On the weekend of Easter 2021, I made some boneheaded mistakes that could have had a negative impact on my future. I was arrested for three charges: a DUI, driving in the marked part of the lane, and driving under suspension. I was stressed, worried, and anxious. Fortunately, Matt was the one attorney who returned my call on Easter, calmed my nerves, and showed up to court the next day. From that point forward, Matt was a legal warrior for my case who gave clear instructions: Produce a copy of my clean driving record. Write a few reflections. And, of course, to simply RELAX. Matt managed to get my DUI and marked lane violations dismissed. My initial license suspension was an error and I quickly resolved the issue. Thanks to Matt, my license is currently valid, not suspended, and there’s no DUI on my record. If I had to experience this all again, I would choose Matt to be my attorney a thousand times over. The team at Matt Chapel Law is professional, supportive, and reliable. Matt’s teammates, Amber and Isabella, were always kind, always willing to listen, and consistently understanding of my situation and needs. If you need legal representation of any kind, Matt is the best bar none. Thank you again, Matt.

Matt Chapel was by far the best lawyer to have. He took his time to understand my situation and because I didn't fully understand what was going on he took the time to explain and break everything down so I wasn't in the dark about anything. If you're looking for a lawyer who is going to devote his time and effort into your case Matt Chapel is that lawyer. He knows what he is doing and he's going to do everything he can to help you.

Matt is an amazing attorney and really cares about his clients. He doesn’t mind to take late night calls and will work on your case even over the weekends. He is very tough in the courtroom and really defends his clients.

Matt Chapel defense lawyer. He certainly is one of a kind. He is very thorough and an honest attorney, who generally cares personally and professionally about his clients and there family. He never stops working for you, even on weekends he was still plugging away. Always going that extra mile. I couldn't have asked for a better attorney.

We have hired Matt on several occasions for very serious issues. Matt was very thorough in his research to find the truth. His diligent work, caring attitude towards us, and knowledge of the law was unsurpassable! He was able to get felony charges dropped through his tireless efforts. We are forever grateful for the countless hours Matt put in to helping clear us of wrong doing. I would hire him in a second if I ever need a lawyer again!!

I have suffered from mental illness for years and because of that, I haven't made the best decisions. Drinking and driving to me in trouble and Matt was able to keep me out of jail by working closly with the prosecutors office. If im ever in trouble agin, I would call Matt.

My son, who is on the autism spectrum, was charged for assault. Everyone involved knew that my son was not culpable or competent to stand trial, but it did not matter. My son was taken away from me and put in an institution. Matt Chapel fought hard for me to get custody of my son back. I know that he put countless hours with advocates and other groups to help fight for my son and myself. With his dedication to the case, his caring character, and his professionalism, I was able to get my son back. I was impressed by the fact that Matt not only prepared himself for me but more importantly, for my son with special needs. I would highly recommend Matt for anyone who is in need of an attorney and anyone who needs an attorney for a loved one with special needs.

I consulted with Mr. Chapel on behalf of my son who made one of the biggest mistakes in his life. He was facing 3 felony counts and a DUI. Through his diligence and knowledge of Indiana law, my son's felony charges were dropped. However, nothing could be done with the DUI charges. My son was very happy with the end result even though he has a DUI on his record. But, he knows that was his fault and will never drink and drive again. Mr. Chapel was kind and understanding throughout this extremely embarrassing time for our family.
