Great experience

I highly recommend hiring Matthew Webbeking + the Lawgena firm. This is the second time I have had to hire Matthew. I feel confident in his guidance, advise, and expertise. Let me start by saying I have never wanted to be in family court. My daughter's father has taken me to court for child support... (2x), and custody. He failed. Not only is my ex bitter and antagonistic, he is also extremely reckless. He falsified documents to hide his money, and lied in court. With the help of Matthew, we were able to show the court these discrepancies and have the case cancelled. Although difficult, I wanted to be sensitive to his mental health struggles, and try to retain some sort of copacetic relationship, for the sake of our daughter. Matthew has always understood this and advises me as such. I have always felt very informed on my options and choices, and have never felt pressured. Matthew, as well as Sara, have been great communicators. Matthew takes the time to explain to me all possible outcomes and scenarios, and Sara is very prompt with her replies. Every time a motion has been brought against me, I have won. I credit a lot of this to Matthew.

Efficient and great communication

We hired Matthew for a child support case as a father fighting for custody time with his daughter. Him and his assistants where very thorough and communicated well every step of the process. Recommend for anyone to hire; he will work for you and get the best outcome possible.

excellent Lawyer

Matthew Webbeking is an excellent Attorney. I had a difficult Child Support case. I was thinking the case didn't have a solution, but when I contacted him he told me he had the solution, and he was right. He looks for the best strategies to find the solutions and he always looks for the benefit of... his clients. I like how passionate he is about the work he does. I give the hight recommendation.

Excellent service

My divorce case was a very hard case, because I only had a few days to find and hire an Attorney.  Fortunately, Attorney Webbeking was able to take my case only two days before my Response with the court was due.  At the hearing, he defended me and the commissioner approved basically everything that ...I had requested, even though my ex-wife was accusing me of things I hadn’t done, and was also requesting a restriction order against me.  Thank to Attorney Webbeking, the court dismissed the Restriction order and accepted my Proposed Temporary Parenting Plan, and also ordered fair Child Support.  Now, the biggest problem of my divorce is over and I am able to enjoy my time with my children.
