Matt is great at what he does. I have used him a few times and he has done me wonders. He is hands down the best attorney out there. He tells you straight out and will not beat around the bush. He is worth every penny. I recommend him to everyone. They say you get what you pay for and that’s so true with him. He will not disappoint you for sure.

I have used Matt and his firm for several years. Recommend him to many family and friends, and will always be my first call if needed. As a person Matt is professional but also makes you feel at ease laying it out straight for you..... he speaks the truth, explains the plan and moves forward. ✌🏻Have never used him for DUI counsel thankfully, but have heard he is a beast!

I cannot say enough good things about attorney, Matt Guilfoil. I referred a client from GA who ran into some trouble while in the area. Matt was kind, professional, and always available. He saved my client’s license and protected him from losing his job and teaching certificate. Seriously, this man is an amazing lawyer and a real lifesaver. He is the best choice you can make when in need!
