As an attorney myself, I was completely impressed with the promptness in which Matthew and Shelee consulted with me. They listened attentively and provided top notch and thorough legal advice leaving me with peace of mind.

I cant say enough how much I value their expertise and respect that they showed to me. Five stars isnt high enough!

Angels of the Law is how I would refer to them. Keep up the great work!

The MTM team is exceptional. Patient. Professional. Transparent. Knowledgeable. I came to rely totally on the team's expertise and guidance, with full confidence and trust.
Thank you and please pass on to the MTM team a sincere thanks from a very relieved EX Personal Representative.
I appreciate the team's effort in gently and patiently sheepherding me through some very stressful times and making up for my repeated shortfalls and oft clumsy mistakes along the way. My intention was to always and only be as openly honest and trustworthy as possible throughout all the trials and challenges we faced. I believe the family is also just as appreciative and grateful of ALL of our efforts.

I was referred to Mr Morrison by another lawyer, in regards to an estate matter. He took the time to counsel me, listen and offer a new perspective.
I appreciate the empathy, and the information he provided as a human to human - because in the real world, sometimes things happen.
Its refreshing to have a lawyer who really listens, cares and always has your back.
I wish I would have found MTM sooner. Professional, empathetic, fair minded approach - definitely the group you want on your side.

I called Matt to assist with getting my Dads legal affairs in order. My dad has just been hospitalized in Lakeland but I was in Alabama. Matt was incredibly helpful through the entire process. He explain options and talked through pro and cons of each. Once a process was decided he completed all paperwork quickly and even offered to personally meet with my dad in the hospital to have everything signed while I dialed in from Alabama. Call Matt you will not be disappointed.

An Exceptional Attorney for Estate Issues

We recently had the privilege of working with Attorney Matthew Morrison to resolve the estate issues of a loved one who passed away unexpectedly. We cannot express enough how grateful we were for the exceptional service and support provided by Attorney Morrison during this difficult time.

From the moment we reached out to Attorney Morrisons office, he displayed a high level of professionalism and empathy. He took the time to listen to our concerns and understand the circumstances surrounding the estate. Attorney Morrison demonstrated a deep knowledge of estate law and guided us through the entire process with utmost care and attention to detail.

What sets Attorney Morrison apart is his ability to explain complex legal concepts in a clear and concise manner. He patiently answered all our questions and ensured that we fully understood the implications of each decision. Attorney Morrison provided us with sound advice and helped us make informed choices that were in the best interest of the estate.

Throughout the entire process, Attorney Morrison maintained open and transparent communication. He promptly returned our calls and emails, keeping us updated on the progress of the case. We always felt well-informed and confident that our loved one's estate was in capable hands.

Not only did Attorney Morrison handle the legal aspects of the estate with expertise, but he also showed genuine compassion and understanding. Dealing with the loss of a loved one is never easy, but Attorney Morrison provided a comforting presence and reassurance throughout the entire process.

We highly recommend Attorney Morrison to anyone in need of an attorney for estate issues. His professionalism, knowledge, and compassionate approach make him the ideal choice for navigating the complexities of estate law. We are truly grateful for his assistance and cannot thank them enough for his outstanding service.

Thank you, Attorney Morrison for your exceptional support during this challenging time.

Shelee M. was very helpful with my situation. She was able to look at my property deed on line and took my problem to the attorneys immediately. She was kind and helped resolve my situation and expeditiously. I would highly recommend this firm and will use them again myself.

MTM law firm was engaged to settle my deceased brothers estate. The time to complete the estate settlement took much longer than expected due to the challenges of navigating the FL legal system as well as the frustrating,, slow, bureaucratic processes of the estate department of Wells Fargo bank.
However in spite of the above MTM law firm stayed the course and successfully completed the disposition of the estate assets. MTM law firm also saved me the cost and time of a CA to FL. trip by securing and shipping contents of a safe deposit box at no additional charge. The amount of time and effort put forth by MTM far exceeded their fee for services. Would I use them again? Absolutely!
