr. Work is blunt and even in some ways can come off rude at times but at the end of the day his heart is in the right place and i knew i made the right choice hiring him because he really cares about delivering the best for his clients.

Simply Amazing

After one less than impressive experience with a Reno family law attorney, I made the wise decision to do my research, read reviews and asked around. I found Mathew and Rebecca and hired them as my attorneys . The experience with Rebecca versus my previous “billboard attorney” was night and day. She ...answered the phone, quickly responded to my emails and was reassuring throughout the very emotional custody battle. I am so grateful to have found these kind and caring people. There are still good ones out there.

All charges dropped

I hired Work Law after being falsely accused with a rather serious crime. Matt and his team were able to present my side of the story in a clear and honest manner. I admire the enthusiasm and passion shown by them while handling my case Ultimately, all charges were dropped. I am very thankful for eve...ryone over there at the firm.

Excellent service

If you were looking for an attorney, look no further. Matthew and his team were a dream to work with. He was constantly keeping me updated throughout my case and by the time we got to court, he clearly had the best grasp of the facts. His trial skills are superior to the opposing attorney and we ende...d up winning our case because of his abilities.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I have appeared as opposing counsel against Mathew Work on divorce and custody matters. In my experience, Mr. Work is an experienced, and ethical attorney. Because of my confidence and respect for Mr. Work as an attorney, I referred a family member to him in a civil matter. At the conclusion of the case, the family member personally thanked me for the referral and informed me that Mr. Work obtained an outcome for him that was better than expected."

  • 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.
