Mr. Matt is a wonderful attorney. I was arrested on 8 burglary charges and some other minor charges. He worked super hard on my case while keeping me updated on everything as well as continued to fight hard on my behalf. He listened to me and we had good discussions about my future which means he cares. I ended up getting 3 years probation on a ton of charges and he fought non-stop to get me the best deal possible. Thank you for your help Mr .Matt. I would only recommend him for your case because he is the best!

Matt is an AWESOME attorney! He is very diligent and creative! Our son was facing up to 63 years for numerous burglaries and other charges; Matt was able to work a miracle first to get our son the opportunity to be released on bond to the SC Youth ChalleNGe Academy and even after he was dismissed from that program, Matt was able to work another miracle in a plea deal with solicitors in two counties and ultimately achieved precisely the sentence we were hoping for... essentially probation! Matt was willing to listen to our ideas and was always very generous with his time, explaining the processes
