I am thankful someone referred to me to Matthew Rowan

I was in a business partnership that had gone south. I needed resolution so my family and I could get on with our lives and move forward in our business ventures. Matthew was recommended to me by a friend and I'm so thankful for their advice. His council was spot on, his professionalism was impecc...able, and his staff was kind and attentive. My matter was resolved out of court, and I highly recommend Matthew Rowan.

Gets the job done.

Matthew Rowan is exceptional. He’s does what he says he’ll do. He came through for me and my family when other attorneys failed and overcharged or were too” weak” to take my case. If you’re looking for a great lawyer, look no further. He’s completely candid a forthright from the first moment. H...im and his firm not only won my case, but earned my trust and respect aswell. Plus, his assistant Brian is amazing and a true blessing should you ever have any concerns or questions. I would strongly recommend Rowan and his team.

Straight forward/ extremely knowledgeable

Matt was a great help with my situation and helped me come to an alternative quickly. Exceeded my expectations of his involvement and backed up his knowledge straight from the books. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Best Attorney Around! Thanks Mat!

Ok so I received a Speeding Ticket from a Photo Radar Van while driving through Oregon last year, to most it wouldn’t be a big deal but to me who has a job that is very strict on speeding tickets and would keep me from any promotions, this was a game changer. Frantically I started looking up Attorney...s to handle my case, I was turned down by 4 attorneys who stated the Photo Radar tickets are very very difficult to get dismissed and that I was better off just paying the ticket and receiving a ding on my record, literally last but not least I called Mathew, he listened to my case and accepted the challenge and although I was very sceptical that he would be able to beat the case I knew it was worth a chance. Mathew kept me updated throughout the process as he knew how anxious I was to hear an outcome. A few months in and after he put a lot of time and effort in to my case for what it was ( a traffic ticket) Mathew called me today to let me know my case was completely dismissed!!!! I could not be more relieved thank you so much Matt! This is a 100% real review and actually my first review ever but I knew this guy deserved some recognition. ANYONE looking for an attorney for any reason would be a fool to not Call Mathew. Once again thanks man I could not be happier that I called your Firm!

Very Professional and Helpful

In March of this year I found myself in a bit of a legal bind with a DUI. I was referred to Matt through another attorney in Medford and I couldn't be happier for that referral. Matt was courteous, professional, and extremely helpful in guiding me through all aspects of my case. He took the time to l...isten to my concerns and did his due diligence in gathering all the facts of the case. I am very appreciative of his time and help with this matter.I would definitely recommend Matt to anyone seeking smart and sound legal help.
