I cannot thank Matt enough for the time and dedication he gave to my case. He was professional and constantly me updated on the status of the case and always had our next best plan of action ready to go. He got the severity of my charges dropped considerably, and I am still able to drive with my license. Thanks again Matt, you're amazing at what you do!!

He was efficient and thorough. He went above and beyond to ensure I was represented properly. He did his due diligence and always was straight forward. I appreciated him and his hard work. He has a tremendous work ethic and is extremely fair.

I found Matt to be quite personable, as well as efficient and knowledgable. My case, which was concerning cannabis and cannabis extracts (which is a sched 1) of no small quantity, felt like it was on autopilot for the most part, having only to show up to court briefly on a few occasions. He was prompt to respond with both email and text/calling to both keep you abreast of new information and in answering questions I had, which were numerous. Matt, like most good lawyers, is understandably busy on any given day, and anyone that's been through the court system knows that a case can drag out over a lengthy amount of time, but even given that, I never had to wait very long for a response through the entire ordeal (which was the better part of a year). Even after my case was resolved, he was instrumental in getting my siezed vehicle back from the state police, which technically he didn't really have to do. Plus, and this certainly doesn't hurt, he was obviously quite well recieved in court, owning I'm sure to his amicable mannerisms, reputation, and charisma. Add to all of this the fact that, amongst all the lawyers I contacted, he was by a clear mile the most cost effective option, it would make little sense for me to recommend anyone else, at least based upon my experience. From this guy's perspective, you're doing yourself a favor becoming his client.

Matt went above the call of duty. I find many people these days are lazy and take the easy, quick way out but not Matt. He worked very diligently to gather every fact, the obvious and not so obvious. His investigating, familiarity with the members of the court and confidence led to an outstanding result. Thank you Matt.

I came across Matt on Google by searching for DUI lawyers and I could not have been more satisfied with his help in my case. He was extremely professional and presented me with the best case scenario for my situation and then executed the plan just as he said he would (including expunging my criminal charge). In court I could tell he was very well respected among all of the judges and prosecutors. I highly recommend Matt to anyone charged with a criminal case (or any other cases he deals with!)

This was the first time I had ever needed a lawyer for any reason and Matthew made the entire process much less stressful. Every step of the way he kept the lines of communication open and fought for an outcome better than I could have imagined. I would recommend Matthew to anyone in need of a defense attorney in RI.
