I sought legal advise from another law office but was basically turned away. When I consulted with Matthew Faulkner I felt like I was treated as a extended family member in need. Matthew went above and beyond to help me with my legal matter. You couldn't ask for better representation. I highly recommend Faulkner & Faulkner Law Offices.

A friend of mine referred me to Mr. Faulkner as she once needed a lawyer she could trust and only had great things to say about him. I met with Mr. Faulkner and instantly connected with him. He understood that it was a very stressful time for me as I was trying to recover from my car accident. He ensured me that he would handle all the legal aspects of my case so I could focus on my health. Through the entire process, Mr. Faulkner kept me informed about the details of my case, included me in decisions and shared with me his suggestions based on my best interest. His goal was my goal! He was very knowledgeable and was a man of action. I was not only extremely pleased with the outcome of the case; I also found Mr. Faulkner to be an honest lawyer who believed in me, my case, and his own ability to obtain justice. I would highly recommend!

It's rare to find a professional that has the amazing ability to get results, respond to need and concerns and do so in a kind and compassionate way. Mr. Faulkner has this ability to balance people skills with a vast knowledge and experience of law to not only achieve clients goals, but also do so in a way that takes into consideration the emotional roller coaster that legal issues take us on. I recommend him wholeheartedly for any legal needs anyone has had. He and his offices have been profoundly helpful to me and my family.

Matthew Faulkner represented me in a personal injury law suit. Matthew put in months of hard work preparing for my trial. He is a very diligent hard working attorney who pays attention to details. Matthew was always personable and professional. He went out of his way for me in every way. He took the time to answer all of my questions and explained the legal process. I always felt confident in his knowledge and abilities as my attorney. I highly recommend Matthew Faulkner to my family and closest friends and would use him again in a heartbeat.

I have utilized Matthew James Faulkner twice in the last 11 years. He is very knowledgeable and helpful regarding the matter in which he represented me on. I received a very lucrative settlement, and was pleased regarding the outcome. I've walked in several times without an appointment just to get an update regarding my case, and Matthew if there made time to sit with me and discuss my case. I have been very pleased with Mr. Faulkners determination to settle my matter prompt, but with my best interest at hand.

I shopped around a great deal while looking in Bakersfield for a quality attorney. It wasn't until I found Faulkner and Faulkner that I truly felt comfortable, safe, and as though someone was actually on my side. There was no hidden agenda or confusion with Matthew. He was clear, concise, and kind in a way that let me know that I would be taken care of. I received frequent updates that explained what the insurance companies were doing and how they were handling it. I had two simultaneous cases being handled by Faulkner Law and both were handled with care by this fair and friendly lawyer. The cases had some complexity as they involved three different insurance companies. Each of which kept trying to pass the buck. Matt and Jim both took care of my case and kept the companies honest. I cannot stress enough how much I appreciate the help I got from this team. If you are looking for a good Bakersfield attorney and a good human being, look no further than Matthew Faulkner.

My wife and I were in a car accident, parked at a red light and rear-ended by someone who was texting instead of driving. Mr. Faulkner met with us immediately, stepped us through a consultation, and quickly went to work on our case. In little more than a few days, Mr. Faulkner has us back in his office with information about the case, and how to proceed. He walked us through the step by step process in small claims court, how to file paperwork and where to file, since he felt it would be more beneficial to us and our case. In about a month, he searched the case again, saw nothing had been done with it (we were waiting for doctor's notes), and did a follow-up to ask how he could be of more service to aid us.
Mr. Faulkner was a tremendous help. Even though he had no financial stake in our case, he still provided us with the service like we were paying clients. I highly recommend Mr. Faulkner.

My grandmother was implanted with a faulty hip device and as a result, had to endure excruciating pain on a daily basis, experienced serious difficulty in getting around and we were told that she would have to have the faulty implant removed, and replaced. What we experienced was stressful both emotionally and financially and we were incredibly frustrated that a surgery that should have increased her quality of life was exposing her to such unnecessary risk and hardship. When we expressed these frustrations to her surgeon, he suggested we contact the Faulkners and I am so so glad we did. Matthew was sympathetic to all of the difficulties we were facing and he was able to answer our questions about my grandmother’s options for recourse, and who would be held responsible. He kept us well updated on the status of my grandmother’s case, and never made us feel like our millions of questions and concerns were a burden. Matthew and all of the Faulkners are wonderful people and great attorneys; I highly recommend anybody with questions regarding a personal injury case contact him.

I called for an initial consult regarding my case. Mr Faulkner did not beat around the bush. Was direct, and straight to the point with his great advice.
Went above and beyond my expectations. He gave me step by step directions on how to go about resolving my issues, which showed he had my best interest at heart. Very informative & knowledgeable.

Matthew and his firm which includes his Mother and Father could not have been better. We were truly blessed to have him represent us. Compassion, understanding and sympathy are only three words out of many I could use to discribe the personal attention we received from Matthew. His expertise and passion for justice served us from beginng to a successful conclusion. Had it not been for Matthew and his relentless pusuit of fairness, we would have been left wanting. The professional conduct exhibited by Matthew was evident from the initial filing through adjournment. What started as an attorney relationship ended up as a friendship. We will recommend Matthew and his firm to everyone we know.
