Quick, Efficient and Aggressive.

I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend the Tabo Law Firm, located in Sacramento, CA. Matthew Tabo and his dedicated team provided exceptional legal support to my company during a challenging situation involving a former employee who was creating a hostile work environment and threatening our staff.... Initially, we attempted to handle the matter ourselves by filing restraining orders but quickly found ourselves overwhelmed by the complexities of the legal system. Turning to the Tabo Law Firm was one of the best decisions we made. Despite short notice, Matthew and his team expertly organized and analyzed our evidence, gaining a comprehensive understanding of both our position and that of the opposing party. This strategic approach allowed them to anticipate potential defenses and prepare us for success. Their meticulous preparation ensured that we entered the courtroom in the strongest possible position, ready to take an aggressive stance to protect our interests. Moreover, Matthew’s keen attention to detail corrected critical procedural errors that could have jeopardized our case and safety. The outcome was a resounding win, exceeding our expectations and delivering not only legal victory but also peace of mind. I wholeheartedly recommend Mathew Tabo and his team for their professionalism, expertise, and ability to navigate complex legal challenges effectively. They truly deliver results and help their clients achieve a decisive win in the most challenging situations.

Helped me get my restraining order

The Tabo Law Firm helped me with all of my legal needs. Their team was very kind, courteous, and communicative every step of the way! I'm glad I entrusted my case with the Tabo Law Firm as they made sure I understood the legal processes as well as all the details of my case. They helped me through an... incredibly difficult time in my life while providing me the support I needed through their expertise. If you're ever feeling confused or scared with whatever you're dealing with just know Matthew and his team will be there for you every step of the way, I can't recommend or thank them enough!

Child support Family Court Case

Mathew took on a very tough case for me. I was fighting my ex on back child support of 25 yrs. Mathew is a very logical and honest attorney who will help you make the right decisions and is ready to go with whatever the law allows. In the end I settled with what was owed and did not tap into his sup...er powers I read about from others about his trial experience. Mathew was able to show with the evidence prepared that the law was on our side and it could ruin my ex husbands financial future. He was able to reach a reasonable settlement without having to go through a trial that could have destroyed my ex husbands financial state forever. This was my first time dealing w an attorney. I will say most people’s biggest complaints about lawyers are they are hard to get a hold of. With that being said I know that he has other cases and other trials and he will communicate and let you know not to worry he has your back. No need to call everyday and check and run up your bill let him do the work and leave it to him to worry.

True professional that has your back!

I was introduced to Matt through a referral and when I met him for my initial consultation, I immediately knew he was the guy to take my case. I was definitely not disappointed with the results as I won my case. If you are looking for someone that has your back and will go to bat for you, then I woul...d give him a call to schedule an appointment for a consultation. Thanks again Matt and Nicole for all that you did for me and I will always be grateful to you both for all of your hard work, cheers!!
