Mr. Patton has represented me for the past four years, and his services have been nothing short of excellent. I’ve witnessed him walking down the halls of the Douglas County court house. He greets everyone with a smile, and it’s evident how well respected he is among the judges, numerous attorneys and even the staff members behind the windows. He is highly knowledgeable, honest and always available, because he genuinely cares about his clients. He has a calm demeanor, which is comforting to his clients in the midst of stressful situations, yet is a bulldog in the courtroom. He is attentive to detail, listens to his clients, and provides advice to protect and ensure you have the best outcome. If you’re looking for an attorney to help you on your journey to a successful outcome, then Matt Patton is your guy!

Matt Patton and team are great! Persistent and knowledgeable about the process, hi-lighting inconsist practice, understanding, and communication among Douglas County law enforcement agencies. Despite preventative delays from the District Attorney’s Office over the span of 9 months, Matt was able to navigate a unanimous NOT GUILTY verdict never straying from our original intent. Thanks again for all your hard work!

Matt is the most determined and knowledgeable attorney. He is a master communicator and his skills are showcased when he presents to the judge. Matt is prepared to win and deliver. If you want an attorney who knows how to win and is professional, look no further. He knows the law and knows how to get the best outcome. I’m confident that Matt can handle any case you have. You don’t want to go to court without an attorney such as Matt fighting on your behalf.

Matt was great to have on the case. He explained everything that was going on and came up with a plan of action allowing the case to be won. Very good at arguing the case and reacting to developments occurring during the trial. I would highly recommend Matt.

I engaged Matt to handle a legal matter for me in Douglas County Court and am glad that I did. Throughout the matter, Matt and his team were straightforward, prompt to respond (especially via email) in an uncomplicated manner, and sensitive to the legal fees I was incurring. You can’t ask for much more in an attorney.

Obviously everyone is always nervous and full of anxiety over a divorce, Matt understands that and does everything to settle the situation down. He worked hard and fast for me. I couldn’t be happier with his service, communication and professionalism. This guy is the King Kong of divorce attorneys. I can’t thank you enough, also I found out that I spent a third of what my ex did. Erica his paralegal is fantastic and they made everything smooth as could be. Thank you guys.
