I had never been in a position where I needed to inquire legal help. Matthew put my mind at ease and was able to plead my case down. I appreciate his expertise. ~
I was slapped with a rather serious careless driving charge that would have affected my commercial driving career and insurance in a rather devastating manner. Fortunately, I wasted no time in contacting Mr. Haltzmann. His calm, collected manner is enough to put anyone at ease, and I felt even better when I saw how he interacted at the courtroom. Mr. Haltzmann seems to have a productive working relationship with the prosecutors and other personnel at the Fort Collins Municipal Court that allows him to secure excellent deals for his clients. Thanks to his efforts my careless driving charge was reduced to a defective brakes citation, which has no effect on either my insurance or career. Mr. Haltzmann is very knowledgeable about commercial driving and CDL cases, and I would advise anyone who drives for a living to hire this firm should your career be threatened by a traffic charge. Even if you don't drive commercially, this guy is your best choice for any traffic related offenses in the NoCo area.

If u want to get no conviction call Matthew Haltzman. By the way, he personally answer the phone on Sunday, and response to your emails... he Is good one, I know by Self experience.
Matthew Haltzman was an absolute pleasure to work, with from the moment I called to inquire about his services until verdict was rendered. Despite all logic and reason to the contrary, Mr. Haltzman was able to save my license from being suspended at the DMV hearing and, without a doubt, got me the best possible outcome in my court case, one that would have had no chance at all had I tried going it alone (deferred sentence, to be dismissed after 1 year of probation with community service and classes). For me, one of the most important things Mr. Haltzman did was very honestly explain everything to me while he patiently and calmly guided me through the process and all the paperwork. As someone who has never been in trouble with the law before, this was all quite terrifying, but having a knowledgeable and kind professional who would respond to my emails or phone calls in no time was great for my mental health. Thanks to Matthew my future is not in jeopardy because of one mistake and, for me, that is priceless. I could not more highly recommend Mr. Haltzman to anyone seeking legal assistance; he is top-notch, as a lawyer and as a person.
Matthew Haltzman was everything we hoped for. He summarized the facts and the process to be understood, not to confuse. He was personable and professional, patient without condescension, and responsive to all queries. We attribute a best case scenario outcome to Matthew’s skill and expertise with the law, specifically for us, in Larimer County.
I had a pretty serious and complicated criminal legal issue being prosecuted by the Fort Collins District Attorney in Larimer County. My longstanding business and estate planning attorney highly recommended Matthew at Haltzman Law Firm. Mr. Haltzman started working on the case right away. He did an exceptional job and took care of everything. I am so glad I got the referral to call his office. Highly recommend this law firm.
Matt was amazing. He was very knowledgeable about my situation and empathetic. He was straight forward and honest and was always prompt. Fought for me and my issue and was always very positive.
Matthew helped our family in an elder financial exploitation case. He very quickly was able to ascertain how best to proceed. Having less than a week to prepare for the court proceeding, Matthew was not deterred. His mastery of law is apparent. We found Matthew to be a very approachable, down to earth individual. We would highly recommend him!!
Matthew gave me an honest review of what he would attempt to do, what the parameters were, possible outcomes, and his promise to work hard for my case. He delivered in every aspect. Matthew is a trustworthy attorney and honest person.
Haltzman was great! Patient and thorough in his approach. He was a pro in the process of defending my case, one where I was facing very serious false accusations. At the end... FULLY DISMISSED! Justice was served in some very tough inner-works of the complicated case where initially it looked as there was no hope for it. I would recommend to first try avoiding the court system, but if it's too late for that and you are here reading this, there's no better than Haltzman.
