Reviews for Matthew
Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Litigation is stressful no matter how your slice it. Having an attorney who knows the law and how to navigate through choppy waters in invaluable. We may be in this for the long haul, so I see the expense as an investment in truth.
This legal practice is extremely organized, beyond competent, and very easy to communicate and work with on all details. I personally worked with them on real estate and am extremely grateful for them, as well, looking forward to working with them again in the future for all of our legal real estate needs. -J

Matthew D. Norfolk - thank you
Matt displays a willingness and ability to listen to the client. His understanding of the situation and realization of the best approach in
finding a fair and equitable solution is unmatched.
Matthew Norfolk applied more than his intelligence, knowledge, and experience to my case: he also demonstrated imagination and creativity in analyzing the circumstances and actions of the defendants to arrive at a very smart plan of action. His timing was always very good, he explained things well and kept me informed. But more than anything, he impressed me by really using his head! His assistant Mary McAllister was also excellent, by the way.
Matthew is attentive to detail with strong communication skills. He pays attention to the rights of his clients no matter how big or small a case it is.
My company has worked with Matt on several occasions with great satisfaction. We are in a small market and reputations are easily known. Matt is well respected in our marketplace and he was an easy choice for us. Matt was time sensitive to our needs and a great communicator on every level.
Matt provided thoughtful and well-targeted legal advice. He zealously advocated for my case and was always well prepared and available to me. He is a consummate professional and his fees are honest and reasonable. I have complete confidence in his abilities and will continue to use his services in the future.
Matt has been outstanding in serving my best interests when dealing with professional lacrosse teams. He has always gone the extra mile to help me further my career.
Matt, was in my corner from the start & went above and beyond to win my case.
