I had been working with Mr.Coffman for over a year and half on this case. When I contacted him, he didn't hesitate to help me. He always gave great advise, always took the time to talk to me if it was 5 mins or 2 hours on the phone. He never made me feel rushed. He is so personable, honest, and professional. I couldn't have been happier with anybody else. I am over joyed with his commitment and hard work. I am also very pleased with the outcome. I would recommend him to anyone.

Mr. Coffman was hired by me to represent me on a FLSA Violation of Labor Laws case where my former employer refused to pay me for Overtime hours I worked while classified as a non-exempt employee. Mr. Coffman demonstrates considerable passion for the law & shows overwhelming desire to gain the clients trust & confidence in his abilities. I was pleased with the easy access I had to my attorney throughout my case and pleased to report my case was settled at the mediation stage leaving me with a settlement award that I felt I could live with. If you are looking for an attorney who is serious about providing topnotch service then Mr. Coffman is a great choice for you. He will fight for what is best for his client.

After calling several attorneys regarding my situation with my employer, I received a call back from Matthew Coffman advising that I had a case of discrimination and unlawful termination. Matthew's representation was outstanding. He took his time to answer all of my questions and answered my e-mails in a timely manner. I would recommend him due to his willingness to to help and make sure that his client comes first.

I worked with Mathew on a severance pay negotiation case with a former employer. Mathew was professional and easy to work with. He answered my questions and offered solutions. He made sure that I understood what was happening with my case every step of the way. He responded to my telephone calls and e-mails quickly. He has an extensive knowledge of the law and gave me good sound advise. He negotiated with my former employer to obtain a fair and reasonable settlement. He pointed out to my former employer that I was paid considerably less than my male counterparts as well as being laid off with a group of people over the age of 40. I was please with the results. If the need ever arises that I need an employment lawyer I would contact Mathew.

Mr. Coffman Recently represent me in a case. He did an excellent job. We were able to settle out of court in a very speedy manner. A case that could have been drawn out over a year or two was settled in a matter of months. In that time frame he got me the result I wanted. His dedication to my case was great. I would recommend him to friends or family any day and would hire him again in the future if needed.
