EXCELLENT Family Law Attorney

Matthew and Sara are amazing!! By far the best team I have ever seen. After speaking with Matthew back in May 2017, I told him what I am looking for (child visitation and partial custody) and that I live in CA and my child lives in WA. He informed me that he has done several cases like mine before an...d said that my requests were reasonable and that the case should be pretty easy and straightforward. Oh my how we were wrong haha. My ex decided to fight us hard. But Matthew kept his word and fought (and continuing to fight) hard for my case. Everything that he said he would do, he has done. His assistant Sara has been amazing in keeping me updated with emails and phone calls. His rates are VERY reasonable and he is completely honest! I am very happy with Matthew and Sara. HIGHLY recommend them for any Family Court case.

Highly recommended

I highly recommend Lawgena Lawyers. On my first court hearing we had very good results. The attorney Matthew Webbeking was honest about the different ways that could go at the court hearing but with his experience we had a good result. I have to recognize the good work of his assistant Sara Torres ...she always was helpful, nice and professional. Thank you. Recomiendo ampliamente Lawgena Lawyers. En mi primera audiencia en la corte obtuvimos buenos resultados. El abogado Matthew Webbeking fue honesto sobre las diferentes posibilidades en que podría resultar la primera audiencia pero con su experiencia obtuvimos un buen resultado. Tengo que reconocer el buen trabajo que realiza su asistente Sara Torres ella siempre fue de mucha ayuda, agradable y profesional. Gracias

Excellent Lawyer

Thanks to Matthew Webbeking for helping me out with a parenting plan hearing, everything turned out great. He always kept me updated and gave me the best advises. I made the right decision of choosing him. Thank you Mr. Webbeking.

Best experience!

I had my son at young age with a man whose presence has been inconsistent for the last six years. When he served me for half custody I was extremely stressed out because I've heard horror stories about custody battles. I had less than two weeks to get a lawyer and was referred to Mathew by my best fr...iend. I left a message and received a callback within 30 minutes by his wonderful assistant who was very understanding of urgency of my situation. When I met with Matthew, I was frustrated and upset but he was very empathetic and patient with me. On my court date, I was shocked at how smooth and quick the entire process went. Needless to say, I left the court with everything I hoped for. I highly recommend Mathew and his team!

Top notch

Matthew did an incredible job on my case. This was the second go around for me with my parenting plan and things had not been going well. He was there every step of the way and worked deligently to get my child back in the state and back with me. He was also very reasonable financially throughout t...he whole process. His assistant Ana was also very thorough and was always willing to answer any questions I ever had.
