My first experience with a lawyer

Absolutely satisfied. Matt Johnson saw me through my first personal injury case without flaw. He kept me well informed and my nerves at bay. Though my case took a long time to settle, Matt was able to nearly triple the opening offer. I felt my case was cared for, rather than a 'back burner' deal. I w...ill look to him solely for legal representation in the future.

we can't thank Matt enough

Matt and everyone at Ron Meyer's have been more then amazing. Helping out in every way possible. Also getting the lawyers on the other side to stop trying to delay everything. I would never use a different lawyer

Honest, Creative, a Straight-shooter

Matt joined the firm and was brought in on my case just as we were going to negotiation. He got up-to-speed very quickly and was very helpful in our reaching a great settlement prior to going to trial. I found Matt to be honest, creative, and a straight-shooter--he gets my heartfelt thanks and ...a strong recommendation to anyone who wants an attorney you can trust.

Exceeded Expectations

Mr. Johnson represented me for a motor vehicle collision and very much exceeded my expectations. The person who hit me was uninsured and Mr. Johnson worked with my insurance company to make sure all my medical expenses were taken care of. He made the process understandable and always kept me infor...med.
