My fiancé's family hired this attorney. This was 5 YEARS AGO! My fiance is still in jail, paid 25K to get NOTHING. He is not responsive, he doesn't provide updates unless you hunt him down. He will NOT fight for you unless he sees value (money) apparently 25K isnt enough. My fiance is still trying to... figure out where he is in his case. He was constantly told this will take time but it's been 5 years & no proper update have been provided recently BUT he will find a way to ask for more money. He will charge you for EVERYTHING. I would not recommend this lawyer. If you aren't a celebrit or paying over 50K he will take your money & prolong his assistance to the point of filing negligence against him. Currently doing so now.

My husband and I hired Matthew to do a review of his case and to see what his options were to get him released. I should have trusted my instincts with this guy. He talked a good game said he would review my husbands case and let us know what his options are. We paid him and never heard back, trie...d several times to get a hold of him and nothing! We finally got a call when I emailed him telling him my husband was being considered for resentencing that my husband and I filed before hiring Matthew. He said he was trying to call me but had the wrong number. The call was only to ask for more money 20,000.00 to be exact he gave me a shady sales pitch saying he would put what we gave him towards the fee for representation on the resentencing and we just give him 20,000 more. I should have read the complaint on him on the BBB website before giving him anything someone with the same experience that I had. In conclusion, I declined paying him another dime and asked him to provide the review that we paid for and never got it , The only thing he sent my husband was a bill of charges for phone calls that he said he made to us regarding his case . No case review was ever done he just took our money.

Mr. Barhoma got all charges dismissed! I called him when my son got a DUI. He was charged with driving under the influence, resisting arrest, and possession of a controlled substance. Mr. Barhoma explained things so well. He eventually did exactly the strategy he outlined for us during our initial ca...ll. Mr. Barhoma knew the downtown la courthouse very well. He was able to work his magic and dismiss all charges! Mr. Barhoma restored my son a full life. And no amount of money could be worth that. Thank Mr. Barhoma!!!!

Matthew drafted all my services agreements and helped me protect all my possible liability. He was VERY responsive and very tech savvy. He knew exactly what I needed and was able to describe it to me extremely well! He rounded down on his hourly and genuinely cared for my brand. He also helped me ent...er into a international agreement with foreign companies! He further drafted my Terms and Conditions, which allowed me to cover all my liability! Matthew is currently on retainer for my company and I couldn't be more at peace because of it! I love his work ethic and his ability to produce quality work! He's truly an expert in his field and such a caring lawyer. He was even capable of fixing the wrongs of my old lawyer who used me and my company for profit.
