Not only did John Haines Law Firm provide the service and quality they promised, they exceeded my expectations. They never left me hanging. They always took the time to explain something that I didn’t understand without making me feel like I was imposing on them. Their expertise was only exceeded by their respectful attitude toward me. They were very considerate of my input and worked to have the best outcome possible for me. I am so appreciative of their hard work on my behalf.

John wrote up a prenup for me. He was very easy to work with, easy to get ahold of, explained everything throughly and had great communication. Pricing was also straightforward and very reasonable. Would highly recommend John for anyone looking for a family lawyer.

Your search is over. Stop reading attorney reviews now and call John. I promise, you won't be sorry.
My divorce experience was a long, painful nightmare using two different attorneys. While I recognized the need for extra time due to the pandemic and court closures, my first attorney failed to respond to any type of communication. Phone calls were useless and it took me 5 email attempts to get even one response. My second attorney was more responsive to my communication, however, slow to make any moves. We ended up in court in front of a judge which was a stressful and unnecessary ending to an already irritating process. I swear my divorce could've been completed in 30 days had I have had a supportive team behind me.
Fast forward to the need to relocate out of state (like across the country out of state) with my two children and I knew I needed to find better representation. Someone who was truly prepared to fight for me as I knew it wouldn't be easy. John was recommended to me in the middle of my divorce by several people, but at that point it was too late in the case. I knew that he would be the person to turn to when it came time for this next fight because of the successful outcomes of the recommending parties.
John did not disappoint. His responses were prompt and full of useful information. He kept me informed of the process, deadlines and delays. He had a plan mapped out for me right away and made sure I understood what I needed to do in order to move the process along. He was familiar with the laws, gave me his expert opinion on what to do legally once I had moved out of state and helped me through a surprisingly quick and painless mediation process. I'm writing this after my cross country move that went off without a hitch truly thanks to John's expertise, professionalism and solid work ethic.
I would recommend him 1,000,000 times over to anyone who is looking for an attorney. I honestly don't think you can find anyone better.

If I had three words to describe John Haines, it would be professional, knowledgeable and blunt. Divorce is always a sticky situation, but John navigated it like it was child's play. He's been doing this for a long time and if you think the retainer is too much to pay, it isn't. He chews gum and shoots from the hip. This does not mean he's cocky. He's just confident and that's what you need in a lawyer. Just listen to him, do what he tells you to do and it will be all over before you know it. He really isn't one of these sleazeball lawyers who is looking to overbill for every e-mail or call. I saw my ex's financials and he got billed 3-5 times a month. I never got a bill until the very end. He's there if you need him, but check your problem at the door to make sure you really need him. Divorce is emotional. He's not Dr. Phil. He's there to get you out of the predicament you're in and if it goes to court, fight for you. I appreciated his demeanor and when you hire him, you will too.
The work was exceptional, the price was fair, the stories were hilarious and I'd give him and the boys in the office 5 stars any day of the week. Outstanding work!

Jed represented in my divorce. Despite my best efforts to sabotage his excellent work he was able to achieve a fantastic result. He came highly recommended by another attorney which I had used previously. I would recommend him to anyone needing legal counsel.

I heard about Jed through a family friend who also used him as her divorce attorney. So I figured I would have a consultation with him. After our consultation, I was VERY satisfied and knew that I wanted to hire him. This was back in 2018. He required the retainer, which was expected, and used that retainer towards the expenses. He was very professional, listened to my needs, had my sons best interest in mind, and maintained his integrity throughout my entire case. Not only did he handle my divorce, custody, and parenting plan case, he also handled my personal injury case, got me the most that he could, and knowing full well that he would get his share, so he made sure after giving him what was owed, I still had more than enough to cover costs. I don’t like saying I have an attorney “in my back pocket”, but I enjoy having the relief of knowing I have an attorney or any legal matters. Jed comes HIGHLY recommended by me, and will be the only attorney I use.

When my career was altered by my company's decision to release me, I was devastated. I felt like it was wrong and reached out to an attorney friend of mine. She recommended Heather as an expert in the field. She could not have been more correct. Heather was amazing. She communicated with me in every aspect of the process and we ultimately got the outcome we desired. She was professional at every turn and always explained the situation as it developed. I would recommend her 100% She allowed me and my family to have peace with a very tough situation in our lives. I will always appreciate what she did for us. Thank you Heather.

Heather is a fantastic attorney that I would highly recommend. She has assisted our company with business disputes, contract revision and general business matters. We have found her to be very knowledgeable in her practice area and a consummate professional. In the dispute she handled for our company, she showed herself to be a skilled negotiator working with the opposing side and other involved parties to achieve the outcome we had wanted. One of the things I appreciate most about working with Heather is her accessibility and quick response time. Her accessibility and constant contact during a dispute gave us the guidance we needed to resolve a very stressful and potentially costly situation. She definitely goes the extra mile for her clients.

Camellia Saunders is knowledgeable, intelligent, confident, and passionate about her client cases. She took my case and started on it right away.

Divorce and custody cases are painful, difficult, and seemingly hopeless. Mr. Barnett took my extremely complex and difficult case and achieved what I never believed possible. He has built a team of talented professionals that help you navigate this gut-wrenching journey with compassion and understanding of what you and your family are struggling to get through. He is a well-respected expert amongst other lawyers and members of the legal field, yet he never forgets to keep his client aware of what is transpiring and answers countless emails and calls in ways that help the average person understand what is occurring. He understands what everyone is going through and never stops trying to do what is right for the family. Because of him and his team's devotion and expertise, my sons are now thriving, and the trajectory of their lives has been changed for the better. I will never even consider any other lawyer to represent me. I could not ask for more from a lawyer. He has strong character, solid values, and an unrelenting work ethic that is not matched in his field. We owe him more than money could ever repay.

I hired Ben for a very long child custody battle for my daughter after hearing great things about him from a close family friend attorney. Throughout the whole process from the paternity test to the parenting plan, Ben was always doing whatever he could to make sure my little girl would have her daddy in her life. He led and guided me through the toughest time of my life; a time where I wasn't sure if I would get to see my little girl. Ben was always at peak performance no matter how big or small the issue was. Through the next 6 or so years of my daughter's life, I have used Ben many times and he has never let me down.

I can't thank Ben Barnett enough for his hardwork and willingness to go the extra mile to help me. Ben is very well educated and a master of his craft. He got me the results I was looking for. In times like these you have to choose wisely when it comes to who will represent you. I couldn't have picked a better lawyer. I will recommend the Barnett Firm to everyone.

Carin Brio Law Office helped me setup a Trust for my
estate. I didn't have much background knowledge about
Trusts, and they were very patient with me and answered
any questions I had. As with the creation of any lenghty
legal document, there were a few hiccups along the way,
but they were handled appropriately and efficiently
by Carin and Paxton, her paralegal. I would definitely
consider them again for further legal tasks I might
encounter in the future.

Shallon worked my case for two+ years. She is reliable, smart, quick, detail oriented and organized. I couldn't have asked for a better advocate for myself. Going through a very complicated divorce with children, assets and with an ex that lies and tried misleading the court during several trials- his attorney encouraged shady behavior and Shallon caught everything. She knows the law like the back of her hand, knows the likely outcome and what to spend our time on. My scenario surfaced with the absolute best possible outcome and I know for a fact that wouldn't have happened without Shallon. I had Interviewed other attorneys but felt misunderstood and would have put me and my family in hardship had I gone those directions. Shallon is personable and was very timely at moving things along when I expressed concern for the oppositions slow pace. Her advice on every matter was on point. You will not regret hiring her. Money well spent.

Shallon is personal and efficient. She pays attention to large and small detail alike. She works very hard for her clients. Shallon worked on my custody case for over a year and I always felt like she made me a priority and that she genuinely cared about the outcome. I truly believe by choosing this attorney I ended up with the best case senecio at the end of a 12 month challenging custody case (*including having opposing party held responsible for my attorney fees).

Misty is the BEST of the BEST!
I was referred to her by a friend and I am so thankful I reached out. No one wants to think of divorce, parenting plans and the financials of the process; but Misty was there every step of the way. I knew I could trust and depend on her during this very terrifying, stressful and intimidating situation. She always explained each process to me and answered any questions I had. She had myself and my children's best interest in mind. Misty is hardworking, knowledgeable, ethical and detail-oriented; on top of all of that she listens with compassion! I have no reservations in recommending Misty Harris! (her team is also AMAZING)

Family cases involving children can be emotionally charged and stressful, but Emily's calm and professional demeanor helped ease the tension and anxiety.

I had recently divorced and my daughter's custody arrangement was not going well. She was back and forth way too much and she wasn't happy. I wanted to go back to court for a better parenting plan but my original attorney was on a leave of absence. I spoke with several attorneys but each one of them told me "it was too soon" to go back to court. Emily took my case and in the mean time, my daughter was falling apart with the current plan. We went back to court and we are currently working on a new plan. Emily was a blessing to me and my daughter. I highly recommend her. She is a fighter and she has become a friend to us.

I worked with Charlie on two different matters, first a protective order and then later child custody. He was wonderful. He was very informative, and he has a compassionate demeanor and sense of humor that helped reduce the stress of court proceedings. I appreciate the advice he gave during negotiations for child custody and child support. I was planning to push the case to court, but on his advice I came to an agreement. I’m very happy with how things stand today, and I’ll use him again should the need arise.

Will Holloway and his team were amazing. They assisted me and fought for me through the process of my case. Not only did they work on my case and help me win even more than I expected, Will and his team showed genuine concern for my well-being through a very difficult and stressful time. The thing that stood out to me the most about Will was that he told me early on that he felt I had a very strong case with the honest truth and facts of my story, and he was right. Thank you Will and team for not only helping me win, but begin the process of putting my life back together again.

Divorce was not something I wanted. Of course, nothing I ever hoped or planned for. I was hurt, sad and scared of what was to come. And now I had to take the huge task of finding the best divorce attorney in Williamson County. When it was time, I took the recommendation of meeting Will Holloway from one of my dearest friends. Thank goodness she was on point.
I was very direct and organized with Will and he never once let me down. His communication skills were impeccable and timely. His willingness to get what I wanted done in my time frame was met at every way. I never doubted any information or advice he gave me. I always felt he had my best interests at hand with the utmost sincerity and efficiency.
At our final meeting, after the divorce was finalized, Will gave me his final “talk” and it was what I describe as a “pep talk”. His words were kind and insightful. I have to admit there was a small part of me that was sad that I would no longer be meeting with Will again. I found his services to be extremely professional, helpful and most importantly, genuine.

After 21 years of marriage, I found myself in an unwanted divorce. I interviewed a total of five local attorneys in the Franklin area, but knew after my first meeting with Will, he would be the attorney to represent me. You will not find a better attorney who will take the time to understand your individual circumstances and navigate you through potentially one of the most stressful and emotional events of your life, especially when there are children involved. He will give you sound advice and offer a common-sense strategy to get you through the divorce while you’re in the maelstrom of emotions that can cloud your judgement. Will was fully engaged from the beginning to the end. In my particular case, there was an affair involved but instead of making that the central theme, Will directed my focus on the best outcome for my children and me. He explained right from the start there are basically two paths to pursue in a divorce; one is contested and the other is uncontested. In the end, both yield the same results with a divorce decree but the emotional toll and cost would be dramatically different. He is very conscientious of your needs and will not frivolously spend your money. This is what sets Will apart from anyone else you’re considering for representation; he genuinely cares about your ability to move forward with your life post-divorce. Trust me when I tell you this will make a huge difference once the dust settles. I am so grateful for Will’s guidance throughout the entire process and completely satisfied with the outcome. I highly recommend his professional services without any hesitations.

We contacted Thompson Burton Law to find an attorney to represent us in a Family Law matter. Our case was paired with Sarah Perky. Sarah did a great job helping us with a child visitation/support matter even though we reside in another state. Throughout the process, Sarah and her assistants were efficient, effective and kept the lines of communication flowing. I would highly recommend Sarah and or her office to provide legal assistance.

The divorce process is hard enough. I can't imagine what it would be like without a great team to help with the incredible detail that it takes to ensure you are protected. By the time the divorce was final I felt that I had an extended family with Sarah and her team. I never doubted that they were looking out for the best interest of my kids, and they would fight to protect my time with them. The process was efficient, as painless as I can imagine the legal process can be, and I know that I've been well served in every aspect.

I never thought I'd need a divorce lawyer but when I found myself pregnant going through a divorce I knew I'd need one that would advocate for me and my baby boy. From the minute I met Phil Newman we just clicked. His warm, caring nature together with his no-nonsense, cut-to-the-chase way makes him a bulldog of a lawyer. In the end, the way he fights for what's best for the CHILD is what sets him apart. And he's had to put me in my place a few times, but I've always been better as a result.
Now having been divorced 8+ years and going through several post-divorce rounds of parenting plan changes, I can't recommend Phil and his team highly enough.
Especially Alisha Warner who is my other lawyer and who has walked with me as well through the past 8 years. She is an incredibly hard worker and has gut instincts that recently helped me settle a really hard situation in mediation.
I can't recommend the whole team at Puryear, Newman & Morton highly enough - they are ALL incredible to work with and ultimately fight for what's best for everyone in the long run.

Phil was highly recommended to me by a long-time friend who had recently gone through a divorce and was in a very similar situation to mine. I have two young boys and was the breadwinner in my household, which is very relevant because I had a hard time accepting the role reversal of my situation. I knew within 5 minutes of sitting down with Phil and his paralegal, Julie, that I didn’t need to look any further. Phil is a busy lawyer (which means he’s good lawyer) so he can be hard to pin down at times, BUT he was always there when I needed him – responding to texts and phone calls at night, early morning and over the weekend. He and Julie not only counseled me through the technical aspects of the divorce, but the emotional aspects as well. Phil would empathize with me and validate my feelings, but he also told me what I needed to hear even if it wasn’t what I wanted to hear. Thankfully, we were able to settle my divorce in mediation. Phil took time to explain the mediation process to me and ensure I was well prepped – both materially and emotionally. The mediation was 11 grueling hours . There was one point when we were negotiating alimony – a real sticking point for me – when Phil looked me straight in the eye and said, “Tracy, that’s a good deal. You need to take it.” I didn’t like it but I took it. No questions asked. And, this is representative of how my whole process went. Throughout one of the most difficult periods of my life when I was at my most vulnerable, Phil was my rock and my protector. I felt strong because I had Phil and Julie in my corner. On one hand, I’m grateful my divorce didn’t end up in court, but on the other hand, I would have loved to see him in action in that setting. He’s strong advocate, great listener and fierce negotiator, but best of all…he’s an overall wonderful human. I would recommend Phil over and over again.

Stuart exhibited in-depth knowledge of family law and the local legal scene. He was thorough and thoughtful in his brainstorming and recommendations. Stuart cut around the fluff quickly and and was able to get to the crux of the matter deftly. He does not back down easily and was staunch when the occasion called for it.
Stuart's professionalism in the form of timely and succinct communications, coupled with his personable approach put us at ease and made a difficult time slightly more manageable.
We would certainly work with Stuart again should the need arise.

It is so difficult to find a trustworthy attorney. After meeting with several different ones, we were blessed to find Stuart. We hired him for a case of termination of parental rights and adoption of minors. It is needless to say the case resulted in our favor. There are two important sides of Stuart professionalism, on one hand there is the preparation, since the first meeting we realize he had an ample knowledge of the law, however what was more astonishing and made the difference, is the exceptional preparation he makes at every step of the case. Stuart was never improvising, he had calculated every step, he was always ahead of the game. On the other hand, Stuart will talk to you with honesty and will explain every step of the process, you will find him always available to talk and resolve all of your questions. He is indeed a good honest person with excellent skills and high competence.

I found Orion thru a friend and sat down with him in 2016,because I had a BM who was withholding parenting time and making tons of questionable decisions. Throughout the "battle" he was always there with good advice. We settled on a 50/50 parenting time plan in 2017 knowing we would be back in court soon. A few months later, just as he called it, we were back in court and got emergency custody. 6 months later I walked out of the hearing with full custody of my daughter, and she is safe now. I'm glad my little girl had Orion helping me fight for her, I couldn't have done it alone. When in doubt, listen to his advice, I'm glad I did. Thank you Orion, we'll never forget what you did for us.

I was referred to Neil specifically because he is skilled in complex divorce litigation. My divorce case was lengthy, difficult, often frightening, and highly toxic. You don't want just any divorce attorney for such a case. Neil is tough when he needs to be, but in my case he also worked for the best interests of my children and made every effort to reduce conflict when he could. He's not simply an "attack dog" out to "win" your case. (So often, when that's the case, it's the children who lose.) Ultimately, his aim was to help reach a settlement and the best possible custody arrangement under extra difficult circumstances, and also to save me tens of thousands of dollars in potential trial costs. His job was not easy. In the midst of an out-of-control situation, I came to trust his counsel. If you need knowledgable, strong, and highly skilled representation, Neil should be at the top of your list to consider.

I was on the search for a lawyer that I could not only trust but one that I knew understood my heart for the situation and would fight hard for me to get it. From the very beginning Dana spent time learning the whole backstory of my case as well as listening to what I wanted most out of the situation as well as my fears. He was very clear about what might/might not happen and what to expect. On the day of I was impressed with the way he quickly made sure that the other party knew what I would and wouldn’t stand for making the rest of the process easy. He maneuvered through every obstacle with ease while explaining everything to me along the way. I have no regrets and was able to leave feeling like I was represented perfectly. HIGHLY recommend.

I called Dana and hired him to represent a family member in a DUI case. Dana looked at all of the discovery materials and one thing didn’t quite feel right to him. He requested follow up documentation from the DA’s office, who stalled and deferred for close to a year, postponing court dates multiple times. Dana didn’t back off, and the DA finally admitted that he didn’t have the media Dana was requesting.
He negotiated a favorable plea agreement that was far better than what we thought was possible. I’d hire Dana again without hesitation.

If you need an attorney, Dana is the one you need to hire. Dana was referred to me from a friend and WOW, what a great choice. From the first time we spoke on the phone until my court date was over, he was top notch. I've used many attorneys throughout life and he is by far the best I've used. If you are in need of a great attorney that will put your mind at ease, look no further. I had a probation violation in Franklin and it couldn't have went better. The way he handled himself in the courtroom to the way he always responded to my texts/calls, I never felt alone in my case and always felt he was fighting for me. He never once judged me but only defended me. He is a straight shooter and will get to the point. Definitely look no further if you are in need of an attorney. I will be using and referring Dana from now on with any case. Just nice to have someone actually fight for you and your case. You will be so happy you made the choice to hire Dana for any legal needs.

The judge just signed my modification. I am very pleased with the outcome. My case was complicated and Jonathan and his team were amazing through the whole process. From the beginning Jonathan was on my side. He made sure I understood the law. He explained things multiple times. He answered his phone. I talked directly to him. That is rare. He fought for me and that's what I needed. Divorce is no fun. He made things easier and that made all the difference. A big thank you to you and your amazing team!

Patrick Crawley was already busy enough when I called looking for a divorce attorney after another had me wait for five weeks and emailed they wouldn’t take my case. I had lost valuable time. Patrick said he would be my attorney. He saved my house from being sold without my knowledge. He refused to compromise concerning a future asset. Patrick is empathetic, ethical and knowledgeable. I recommend him with confidence.

Shane and his paralegals are amazing. I was living out of state when my money hungry ex decided to start a case against me. I wasn't able to appear in court, but shane and his crew, special shout out to Blake Vrieze...whom represented me in court that day, managed to save me 25 thousand dollars and get the case against me dismissed. You read that correctly. Case dismissed and I wasn't even there. Blake is a God among men and he represents the Shane A. Taylor law firm. Need I say anymore. Will shout their names from rooftops until I lose my voice. Amazing job!

Absolutely great team of lawyers and paralegals. Helped me get my DUI dismissed because of their due diligence from day one. Absolutely would recommend this firm to anyone going through a similar situation but they also specialize in other areas. Never even had my license suspended and the courts dragged the case on for nearly a year. 10/10 would use this firm again in a heartbeat if I needed to.

For almost three years Lorena represented me in a custody battle that included a FAPA order. There is a lot of back and forth that happens throughout the years, and Lorena kept matters lawful and to the point. Her knowledge around domestic abuse, the law and keeping children first always kept me at ease. She is kind and well spoken. There is no doubt Lorena knows her stuff!! When it finally came down to going in front of the court, Lorena did not disappoint. Everything she had said throughout the years. What we worked towards. Came together masterfully when she spoke.
Also, her legal assistant, Bre is lovely to work with. She is also helpful, knowledgeable and to the point. No one is wasting time or money at Reynolds Law Firm. It was an honor to have them on my side through an emotional-stressful time. I’ll forever be grateful.

My Family Law case was more complex than average. I needed to look for new Counsel in the middle of my case. Lorena was a life saver when should took mine. She was compassionate, uber organized, and highly effective in the courtroom. She well outperformed my Ex's confident attorney. The settlement was more than I could have hoped; allowing me to move to a more secure place to raise my kiddos. We have a wonderful life to look forward to. Reynold Law saved my soul.

Lorena has helped me during two court appearances which were high conflict custody cases. She is an absolute bulldog of a lawyer who is going to direct you in order to build a solid case. She is very knowledgeable, and has her team bring up relevant evidence in order to support you. I have been very happy to have her represent me and will continue to seek her for legal advice, and representation.

Mollie was very proficient in all parts of our case. She was very responsive in answering all my questions and explaining the process/steps throughout the case. My family finally was able to receive the peace of mind we have been fighting for. I couldn’t have asked for a better lawyer and legal support. I admire her work ethic and ability to represent a difficult case like ours. If I ever require legal support in the future I will without a doubt hire Mollie again.

Jonathan helped me and my husband during the naturalization process. He walked us through each step and answered every question and concerns we had. Everything was easy and quick, we got our citizenship as short as 4 months. Even though I was nervous about the interview he put me at ease. If you have a immigration process l definitely recommend him.

When we began the immigration process we were a bit overwhelmed by the many steps and procedures involved. As a result we sought legal advice and began a lawyer search that led us to Jon. We needed someone with a thorough understanding of immigration law, and we hoped for someone passionate about helping people. We found both in Jon and his law firm. He walked us through each step of the process and touched base with us periodically to answer any questions or concerns we had. He was was also always available to offer reassurance when we wondered what might be happening. In the end, everything happened just a Jon assured us it would. Today we received the green card and we’re on our way to citizenship in three years. Jon is a unique blend of honesty, character and a top notch legal skill who genuinely cares for clients. FIVE STAR GUY!

I have worked with many attorneys over the years, but Anna is one of the best at representing her clients. She understands the emotional side and the practical approach to bringing matters to a close quickly and efficiently.

There was no part of me that ever wanted to meet Jody or Anna. None! As a 20 year marriage was ending I started asking around for names of attorneys. I didn't have a clue where to start. But, there was one firm that came up several times from people I trusted - Stahancyk, Kent and Hook. I consulted with several firms before SKH and saved them for last. The old adage, save the best for last? Ask Jody or Anna their theory on how you capture a monkey. Hilarious and and so wise. It was at that story, I said... Yes, they are the total for me. They KNOW the law. But, more important that that - THEY UNDERSTAND PEOPLE!
By the grace of God I didn't need near as much representation as I thought I would. It was peaceful. From the very beginning Anna Friedhoff spoke candidly and truthfully with me. There were several times she needed to remind that I hired her because she is the professional. I am a strong woman and wanted to run the show. Oopsy! She gently but firmly guided me through it. When it became apparent the divorce was going to be amicable she saved me tens of thousand of dollars in fees. I bullet pointed out what I need/wanted. She drafted, we went back and forth with a few revisions. I even received a refund on my retainer fee!!!
I hesitate to mention the swiftness of my divorce as I am fully aware it is not a normal pace. I met Anna Friedhoff on a Wednesday, she had the petition filed by that Friday, September 10th and Clackamas county judge signed our divorce decree October 19th. Yes, I was divorced in 6 weeks. You are in good and caring hands with this firm.

I’m giving Anna Friedhoff 5 stars as a divorce attorney, only because I can’t give 6 stars. Anna is the best attorney in Oregon, and if you’re in the unfortunate position of divorce, she needs to be your first and only call.
Anna is an absolute MONSTER of an attorney. She is brilliant, passionate, aggressive, and an all around badass. If anything else, simply hire her to ensure she’s never looking at you from the other side of the courtroom. I promise you, the last name you want to see on the opposing counsel team is Anna Friedhoff.
While we dealt with Covid, and unexpected delays, Anna never took her eyes off the prize. She fought for me and she won every single motion we entered into. Hiring Anna Friedhoff as my divorce attorney was the best decision I’ve ever made in my life.
If you are reading this review PLEASE do yourself a favor, stop immediately, pick up the phone and call her.
Anna Friedhoff = WIN

Jenny was highly recommended to me by another attorney friend in Greenville and I was lucky enough to see her the day after I called to help my grand daughter, who is a student at Clemson.

I called the number expecting to speak to a paralegal or a Receptionist to set up a consult. Instead I spoke directly to Matt. We went pretty much right into a consult. He listened to me, reviewed what I told him and offered extremely helpful advice. Unfortunately, Matt can not handle the complexities of my case(mostly family law), but he did suggest some other attorneys and gave me some great advice.
I reached out to Matt a few days later to ask if he could send me some documents I had a hard time finding online. Matt promptly responded back and emailed the documents over to me.
I really appreciated how personal he was. He seemed very straightforward and honest. I would have loved to have him handle my case, but I understand the reasons he couldn't.
I will definitely use Matt in the future(God forbid I need him)

I just briefly spoke to Matt over the phone about my concern with a possible case. And his response time was amazingly quick. He spoke to me very nice and professional and offered me in depth advice without even being compensated. If I ever have a legal issue about anything his number is the 1 I wil dial.

Matt represented me in a case that (like most) was a combination of the legal situation and the emotions connected to it. From the first time we spoke, Matt immediately understood my needs and my approach to the situation, and respected me from the start. He listened to my thoughts, answered (and at times, anticipated!) my many, many questions, and honestly made me feel as if I was his most important case and client.
Scheduling time to meet was never an issue, and he met with me a couple of times prior to the actual court date. In addition, Matt was always available by text, and understood my need to reach out whenever a thought, concern, or question popped into my head. And he always addressed any and all thoughts, concerns, and questions.
Matt provides a perspective that incorporates not only the defense side of the matter, but is also able to anticipate how the opposing side will approach the matter. Due to his expertise, experience, and excellent communication skills with the various parties involved, we were able to get a resolution to the case that was as positive as it could have been.
