Posted by anonymous | October 22, 2021 | Hired Attorney | Criminal Defense

Public Defender

Discovered new evidence in the middle of trial but did not request additional time to review the evidence. Felt like he was doing just what that court and the city attorney wanted him to do instead of fighting for my rights.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have had the pleasure of working with Matthew Wechter on many matters throughout his career. If you are lucky enough to have him assigned to your case, you will realize your good fortune soon after meeting him. He is extremely knowledgeable in criminal defense and very dedicated to his craft. He is highly respected by the bench, his co-workers, the private bar, and the district attorney's office. Matt approaches even the hardest and most difficult cases with compassion and a keen problem-solving approach. He is not afraid of tackling complex or difficult issues in his cases. He takes the time to get to know his clients and search for mitigating or exculpatory evidence. I highly recommend this attorney."

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.
