        Matthew Haltzman and the team he has built for his firm did a fantastic job with my case. This firm was recommended to me by a close friend of mine. Mr. Haltzman is quick to respond to even the simplest questions or concerns and keeps the best interest of his clients in mind. During the period that I was a client, I was also navigating the law school admissions process. Mr. Haltzman went above and beyond to assist with any questions and to offer advice. I give Haltzman Law Firm the upmost recommendation for any type of criminal, personal injury, or DUI related cases one might find themselves in.

        We found ourselves needing legal advice for the first time in or lives,right in the middle of the holiday season.This was a very stressful situation for us and we were worried about our hearing.Matt and Kohl immediately put us at ease.Both were very professional,knowledgeable, experienced and easy to work with. Both made sure we knew what to expect during the hearing and worked very hard for us in a very short period of time.We received excellent results and we highly recommend The Haltzman Law Firm.

        Matt not only has the personality and attributes to be a very effective attorney, but also has the drive to achieve the best possible outcomes for his clients. In short, he is a fantastic advocate for his clients and I would highly recommend him to any prospective client.

        Haltzman law firm represented me on a pretty serious traffic ticket, speeding in a construction zone, and his result were outstanding! Def would recommend Matt to anyone.I also would like to say, that as a transgender person dealing with constant discrimination, such as purposeful misgendering, Matt was an amazing ally on that front consistently correcting the court for me.He also took my mental illness into account and made sure to do his best to assist me and help me along the way.I thought that was worthwhile to share for any of the trans and or neurodivergent community looking for a lawyer who cares in this area.

        Our son was involved in a very serious accident, with very serious implications. Words cannot describe how thankful we are to have had Matthew in our corner! He offered extreme expertise/knowledge and a calm, reassuring demeanor throughout our time working with him. Matthew drastically improved the outcome of our son’s case and for this, we cannot be more appreciative!! If you are ever in need of an amazing Lawyer, and outstanding Law Firm, we highly recommend Matthew and the Haltzman Law Firm!!
