I speak from experience and I would have to say I was hesitant at first since this was the first time our family has dealt with this kind of situation. I came across him through an Attorney referral and lo and behold, I felt like God has answered our prayers. Matt guided us all through out the process, we submitted all the paperwork that is needed for our case and we decided to set aside all our doubts. You have to be willing to listen and control your emotions and trust that your case will be closed. We are now in the process of reunification and Matt has taught me to be calm as a parent and trust the process. A huge thank you to this Firm!

My son was taken from his mother by DCFS I didn’t know this happened until 4 and half month after he was placed in a strangers house ! And this was the second DCFS case the first one I was the victim that didn’t press charges or show up to the case because my logic was I was the victim in that case so how do I need to show up ? Well I was very wrong and my rights to my son were limited to 1 supervised visit per year! So for 4 years I was basically paying her to see my kid and I was paying large sums of money to do so. When I showed up to court, the court provided me with so free but terrible lawyer I left court and was reaching out to her and her office with no response calling 4-5 times a day for over a week and that wasn’t gonna work! So I literally meet or had phone conversations with every attorney that deals with these type of cases and I only had a good feeling about Matt so I retained him he promised to get me full custody of my son and we came up with a solid game plan and instructed me every step of the way he was also was my therapist and a very patient friend because I too was in the system when I was a child so I was very hard to witness my child going through the same traumatic situation , Long story short Sole physical custody and the mom only gets a 4 hour visit per month this was my dream and it’s a reality now !!!

Mr Koohanim went above and beyond for my case. My appointed attorney couldn't bother to contact me so I searched for another attorney to represent me. Mr Koohanim managed to encourage him to do the right thing and contact me. Very grateful to him!! If you so-called attorney gives me any more grief, Mr Koohanim agreed to represent me. He is a true professional!

Very thankful for the time and attention on my case! My case is very complex and multifaceted. Attorney Matt has remained unfazed and calm throughout this whole process even when put in situations he was not prepared for due to DPSS changing things up on the spot at the last minute which was out of his control. Still, he remained professional kind and overall got the job done! My case went to trial, Matt took note of everything I said and shared with him during the months awaiting trial and unloaded it all during trial eloquently. His desire to serve everyone he can is truly inspiring and shows his passion. He is talented and skilled. Communication was flexible and after hours at time which I appreciated.
I appreciate his strategy and look forward to working with him in upcoming hearings aswell. As his website says, he pretty much does it ALL! My son is home and well and my family and I are all so thankful! Thank you Matt! Appreciate your time, effort and support. See ya soon and thank you thank you thank you! If you’re looking for a trustworthy, honest rep that knows his stuff #gowithKoohanim

I know this is a difficult time for those who are reading and searching for a good attorney to defend you in a criminal case or CPS Case. I can only speak on the behalf of Matt koohanim. And which I hired Matt to work for me. First off I have to say that his profession in these areas is very personal to him and he take it very personal. I know from experience that it is not about the money with him. Matt has a big heart and applies it with his job he is more into proving the truth in your case Matt has won a criminal case for me for child endangerment and is now working towards getting my baby home from the CPS he knows the process and procedures to the element of your surprise. So if you are looking for an attorney and reading this review you can stop now and give him a call

Matt Koohanim is an excellent lawyer. He takes the time to go read through your case and go through all the details, and he gives you his honest opinion on what you should do. He helped me tremendously on my situation. If it weren't for Mr. Koohanim, I would've lost the chance to get my son back. He is a voice that stands up for you and fights for you. I have had a very good experience with him and I highly recommend that anyone give him a try. Thank you for all that you have done for me!

Matt Koohanim is an extraordinary lawyer throughout my experience with CPS. As a foster parent assisting a poor-English speaking individual in their case, we initially had a negative experience with another law firm, Vincent Davis, who charged exorbitant fees without making any progress. However, once Matt took over it, everything started to change for the better.
What impressed me about Matt was his professionalism and dedication. Even before we hired him, he provided valuable advice and guidance. He's responsive to our texts and emails, incredibly knowledgeable, providing us with all the necessary information. Matt was straightforward, explaining everything clearly and patiently throughout the process.
I am grateful to have found him, I encourage anyone who needs legal assistance to consider him. He truly goes above and beyond to provide top-notch service which can potentially avoid lots of hassle and unnecessary costs!

I am pleased to write a review for attorney Matt, who provided exceptional legal representation during my case involving Child Protective Services (CPS). After a disappointing experience with a previous attorney, I made the decision to hire Matt, and it turned out to be a wise choice.
From the very beginning, I found Matt to be highly attentive and genuinely interested in understanding the nuances of my case. He took the time to actively listen to my concerns and fears, which immediately instilled confidence in his abilities. His empathetic approach, coupled with his extensive legal knowledge, allowed him to navigate through the complexities of my situation with expertise and precision.
One aspect that truly stood out was Matt's unwavering commitment to my case. He demonstrated a genuine care for my well-being and the outcome of the proceedings. It was evident that he invested considerable time and effort into thoroughly analyzing the details of my case, leaving no stone unturned. His meticulous attention to detail, coupled with his persuasive advocacy, played a significant role in achieving the desired outcome of having my case dismissed.
I must also acknowledge the invaluable support provided by Matt's paralegal, Jenny Lopez. Her professionalism and dedication were evident throughout the entire process. Jenny consistently went above and beyond to ensure that all necessary paperwork was handled efficiently and accurately. Her prompt responses to my inquiries and her ability to provide updates on the progress of my case were greatly appreciated.
Overall, my experience with attorney Matt and his paralegal Jenny was nothing short of excellent. Their commitment to my case, combined with their professionalism and expertise, ultimately resulted in a positive outcome. I highly recommend Matt's services to anyone seeking legal representation, particularly in matters involving CPS.

We had two attorneys that represented us for DUI case my wife had, they just charged us lots of money and did not do anything except creat problems. We met with Mr Koohinam and found him very caring, cartious, knowledgeable and professional. He was retained the same day, repressed us and got our case resolved in less than 30 days with a resolution that was very positive and acceptable. We are very pleased with his services & definitely recommend him, it is very hard to find an attorney with his character & professionalism.

I had a specific case that was lingering in my account and would pop up here and there. Even though the case was older and from a youthful negligence it was never properly dealt with. I sought advice from Mr. Koohanim and he advised me on how to handle the case to get it removed from record as it was already a closed case.
