I called about Expungements and WORST experience ever!! She the office assistant had no idea what she was talking about and kept telling me if you were found guilty that you cannot expunge the case and as for a felony, she said no felony conviction was expungeable Than she hung up!

Matthew Bennett was my lawyer for a criminal case in 2010 and I must saw he was a great choice. He was professional and treated my case with such personal care and devotion. I would definitely recommend him. He also helped me out afterwards in getting my record expunged! If you are looking for a lawyer, I'd say to go with him!

I had an excellent experience hiring Matt as my lawyer. Highly recommended and well respected in this area. I was facing 7 driving charges along with losing my driving license. I was expecting to get maybe a few of these charges dropped. Matt went above and beyond for me and answered every question I had along the way. In the end all charges were dropped and I had my license back in my possession.

You can't do better than Matt. Thank you again.

Mr. Bennett is professional, personable, and honest. He was extremely helpful and straightforward about the process and what I could expect from his services and my traffic case. He is professional and direct in the courtroom while making sure you feel at peace and prepared.

I would highly recommend Mr. Bennett for anyone seeking legal assistance for minor and major cases as he is very knowledgeable in his field and is committed to offering the best professional services and advice!

I recommend Matthew's services without any hesitation; he is professional, personable, and affordable. During my consultation he explained the law and how it pertained to my case, and put me immediately at ease. In the weeks following the consultation and leading up to my case, Matthew kept in correspondence and kept me completely informed. Matthew's expertise, knowledge, and quick thinking during the hearing afforded me a more than favorable outcome, and he has been immediately available in the time since to answer any questions I have had.

Absolutely Brillant! Matthew did an exellent job on my husband case. My husband is not in the country and he was not able to get his visa because of a pending court he had. I am so glad I seek for his help. He was confident and wanted my husband to be reunited with his family. Thanks to him my husband will not have a criminal record. If you need help he is great and affordable.

If you are looking for a top notch criminal defense, dui/dwi or personal injury attorney then Matthew Bennett is the attorney for you! Mr. Bennett was extremely helpful and transparent throughout my DUI/DWI case.

Let me tell you a little about my case. I am 2nd time DUI/DWI offender who was pulled over in Moco. I took the field test but refused the breathalyzer and was immediately locked up. The officers did a search of my vehicle and found several empty beer bottles/cans in the vehicle in which they intended to use as evidence. I had been drinking that evening, but I had only had 2 beers at a local pub and did not understand why the officer had pulled me over in the first place.

First and foremost, I did my research and met and spoke with several local attorneys in the Moco area. I found Mr. Bennett through Avvo and visited his site and submitted an inquiry. He promptly got back to me within the hour and requested that I come into his office for a consultation. At first I was skeptical because all I really wanted to know was how much this was going to cost me and most attorneys I spoke with were okay with giving that information over the phone. I will now be the 1st person to tell you, do not pick your attorney just based off of their price! Anyways, I walked into Matt's office and immediately got that "Breaking Bad," Saul Goodman vibe. I let Matt review the documents I had received from the officer and the charges that I had pending. Matt dissected them in under 30 minutes and told me that he would recommend that I plead "not guilty" and attempt to fight my case. He was not pushy at all and very professional, but he did urge me to get an attorney. Matt’s fees were very reasonable for the amount of effort, research and work he would need to do in order to best represent me and he allowed me to make payments. Matt is not the cheapest attorney in the area, but he is also not the most expensive. With 19+ years of experience and a great network he is well worth the price.

Next, Matt and I began to prepare for my trials (Court and MVA). He was able to obtain copies of the police report, videos of the stop and everything else that was needed. Naturally, I was nervous at first and would always follow up with Matt but he and his secretary were always on top of things. They would send me notices in the mail of when my different hearings were and I honestly did not have to do much of anything at all. Matt and I met a few days before my trial and spoke on things and reviewed my case one more time. Matt was happy and eager to answer any questions I had via phone or email at ANY time. You MUST know when hiring an attorney that there is no guarantee that you are going to win your case; however, you can be confident that you will receive your money’s worth and that Matt will do his damn best to represent you.

Matt’s true skill set did not begin to truly shine until I got to see him in action within the court room. Matt’s ability to paint a picture with words and dissect my case and traffic stop to the judge literally left me speechless. While questioning the arresting officer, Matt was able to use the officers own statements and police report in our favor. He literally had the officer on the stand stuttering over his words and looking like a deer in headlights! What was the outcome you ask? I had 4 pending charges and possible jail time, all of which Mr. Bennett was able to get dismissed. He was able to use his skill set to convince the judge that the officer had no reason to pull me over in the first place (illegal traffic stop).

Matt is a very likable and funny guy who has established a rapport with many of the areas attorneys and judges. His ability to build relationships, listen, conduct research, think proactively, communicate effectively and be knowledgeable in his areas of practice make him a TOP NOTCH attorney.

DO NOT HESITATE TO HIRE MATTHEW BENNETT AT ANY COST! HE IS WORTH IT!

If you want the best attorney, then Matthew Bennett is your guy. He practices law with the highest degree of integrity. Because he took care of the business aspect of the case, I could concentrate on the recovery process without worrying about the settlement. He always kept me up to speed, he replied to my emails within minutes and every single person in his office made me feel welcomed and understood. The settlement turned out so well that I was pleasantly surprised if not shocked with the result. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is searching for a terrific attorney that they can trust.

The first time I meet and talk to Mr Bennet I knew I was in good hands. He told me what most attorney I meet before him was afraid to tell me the worst and best outcome of my case. Making a young and dumb decision which put my military career on ice I was scared of the outcome. What Mr Bennett told me he would do he executed 200%. He saved my career. I have so many thank you for Mr Bennett.

Mr. Bennett was extremely thorough and helpful. He alleviated all of our fears and helped us to win our case. He knew what information we needed as well as how the court proceedings would go. He was great.

My experience with Matthew was excellent. He got a very good outcome for my case. But what I appreciated as much was the care he took to communicate clearly, thoroughly, and frequently with me about the case. I switched my case from another lawyer who could not have cared less if I ever heard or understood anything about the case. What a difference! Matthew is the best.

Mr. Bennett came highly recommended by a friend and did nothing but exceed my expectations. He is professional, timely and highly knowledgable. I found him to be highly realistic yet understanding and would definitely recommend him, in the future. The decision to seek legal counsel with Matthew is one of the best you can make. Period.

Matthew is a pleasure to work with. He really has helped me over the past 3 years and would definitely recommend him to anyone of my closest friends and relatives. He is very understanding and empathetic to your situation, but always completely upfront concerning possible outcomes, so that you never have to assume anything.

Matthew Bennett is an excellent attorney. I originally met him when he was the opposing counsel in a matter in which I was involved and I was very impressed and told him if I ever was in need of an attorney I would contact him for his services, because he obtained a very good outcome for someone by catching a minor technicality that could have easily been overlooked.

Just recently, my son was involved in an accident that required legal counsel for navigating through some issues that could have seriously impacted his driving record.

I immediately contacted Mr. Bennett and I was not disappointed. He was thorough and provided wonderful service and counsel. He made things very easy, communicating with me and my son via phone and email, alleviating the need to take time off from work to consult with him.

The day of trial, Mr. Bennett was quickly gathering facts and communicating with other parties in the court room that appeared for trial, and he was very effective in dealing with the judge.

My son had a very positive outcome at trial as a result of Mr. Bennett's services and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of legal consultation.

I am so glad to have met Mr. Bennett and he will be my attorney for any future needs.

I had an assault charge and i feared for my future tremendously. I initially went to Jezic, Krum, Moyse which is a pretty well recognized firm that handles criminal cases but they were just too much and i couldnt afford their rates. They recommended Matthew Bennett to me as they said he was extremely capable and professional and he would be at a lower rate. Well it turned out i saved a couple hundred bucks and he was WAY more competent than i had expected cause i usually go about thinking in life "you get what you pay for" but in this case Mr Bennett was amazing. He saved me from possible incarceration and i was just appalled during the trial, he had complete control of the court room and was directing the flow of everything in his own way. Most people imagine and think about what they're going to do in a situation like this and it doesnt always turn out the exact way you plan but it did for Mr Bennett. As soon as i saw the notes he was taking during the trial i already knew i was safe because he was catching information from the Victim's testimonies and using them to cross examine. This man saved my future and he is extremely good at what he does. Hopefully i will never need to hire him again but if so i am definitely going with Matthew Bennett and he will be getting many recommendations from me.

My experience with Attorney Matthew Bennett was great. I was in a bad spot, facing a tough and complicated situation. Mr. Bennett handled my case with great care and professionalism. He's sharp...articulate...direct...and wants what's best for his clients. My situation was tough, and I'll always appreciate the time and genuine care Mr. Bennett took to help me get through that tough time. But best of all...we won.

I absolutely recommend Matthew Bennett. Anytime I have a potential legal issue, he's THE guy I call.

I was referred to Matthew Bennett by a friend of mine, who is also an attorney. I met with him, explained my situation, and based on the questions he asked, I knew he had common sense and the intelligence to work on my case. We communicated through email, fax and phone so I didn't have to take off work and go to his office all the time. He was accessible, everytime I needed him, he responded. He won my case, had my record expunged and called to follow-up and make sure I received any necessary documentation.

If you need an attorney, I recommend Matthew Bennett without reservation.

Matthew Bennett is a bright and thorough attorney and I am happy to have had in at my side during a complicated, difficult matter. He was always thoroughly prepared, had a terrific grasp of the law, and presented our matter confidently (and like someone who has done it countless times). He took time to get to know me well and to understand all the subtleties and nuances that are important in matters such as ours. He became an advisor in addition to being my lawyer.

I strongly recommend Matthew to any would-be clients that find themselves in difficult situations. He knows Montgomery and Prince George's Counties well. He's also expanded his practice into the Baltimore area and has great relationships in the profession there as well.

I went to two lawyers in the same building. The first was alful. The second was Mr. Bennett. He is amazing. First of all he listened to what I had to say. He took notes but mostly listened. He asked really good questions and then he told me how the case looked from his perspective. The Internet is a funny thing; you have to look at a number of sources to determine what is real and what is not. Mr. Bennett has had lots of cases in the newspapers and yet he is very down to earth.

I feel very good about choosing Mr. Bennett. I went to other lawyers and made my own deciison. I choose Mr. Bennett!
