Had a very professional conversation about my case and Mr Matney spent time to help me feel very comfortable about what I’m going through. My case has been very stressful and have had a lot of unanswered concerns prior to speaking with Mr Matney and I definitely feel a lot more relaxed and comfortable about my possible outcome. Very professional and kind individual. God willing I don’t need further counsel for legal issues in the future, but if I do I will definitely be seeking Mr Matney. And would recommend him to anybody going through any tough legal situations!

I retained Mr. Matney to represent me on a fairly simple traffic case. Communication was clear, the fee was fair and the case had a favorable outcome. From the initial consultation to the court date communication was clear, valid, and informative.

Mr.Matney was a pleasure to work with! Him and his team were very prompt in letting me know what I should do before court to ensure the best outcome. I did as they said and when court came, my speeding in a residential zone was brought down to a defective speedometer. I can’t thank Mr. Matney enough for helping me to drop my speeding ticket to something that won’t affect my insurance or show up on my record. He was professional, kind, and informative, and I will definitely use him in the future if needed..hopefully he won’t be.
