Reviews
Matt Esworthy, and his firm, retained our services as local counsel in the Southern District of New York. I was impressed by their preparedness and attention to detail in a very difficult financial case. Smart, nuanced litigators. Matt obtained an impossible result for the client; a result I frankly thought was way out of reach. When dealing with the federal prosecutors, you come to expect to take your lumps, minimize the damage and move on, but Matt and his expert team persevered and obtained a beyond fantastic settlement in a very difficult case where the client was behind the 8-ball from the get-go. I am very impressed with Matt's diligence, intellect and firmness. A top attorney whom I unreservedly recommend.
