I cannot recommend Matt Wertheim highly enough. After reaching out to several attorneys for a…read moreconsultation, Matt was by far the fastest to respond. He offered a complimentary consultation, took the time to carefully review my case, and provided a very reasonable quote for his services. What impressed me most was his responsiveness and efficiency. He thoroughly reviewed my documents and got back to me with thoughtful, detailed feedback in less than 24 hours--closer to 10 hours. His knowledge and expertise were immediately apparent, and he was able to quickly assess the legal issues and provide clear, practical guidance. Even after our consultation, Matt went above and beyond by following up the next day and then checking in again a few days later to see if I had any additional questions. That level of professionalism and genuine care is rare. I also called him for his opinion on another aspect of my case, and he gave me an honest answer rather than trying to sell me on additional services. That integrity meant a great deal to me and is something that's not always easy to find. If you're looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, responsive, honest, and truly has his clients' best interests at heart, I highly recommend Matt Wertheim. If you need legal assistance in real estate or related matters, you will be in excellent hands.

I've known Matt Wertheim professionally for decades and have always respected his skill as both a…read morelitigator and a negotiator. When I needed a mediator for a construction case headed toward arbitration, Matt was the first person I called. My client--a homeowner--was quite ill but very much wanted to participate in the mediation personally. Matt didn't hesitate. He agreed to conduct the mediation at my client's home, and his flexibility made all the difference. His "shuttle diplomacy" was literal that day: Matt moved back and forth between my client's living room and an outdoor deck where the contractor and his attorney were stationed. He handled the situation with patience, empathy, and professionalism, keeping everyone engaged and moving forward even when the parties seemed stuck. Matt has all the qualities you want in a mediator--calm, creative, persistent, and genuinely committed to helping people resolve their disputes. When the negotiation reached an impasse, he proposed a mediator's proposal that both sides ultimately accepted, bringing the case to a successful resolution. I recommend Matt as a mediator without hesitation.

Matthew Talbot was my lawyer in my Financial Elder Abuse case. After paying him over $80,000, he…read morewas disqualified by Contra Costa County Superior Court Judge Virginia M. George. Mr. Talbot failed to disclose to me that he previously met with the person I was suing and discussed my case with her. Mr. Talbot said the he misspelled the other persons name and therefore, she did not show up on his client file. After Judge George looked at the evidence provided by the person I was suing, the Judge determined that Mr. Talbot did in fact discuss my case with her and therefore, she disqualified him. I hired another attorney, but after spending another $20,000 on the new attorney, I realized I did not have the funds to get the new attorney up to speed. Mr. Talbot did offer to only reimburse me for $20,000, but later rescinded his offer. Although my being a disabled first responder injured in the line of duty and a senior citizen, Mr. Talbot displayed no compassion or remorse for his error. Nor did he want to make things right. Please feel free to get Mr. Talbot's side of the story should you decide to interview him to represent you. My Contra Costa County Court case number is P22-01239. Mr. Talbot's disqualification is noted in the court records.
