Matt did an incredible job for me, and ultimately got my DWI case dismissed. I'm obviously writing this after a great resolution, but I'd write the same review regardless of the outcome. I spoke with several lawyers before Matt, and none of them made me feel great about hiring them. Matt was reasonable and professional when I initially spoke with him and laid out realistic expectations. He was responsive when I had questions, getting back with me via email within a reasonable amount of time and setting up meetings with me when things needed to be discussed. I never felt like I was on his back burner or being pushed aside, and I never felt like he was doing anything but fighting for the best possible outcome for my case. He knows what he's talking about, he knows what he's doing, and you're not just another case and a quick buck for him. Your case is just as important to him as it is to you.
I called Matt Horak, and from the moment I spoke with him he did everything to reassure me that my felony case would be OK his office and staff did everything they could to keep me up-to-date on where we stood and even during all this COVID-19 mess, Matt was able to get my case totally dismissed. Again through the whole process he always reassured me that everything was gonna be OK and in the end he was correct thank you Matt
Matt Horak is a very knowledgeable criminal attorney! Matt provided professional and attentive legal assistance during my husband’s sex offense case. He is very knowledgeable in this field of work. We always had direct communication with him, and he kept us well informed about the case and actions to take that was in our best interest. My husband’s case was complex due to his pending immigration status, but Matt did a great job and got the case DISMISSED! Even though Immigration law is not in his scope of work he quickly connected us with the right individuals to assist us. Getting this case dismissed was the only option to continue his path to citizenship. This was the toughest time for my family, and I can honestly say that Matt was understanding and compassionate. I highly recommend him to handle your case especially if you are facing a sex offense case.
I recently hired Matt Horak to represent me reference an improper criminal arrest. Mr. Horak was professional and confident from the initial consultation through the entire process. He never questioned my claim of innocence and was prepared to go to trial. Mr. Horak was able to have my case dismissed without going to trial. When he notified me, that feeling was "spectacular!" I would hire Mr. Horak for any future needs and in fact have already requested his assistance on a future matter. Knowledge, experience and a friendly staff are priceless. If you need an attorney, call Matt Horak. I'm sure glad I did.
Being from New Braunfels with no attorney connection in Houston, I searched and talked to at least 6 attorneys in the Houston Market before selecting Matt Horak to help my 17-year-old son. Matt was the only one who made me feel comfortable. He was not pushy, more he does not have an Aura of arrogancy the other attorneys had. Watching Matts video on his website was also key in making our decision. Matt was able to get my son on a Pretrial Diversion Program and ultimately have my son’s charge expunged. Hight recommend Matt and hope I never need his services in Houston again. I mean that in the most respectful way!
This man will not be cheap this man will not lie to you . This man saved my buddy and I from a bullshit charge . Thanks Matt your Client forever J Morse
Matt was very straight forward from the very start. He explained the entire process and managed my expectations on how the case would go. His team communicated and kept me up to date every step of the way. He is the most strategic, intelligent lawyer I have ever worked with. Everything went exactly as outlined, there is not another counselor I would rather trust my fate with. He superseded all expectations and I would immediately hire him again. I am supremely confident in my highest recommendation for Horak Law services.
I hired Matt after I was arrested and charged for Aggravated Sexual Assault of a child. The problem was that I was being falsely accused of the crime. He explained to me early on about what to expect and the steps we would take to get through such a serious charge. Considering that the charge was not light, there was a high chance that we would have to go all the way to Trial. Before a trial date was set he was already extremely confident and ready to fight by my side. A trial date was set and as I was patiently waiting for the date to come I was informed that my case got dismissed. I will not be able to thank Matt enough for getting me through this. He was clear, confident, and most importantly professional.
I was falsely accused of a crime. My case kept getting reset after reset in the court. After over ten months of that agony, I fired my first criminal attorney and hired Matt. My case was dismissed a little over a month later. I cannot recommend him enough.
Matt Horak is an excellent criminal defense attorney, I would highly recommend him!
