Mutiple " telephone call to client" even on the same day, were billed for $50-$75. "draft pleadings" are $75. Preparation of CIS & CLIS after a $75 email, was billed for $180 and another $50 to "make additional changes to the certification" but not before another $50 "email to client regarding certification" ... and the list just goes. Their mission is to eat up the fees. At the end of the day, they had me prepared for the court dates but i ultimately defended myself. The Judge set an unfair amount and MR.BRONZINO was asking me to accept. The judge sensed the anger i had when i accepted and then spoke to me directly and COMPLETLY ON MY OWN, i was able to use my income numbers to bring down the monthly amount myself. In conclusion, these people do not care about you, your case or your future. They're looking to do the bare minimum and charge you THE MAX. I would definitely NOT recommend.

You can easily tell by just viewing the profiles of a couple of them. They are all so the same but slightly different phrasing. The other one stars sound exactly like someone who made mistake of hiring Christine Matus. Since Christine Matus will lie in a certification about her clients as you can see from images attached, she would have no issue lying about me not being a client so I included her case notes and other documents with my name. She on the last day she spoke to my family before abandoning us when she couldn't get anymore money out of us. She was hired to represent my grandmother's estate in a probate account abounding matter with $70,000 in dispute and she billed $47,000 dollars before a month after the first court hearing. She did nothing but actively sabotaged her own case for the benefit of litigation adversaries, and extorted control of estate funds release to her trust. You dont have to take my word for it you take hers. Youtube the date of the case file notes June 11 and June 6 and hear the conversation yourself. She is currently being sued for malpractice for falling for a scam and sending $140,000+ dollars of client funds to wrong bank accounting. Tell you all you need to know that she's fighting that client to not pay them back. Her attorney in that case showed up after she terminated representation trying to settle liability before she even disclosed she had motioned court to be allowed to quit. She defaulted on that case only to suddenly have funds to answer that suit same day she extorted her fees. She refused to provide any documents even ones she received while waiting to be discharged only finally providing case documents once deadline had passed to oppose her withdrawl. If that wasn't enough, when she had to be subpoened to be forced to provide much anything we didn't give her ourselves or already had she got another lawyer a sent my own emails and documents back to us. 6700 pages ........ with less than 500 words in her case notes.

They are responsive, thorough, and always put my clients at ease throughout the buying and selling process.

My clients consistently tell me how comfortable and confident they felt knowing Christine Matus and her law firm were on their side. Whether you're buying your first home or selling a property, I highly recommend The Matus Law Firm for anyone in need of a reliable, professional, and client-focused attorney!

I recently had the privilege of working with Matthew Kalwinsky of the Taff, Davies and Kalwinsky…read moreLaw Firm. Matthew Kalwinsky was referred to me by a close friend who used him when her mother passed away a few years ago. My mother passed unexpectedly, and we were all thrown for a loop. It was a very difficult time for all us and as we continue to navigate life without her, we are still dealing with the loss. Since I was named the sole Executrix by my mother, it was my responsibility to carry out her wishes which I did to the letter. In grieving for my mother, I was also fulfilling my responsibilities as Executrix in addition to putting work into her home so it would sell it for more than what was owed on the mortgage. I felt the need to have professional guidance from an attorney to ensure I am fulfilling my Executrix responsibilities correctly, especially since I knew I would have some difficulty with a family member not even mentioned in the estate. The initial consult with Matt was an hour long. He explained the process to me, answered all of my questions & showed me nothing but respect. I did not feel rushed during that meeting and Matt put me at ease. Another thing I appreciated was the fact that when speaking to me or listening to me, Matt looked me in the eye. Those that don't look me in the eye makes me uneasy & I find it hard to trust them, especially if its' in a professional setting. In a sensitive situation like losing a family member, it's important to feel you can trust your attorney and I can say from the moment of our first meeting, I trusted Matt implicitly. At that time of our first meeting, Matt also explained his fee. He made it very clear this is what you need to pay and if it goes over such and such amount of hours, this is what it would cost above and beyond. Due to unforeseen circumstances & additional bills that came in, the estate was charged more than the initial fee to cover the additional hours they spent on it. There are emails and phone calls to substantiate the extra charge. Although Matt encouraged me to reach out whenever I had any questions, during the time in which Matt & his team were working on the informal accounting, I did not hound them with phone calls or emails. I did take into consideration that I am not the only client. I would periodically reach out to them for updates and they were forthcoming with their progress. There was a lot of paperwork in the file that had to be accounted for and although I did a lot of the work, Matt and his team had to verify it themselves before they could sign off on it. I would prefer an attorney take the time to go through everything rather than take my word for it & give me the green light to distribute to my sibling only to find out something was missed in the process which then comes back on me. There was a negative review left for Matt by a family member that I would like to address. There were 3 parties listed in my mother's will. My daughter, my sibling and I. No spouses were mentioned. Although Matt's office sent an email to my sibling, along with documents that needed a signature, my sibling nor the spouse had any communication with Matt. My sibling was advised that it would be a conflict of interest for Matt to represent anybody other than myself or the estate and if they felt the need, they could hire their own attorney. My sibling and the spouse did not hire Matt to represent "their" executrix as mentioned in the negative review. As a matter of fact, they did not want me to hire an attorney and in doing so, it caused a great deal of friction. Despite not having contact with Matt at Taff, Davies and Kalwinsky, the spouse left a 1 star review. Although I feel everybody is entitled to their opinion, when leaving a review for a company and/or a representative of the company, the reviewer should have had direct dealings with the party the review is being left for. That is not the case here. Since I was the only one from the family that hired Matt & his firm, I should be the only one from the family to leave a review. The estate was not charged extra due to a negative review despite what my family member is claiming. As a matter of fact, before the negative review was posted, I was made aware of the extra time spent on the case. I was not blindsided by the extra charge nor do I feel as if we were charged extra due to a negative review. I have no complaints about Matt or his team. On the contrary, I am very pleased. Throughout the process, I was treated with respect & compassion. Matt & the firm maintained the utmost professionalism as expected from a firm. They helped me navigate a legal process during a very difficult time. Matt and his team made sure that all paperwork pertaining to the estate was filled out and properly filed and they advised me of what steps to take in order to oversee the estate to the end. If you want an attorney that will show you kindn

Outstanding Attorney and Law Firm…read more Last year, I was involved in an accident, and because of the nature of the incident and the publicity surrounding it, things were not looking good for me. I knew I was facing a very difficult situation and was extremely worried about what the future would hold. I hired this law firm and had the privilege of having Terrance Turnbach represent me. From our very first meeting, Terrance was calm, compassionate, comforting, and reassuring. He immediately helped calm me down during one of the most stressful periods of my life. What stood out to me most was that I was never treated like just another case or another number. Terrance genuinely cared about me, and his staff did as well. They were always available when I had questions, consistently followed up with me, and kept me informed about every development in my case. Terrance and his staff fought for me every step of the way. They understood that I wasn't a bad person--I had made one terrible mistake, and that mistake had already cost me a great deal personally and professionally, including my job. When it came time to represent me in court, Terrance did so with passion, compassion, and confidence. He presented strong evidence and demonstrated to the prosecutor and the Judge that I had taken responsibility, turned my life around, and done everything that was asked of me. In the end, I received a fair and just result, and I will always be grateful to Terrance and his entire team for the way they stood by me throughout this difficult chapter of my life. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you need an attorney, I would highly recommend this law firm and Terrance Turnbach. They truly care about their clients, they listen, and they will fight for you with everything they have. I will always be thankful for the way they treated me--not just as a client, but as a person.

I finally contacted Kenneally, the managing partner, and told him about the lack of response/"free consultation." His only response was, "I'm not going to discuss our office policies with you."  Their advertising of free consultation is BS, and they don't even have the basic manners required to be in business.

Right now my case is working out well, I received the 12 months back pay just a few weeks after the hearing. Oh btw, I did not hire her until I was turned down twice. So if you have a real ssd and not trying to scam a case give Kathleen a call before you do anything because the paper work is hard to do right off the bat. Be upfront with all the doctors and if you truly need help you will get it. I had 5 dollars in my bank account when I got that first payment. I haven't worked, this has been going on for almost 2 years but that was my fault trying to do it myself . Was 100% better with counseling.
