What clients say
I had a great experience with Matthew. Initially, I thought the 5-star ratings seemed exaggerated, but after working with him personally, I completely understand why. Matthew responds quickly, has deep knowledge, and genuinely knows how to help. Highly recommended!

I had gotten a traffic ticket for speeding while driving from Quebec to NYC. It was my first time experiencing this on top of being in the US. I wanted to just pay the ticket and get it over with but I did not want any points on my record as it would be transferred to my QC license. This led to me to consult a lawyer. Matthew is extremely professional with exceptional communication skills. Everything was sorted over email, he was able to keep me up to date throughout the process with rapid email responses to all my questions and concerns. The whole matter was resolved in a matter of two weeks — ticket was reduced to a non moving violation, no points on my record and just a fine to pay online. I recommend Matthew to anyone, I will for sure use his services in the future if needed.
