From start to finish, Deborah Matthews provided us with expert advice and service. Every time we had a question, she was prompt to respond and explained matters in such a way that we immediately could understand the legality and ramifications of our inquiries. Her office conduct is also superb. We always felt welcome. She and her staff are friendly, personable, and knowledgable. We always felt we were in expert hands, comfortable, and satisfied with all of the legal matters she handled for us. Our entire experience with her and her office was pleasant, and we also feel that her fees were reasonable and acceptable. We would certainly want to use her legal services again in the future, should the occasion arise.

The Clerk of Courts commented I was very smart to hire a lawyer and that I had made a wise decision in selecting Ms. Matthews as she was one of the best. I liked her, because of her competence, and that she had a heart. She sent me birthday and Christmas cards, thanking me for my business. She acknowledged, with sensitivity the difficulty in going through the holidays after the loss of a beloved mother. It felt comfortable dealing with her and she got the job done. She was my favorite of 3 attor

Ms. Matthews was very thorough and thoughtful in helping us revise our wills . She made changes and then more changes as we thought about how we wanted our estate to be settled. Her staff is very reponsive and kind.
