The right lawyer to get the results you need.

My ex wife wouldn’t let me see my daughter At all because of my past DUI but webbeking fought for me and now I see my daughter. I highly recommend him. They are very professional and helpful. VERY big thanks to them.

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.

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!

An excellent attorney

Matthew Webbeking has helped me out tremendously. He is a great attorney. I was in California on vacations and I called him because my child father's was trying to accuse me of kidnapping our daughter. The attorney helped me out to go to the court house and get all the documents that my ex had... already filed. My ex was requesting full custody of our child, and thank to Attorney Webbeking, the court did not grant it. I would highly recommend him, and every chance I get I tell people to go to him
