I would highly recommend Matthew Albrecht as a lawyer

Mr. Albrecht surprised me by his ability to get me compensation for my injuries when I thought any funds would go towards medical costs. He & his staff were so conscientious and fast in communicating to me; answering all my questions clearly. The honest, personal approach of the staff & he made it p...ossible to continue in this case. I would highly recommend Matthew Albrecht & his staff to anyone. I am thankful for their kindness to me in a time of frustration & pain.

Positive Outcome in Employment Discrimination Case

I was a party to a lawsuit against the state of Washington, DSHS, Children's Adminjistration, relating to issues impacting Native American social workers. These issues were longstanding systemic and discriminatory mistreatment which resulted in disparate and negative outcomes for Indian social worke...rs and the Indian families and children assigned to them. The problems caused by this disparate mistreatment manifested in inequitable caseload assignments for Indian social workers resulting in poorer outcomes for Indian children and families. With the assistance of Matt Albrecht and his partner, George Ahrend, and after 7 days of trial which ended in a mistrial caused by the state's counsel, we were able to negotiate a successful settlement. Matt and George were committed, conscientious, and tenacious against a very large agency with a long history of obfuscation and delaying tactics. I have and will contintue to recommend Matt and George to others experiencing employment discrimination.

Review of Matthew Albrecht

He is always their for any questions I have and has gone out of his way to help my case.

Posted by greg | August 21, 2009 | Lawsuits & Disputes

Very Pleased Client

I retained Matt Albrecht as my civil attorney after he was highly recommended by one of my peers. Matt proved to be a very good attorney and I also highly recommend him. He treated me with respect and always made time to answer my questions. Even after our victory, he has kept in touch to check on... me and my family. Not only is he one heck of an attorney, he is also a great person.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
