Posted by Joe | October 27, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Child Custody

Professional Attorney

Matthew Hayes in my opinion is one of the best attorney’s that I have ever had. There are some attorneys that seam like they know what they are doing and there is Matthew who knows what he is doing. Matthew knows how to make sure that the points in the case with specific information in show to help t...he burden of proof. Matthew help me gain Sole legal and primary physical custody of my children. With me being the dad in that case it was a challange. My ex-wife had used our children to make me look like a monster. Which was not true and was proven that I did not commit child abuse. I am very thankfull for Matt and his he has helped the children and I have a relationship again after two years of not seeing them. Please trust Matthew Hayes to represent you correctly.

Experienced and caring attorney

My case with my daughter was very complex and went on for over a year. I was facing my ex who shelled out money for the most expensive and well known lawyer in our community. This was in 2013/2014. Out of the (I believe) 17 motions put in we only lost one, which was the holiday schedule (a minor lo...ss). I was facing losing shared custody of my child and Mr.Hayes fought night and day for me, and always trusted and believed in me. Because of winning the case against my ex, my life has turned for the better since then and I owe a lot of it to Mr. Hayes. He is not just an amazing lawyer, but an amazing human being.
