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 highly recommend calling Matthew for all of your estate needs! He helped our family with our granddads estate and helped make a extremely stressful situation way less stressful. He's patient, kind, and caring and truly cares about helping his clients in handling things during the most difficult and devastating times in life.

I called Matt to assist with getting my Dads legal affairs in order. My dad has just been hospitalized in Lakeland but I was in Alabama. Matt was incredibly helpful through the entire process. He explain options and talked through pro and cons of each. Once a process was decided he completed all paperwork quickly and even offered to personally meet with my dad in the hospital to have everything signed while I dialed in from Alabama. Call Matt you will not be disappointed.

An Exceptional Attorney for Estate Issues
We recently had the privilege of working with Attorney Matthew Morrison to resolve the estate issues of a loved one who passed away unexpectedly. We cannot express enough how grateful we were for the exceptional service and support provided by Attorney Morrison during this difficult time.
From the moment we reached out to Attorney Morrisons office, he displayed a high level of professionalism and empathy. He took the time to listen to our concerns and understand the circumstances surrounding the estate. Attorney Morrison demonstrated a deep knowledge of estate law and guided us through the entire process with utmost care and attention to detail.
What sets Attorney Morrison apart is his ability to explain complex legal concepts in a clear and concise manner. He patiently answered all our questions and ensured that we fully understood the implications of each decision. Attorney Morrison provided us with sound advice and helped us make informed choices that were in the best interest of the estate.
Throughout the entire process, Attorney Morrison maintained open and transparent communication. He promptly returned our calls and emails, keeping us updated on the progress of the case. We always felt well-informed and confident that our loved one's estate was in capable hands.
Not only did Attorney Morrison handle the legal aspects of the estate with expertise, but he also showed genuine compassion and understanding. Dealing with the loss of a loved one is never easy, but Attorney Morrison provided a comforting presence and reassurance throughout the entire process.

MTM law firm was engaged to settle my deceased brothers estate. The time to complete the estate settlement took much longer than expected due to the challenges of navigating the FL legal system as well as the frustrating,, slow, bureaucratic processes of the estate department of Wells Fargo bank.
However in spite of the above MTM law firm stayed the course and successfully completed the disposition of the estate assets. MTM law firm also saved me the cost and time of a CA to FL. trip by securing and shipping contents of a safe deposit box at no additional charge. The amount of time and effort put forth by MTM far exceeded their fee for services. Would I use them again? Absolutely!

Mr. Morrison was a great help to us in being able to keep our home after his parents unplanned death. If we have any concerns still after the probate was done he still helps us understand what we don't know. He is a great probate lawyer and very knowledgeable about his work.Thanks for all of your help.

Carlos and Team are amazing! Hands down the most genuine and honest lawyers.
I am an AF Military member having recently returned from a deployment who was met with a letter from the IRS being charged $9k & significant home damage (on a new build).
Carlos and team have been such a guiding light in the middle of chaos. I have never had issues with my Taxs and never dealt with needing to pursue a housing lawsuit. Without hesitation he guided me, and stated call him whenever I needed. He kept his word.
Beautiful thing, light at the end of the tunnel - taxs resolved with his guidance to hire a CPA (saved $9k) and direction to ensure unwarranted damages to my house will be taken care of.
They have a specialized fieldhowever, their law firm and team are good people with big hearts.
Thank you gentlemen for your time, Im am forever in debt.
Cheers,
Vanessa
