He did a Great Job!

Mr. Erdman took our case and gave us excellent professional and ethical representation. He gave us very timely communications and responses. We have no hesitation to refer a friend to him.

capable and personable

Right from the moment I met Matthew, I was confident of a positive outcome. He has a very personable approach and listened to me as though he believed what I was telling him. He responded immediately to my phone calls and emails and resolved my case with better results than I was expecting. I will... most certainly recommend him to a friend.

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.
