Tate DeanOctober 14, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. When I met Matthew I had been looking for a lawyer for a short time but already spoken to 4 others. He called me back proptly and we spoke for a long time about my case but also who I was as a person. I felt heard and supported and the way he spoke about his knowledge regarding my case's nature, he had already presented himself better than any of the other lawyers I had met. When we appeared at court he was strong and direct and efficient. I was very impressed on every court visit and I feel like he gave me and my case the attention I hoped for. I don't know what I was expecting but this was so much better. I can't say i was just lucky to have this man as my lawyer. He really helped me. Following up, I'm thankful for his legal representation, impressed by his personal character and I would recommend him to anyone seeking support through their struggle with the Rhode Island court system. FIVE STARS! I wish I could give him 6. Christine GuardinoSeptember 26, 2024Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mr. LaMountain is patient, respectful and informative.
