Hired Attorney Deborah Mattison

She is truly the best at what she does! She fought hard for my child! I could never thank her enough! She is extremely knowledgeable about what she is doing and cared and fought for my child. I hope I never need another attorney but if I did she would be who I called! Immediately from the moment I talked to her she started fighting for my child! I would recommend her to anyone! Thank you Deb for being so amazing and caring so much for my child and fighting for him. Prior to speaking to her I didn't know where to turn and felt no hope and now I am excited for my child I have hope again.

Hired Attorney Deborah Mattison

I was referred by a family member to Mrs. Mattison with high regards. Mrs. Mattison was very client oriented in reviewing my daughter's case and was able to represent us in asking the school system for what my daughter needed and was entitled to by law. She is very knowledgeable and to the point. Her knowledge of IEPs and educational law allowed her to get my daughter more than I ever thought was possible.I can't give her enough praise and thanks for what she did for my daughter.

Ms. Mattison has a vast knowledge of special education law and represents her clients with poise, energy and vigor. If anyone needs an advocate for their child, this attorney is the one you need! I recommend her highly.

I would highly recommend Deb to any parent/person needing legal assistance with a special education issue. My husband and I have been completely satisfied with how Deb has handled our case. She is the most caring, polite, professional attorney that we have had the pleasure of working with.

Hired Attorney Henry Blizzard III

This individual is horrible. Don’t waste your time. Like other reviews state, he never even bothered to call. If I could give a BIG ZERO I would. The lack of professionalism is terrible. Again, DONT waste your time or money.

Deb Mattison screwed my case up almost 11 years ago. She quit my case & left me out In the cold. The other side got a lawyer, who had a conflict of interest with her. I lost the case & I am still suffering along with my child who didn't receive services they was entitled to.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
