Matthew T. Blum

Matt Blum changed my life for the better. I will be grateful to his hard work, dedication, and faith in me as a client, and a human being for the rest of my life. While I can't share the personal details of my case here, I can say that Matt guided me through a truly difficult and messy divorce. He wa...s fair, honest, and direct. No issue or problem was too big. He knew what to do and when to do it. He always thought 10 steps ahead of me and helped me to understand the impact of some of my choices. He helped me understand my own value in this thing and make needed decisions that ultimately have benefited everyone involved, most importantly, my children. He helped me to find my courage and strength during one of the most challenging times of my life. Matt is an attorney that brings exactly what you will need to unravel the many layers, stresses, issues, and deep complexities of your divorce. He knows what he is doing and has a strong track record demonstrating this. Matt is genuine. He is kind, he cares, he listens, he is fair, he gives straight answers and realistic solutions that generate the results you will want. He can write too! Matt can take the details of your case, the evidence, the timelines, the history, the facts, the nuances, and weave documents that sing your truth. Matt is an attorney with top-flight communication skills and high-level understandings between actions and consequences coupled with a mastery of law to deliver your message with integrity, truth, and accuracy in a way that is fair to all sides involved. I feel peaceful and happy with the outcome of my case. I feel blessed and beyond grateful for the chance to move forward knowing that I had an attorney not only untangle me from what seemed an impossible mess but also serve as my advocate in a way that enabled me to finally become my own advocate, to stand up for myself, to face difficult times with grace and strength. I recommend Matt 100 percent. He is a winner. He is a light source in your darkest divorce process hour. You are not alone, and you can trust and will be in good hands with Matt Blum and his entire team at Arwood & Blum.

Matt Blum and his team are amazing! They have helped my family tremendously through my may custody battle! He has helped my squash some really awful untrue allegations that could've ruined the future of my oldest child and myself, and has helped me to regain my parental rights. We still have a ways t...o go but I wouldn't be where I am today without the help and support at and his team! Matt Blum is by far the best attorney I've ever had and I highly recommend him!! Thank you Matt and everyone at Arwood and Blum PLLC!!

I had the best experience with this firm. I had been dealing with another firm for two months (going no where fast) and Mr. Blum handled my case in two weeks!!! He was fast, efficient, and totally professional. It was amazing how another firm couldn't do their job for two months, and Mr. Blum got the... job done while making sure my needs were all met. I will always recommend him and will be going back if I need him again!!! Zoe

The Superior Court of Washington ordered Matt Blum to handle a transfer of money for me as part of a divorce proceeding in Washington State. The Final Divorce Order stated that the husband was to be awarded a fixed amount from the wife’s retirement plan. The amount was be transferred via a qualified ...domestic relations order (QDRO). The problem occurred when Mr. Blum failed to follow the court order or consult with me and transferred the monies into a “variable” account, and not a “fixed” account, which lost money at the end of the transaction. When asked to reimburse the aggrieved party for the loss the firm declined citing legal technicalities extraneous to the court order.

I've worked with three different lawyers for Family Law in Vancouver over a period of 12 years. Matt is the best I've had the pleasure to work with. He does his research and actually reads the responses I send him. He provides accurate input in the direction and how he sees your case going. He and hi...s office are very responsive to your communications be it email or phone. In the court room, he's calm, even handed and gets results. I can't say enough about his abilities. My case isn't a easy one to work and he has out performed them all!
