Mr. Matt Morrison came highly recommended by my investment company. I recently worked with Mr. Morrison at the MTM Law Firm to set up my trust, and I couldnt be more pleased with the experience. From the very first consultation, he was extremely professional, caring, attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to helping me protect my assets and plan for the future.
Mr. Morrison took the time to explain every detail in plain language, making a complex and confusing process feel simple and manageable. I felt respected throughout, and his thoroughness gave me confidence that my trust was being handled carefully.
Unlike other attorneys, what stood out most was his personal touch and the beginning of a new relationship built on trust and professionalism. I highly recommend Mr. Morrison at MTM to anyone looking for planning their family trust and living will. Unequivocally,

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 used MTM Law firm for help with my moms probate case in Florida. I live across the country and had not had any connection with my mom in 15 years, so this was quite an adventure getting everything in order after her death. MTM and Mr. Mortenson were PHENOMINAL... Mr. Mortenson went above and beyond many times reaching out to me personally to make sure we got everything done right. We had a few unique situations come up in this case (which he was not obligated to help with) and he handled them with ease. I would recommend these guys for any legal need you might have. Thanks for everything and helping me close this chapter in my life.

Carlos was very helpful and patient with our family in dealing with a relatives will. We had people from out of state as well as Florida and he took time to review with us the will and how best to execute our relatives wishes. He made sure we understood everything we asked him in this complicated area. I would highly recommend him and his firm to anyone who has questions and concerns about wills and probate.
