Virtual Consultation Available
I have been practicing law since 1983 and I very much enjoy what I do. I meet people at their lowest points, which is the nature of a divorce case, and I do everything I can to help them through this trying time. If children are involved, I urge my clients to emphasize what is best for the children. If the other spouse sees things the same way, this can lead to good outcomes for all concerned. I have a stable of available experts to assist my clients and me such as real estate appraisers, business valuation experts, forensic accountants, forensic psychologists and vocational rehabilitation experts. I work full time and am available Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. I am also available after hours or on weekends by appointment. As a public service, I do not charge a fee for a potential client's first appointment. I served 20 years in the United States Army Reserve and learned many valuable lessons in that career which I apply to my law practice every day.

Matt successfully demonst...

Great Attorney!
Matt took our case when others were hesitant and won! He is tenacious when we need him to be and realistic when we need to be talked off a ledge. I can't thank him enough for what he has done for our family!

Family lawyer with heart and teeth
I met Matt and his para Benjamin when my previous lawyer had abruptly left his firm in the middle of my custody case. Matt quickly got up to speed, and was everything I had hoped for and more. Matt always kept the children’s best interest in absolute focus and never let me astray. He gave solid ad...

A strong and practical defender
I was referred to Matt by a good friend who engaged his services for a number of years to great satisfaction. I’ve retained him for over a year and now I’d be happy to refer him to anyone who needs family legal services myself!
