Matthew Wideman

Mr. Wideman represented me well for the first 13 months of my case. In his last 60 days of service before leaving the company early in July, he failed to complete a Form 14 (child support) and also did not submit a Parenting Plan as he was supposed to do. The lack of a correct Form 14 resulted in at... least a $45 a month additional in child support not owed. Opposing counsel filed a motion to enforce the agreement, both parties made on the record after 60 days of no response or work product from Mr. Wideman. As such opposing counsel's Form 14 and Parenting Plan were entered in judgement despite them not conforming to the agreement already on the record verbally. He has a good personality and I believe is genuinely a nice person but lacks in communication, organization and dependability. His inexperience is evident in these areas. I would not recommend Mr. Wideman.

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.
