Client Reviews
Margaux G. September 28, 2023
Best of the Best I have dealt with quite a few lawyers over the years in regards to my ex and our custody agreement but this is the first and only lawyer I have ever left a review for. Matthew Hill and the Eggleston law firm represented me in a very emotional, highly contentious, and unique child custody battle that ended after a jury trial last September September. I am absolutely certain that if I had not had Matthew on my team with his extensive legal expertise, his ability to think quickly and react appropriately, and his unrelenting spirit in fighting for me - the results would not have been nearly as favorable. Matthew is a straight shooter, and a compassionate and extremely smart guy. He always had a back-up plan and he was 10 steps ahead of everyone else. During the trial I had the pleasure of getting to know and receiving counsel from his partners, Brian Eggleston and Janice Eggleston, as well and can’t say enough about how the entire team at their firm supported me and my family throughout the two week trial. Janice is kind, quick-witted and incredibly smart. Brian has a way of putting his clients at ease in impossible situations and is guaranteed to make you laugh. Tina is such a wonderful paralegal, she was always on point and held my hand through the worst parts of the trial while Matthew took on the fight. If you want a top tier law firm and you don’t want to be just another dollar sign on a client list - talk to Matthew Hill and the incredible people at the Eggleston law firm. You will be glad you did. For future family court litigation, Matthew is my number one choice.
