My family hired Matt to represent us in an Injunction Against Harassment hearing. My daughter was threatened & Matt was sure to do everything in his power in order to keep the order upheld. He was invested & dedicated to our case. He was very personable & nice, & worked so well with our daughter. He also was very easy to reach. Any time I had a question or concern, he was there with a prompt answer. Overall, we were extremely pleased with Matt & highly recommend him!

I recently was involved in a court case where I was the plaintiff. I retained Matthew just a week before my court date. He spent time with me by phone telling me how to get my notes and timeline together so he could review. He took time and prepared me for an hour before I was to be in front of the judge. Everything went as he planned, I won my day in court.

I hired Matt to represent me in a civil traffic case regarding my class A CDL license. Matt thoroughly prepared my case and kept me informed thru the whole process. He was able to navigate the court restrictions, due to Covid 19 and get my case heard in person with a judge. I highly recommend Matt to anyone needing legal assistance.

Hell no Matthew took on this case also , no discussion of any extra costs , he amazingly got 2 DV charges dropped

Matthew represented me in connection with an all edged DUI, notwithstanding that the evidence, including a blood test did not support the charge. Matthew convinced the court of the error of its ways and eliminated the charges. I made a lump sum payment in the beginning. He could have decided to work less hard because he had been paid. He did the opposite and stood by me until he brought the case to a successful conclusion. I am indebted to him. I highly recommend his services. You could find no one better.

Matthew was knowledgeable, professional and made me feel relieved and heard everything pertaining to my case. Not only did he and the Schill law firm work with me financially they resulted in a win scenario for me where without representation I would have been imprisoned. Dont hesitate to hire Mr. Jefferson he will fight for your right to freedom and get it done. Thank you Matt!

I would recommend Matt to anybody and I am lucky that I ended up hiring him! He was very efficient and quick with the whole process and kept in touch with me. He is also someone you can count on and trust, which is the biggest thing! Go w/ Jefferson & Biggs, well worth it!

I was his first client when he started. He helped me with my divorce and custody case. For me being his first client I think he did an exceptional job. He kept in touch with me always. He explained all processes and procedures so I could understand. He was very professional and got me what I wanted in my custody case. He went above and beyond what he was required to do. Seeing him again after the custody case I went to to talk to him about another issue and he has gained so much more experience it seems. He is great at what he does.
