Posted by anonymous | April 03, 2016 | Hired Attorney

DUI/DWI

Mr. Wood was consistently responsive and attentive to my specific legal needs. Mr. Wood was empathetic during my initial consultation and provided a mitigation strategy to implement immediately. The value of his strategy was proven with my favorable outcome. Mr. Wood was clear in setting expectat...ions and consistent in meeting them. Mr. Wood's knowledge and attention to detail were surpassed only by the level of personal service provided. I personally recommend Mr. Matthew L. Wood for any and all legal needs.

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.
