I had a really bad divorce and custody dispute the second I hired Matt things went better and I felt protected. He is a wonderful advocate and great at navigating the confusing legal world. I’m really grateful he represented me and helped me. I recommend Matt to anybody that feels like they are helpless in their case.
Matt is the best. Some attorneys win by being aggressive, he wins with kindness, dignity and respect..even for the opposing party. He’s very humble, easy to get along with, knowledgeable. He was able to bring a contentious divorce to a settlement on record. I have also watched him in other trials and he is very calm and methodical in his speech, very respectful, and believe me judges respect you and give you more credibility if you have a kind, caring, trustworthy, respectful representative.

Custody Case and Divorce Case
Matthew was the best attorney I could have asked for. The custody case was a huge hassle from start to finish! He did more than I could have ever asked for! He went above and beyond to make sure that we got what I was asking for. Many late nights on the phone, many phone calls during the day, and many phone calls for him to make to get evidence and other things needed for this case.
The divorce case was pretty easy and Matthew did a wonderful job getting that put together for me.
Matthew handled every situation that arose very well! I can't say one bad thing about him! He was also very comforting with me!

Best attorney you won’t find better
Matt was absolutely wonderful and professional start to finish. I didn’t have the easiest custody case but him and his legal assistant bea absolutely took it on amazingly! They stayed in touch every single step of the way answered any and all questions we had and prepared us. During our hearing Matt was calm and collected which helped immensely he and bea were both very supportive and while the opposing attorney was all over the place Matt remained calm and hit every single key piece professionally. He calmed witnesses and was very professional. I will always recommend him to anybody seeking legal council because the result I got from him was the best outcome but the steps along the way we’re just as comfortable. I highly recommend Matt Chicklo I’m certain you will not find better representation!

I could not have chosen any better then Matthew
Having Matthew Chicklo represent me was a blessing and a rewarding experience. There is so much aggravation and emotional disturbance in a custody dispute and Matthew put me at ease. I am so grateful to him, he was is accommodating and gracious, not exactly the norm among attorneys but he is an exception. I have been in the throes of a custody battle for years and had very little confidence in the many attorneys I've spoken to over the years but Matthew
changed my perspective. I am very grateful that I was able to have the privilege of his representation and I have no doubt that anyone else would feel the same. I will always refer him when I am approached by someone who happens to ask if I were able to recommend a family law attorney. The Firm that he is in practice with is expedient as well.

"I endorse this lawyer. Matt is an excellent attorney who practices in Anchorage, Alaska. I originally met him as an opposing attorney in a domestic relations case. We ended up settling the case, but we were able to focus on the issues and problem solve instead of run up fees and costs. Matt continues to practice in Anchorage, and continues to produce excellent work."
