I worked with attorney Bill Manchinton, who agreed with me on last minute call in the middle of winter holiday season, turned up to the court, and calmed my nerves on a fairly serious charge. Being a foreigner and completely oblivious to legal proceedings in this country he took his time to work with completely naive client (me) and explained to me the meaning of words such as prosecutor, trial, jury and bench trial etc. Thanks to his ingenious solution, the chain of events he created, and on extremely stringent time frame, today I am staring at a very favorable resolution, in line with many restrictions associated with my situation, including but not limited to immigration. He calmed my nerves, and never hung up on me in the state of panic and was always a hand of comfort in my case. Can't recommend his services enough. For me he played dual roles of, equally an excellent attorney and a law professor.
I cannot say enough good things about Attorney Matthew Peterson. I’ve had the privilege of working with him over the past 13 months, and throughout that entire time he has been nothing short of exceptional. Matthew is extremely knowledgeable, thorough, and strategic, but what truly sets him apart is how invested he is in his clients. He took the time to fully understand my situation, explained every step of the process clearly, and always made sure I felt informed and prepared. Even during stressful or uncertain moments, he remained calm, responsive, and professional, which gave me a great deal of confidence. His communication was outstanding — prompt, honest, and straightforward — and he never made me feel rushed or dismissed. It was clear from day one that he genuinely cares about achieving the best possible outcome for his clients, not just closing a case. If you are looking for an attorney who is sharp, dedicated, and truly has your best interests at heart, I highly recommend Attorney Matthew Peterson. Working with him over the past year plus has made a difficult process far more manageable, and I’m extremely grateful for his guidance and support.
I had the privilege of working with Attorney Chris O’Brien. The process was highly collaborative, and I was kept informed every step of the way. He was effective in court, even when dealing with a disagreeable judge. I am 100% satisfied with both the process and the outcome.
If you find yourself needing legal help in the Boston area, give this firm & Attorney Manchinton a call. The entire firm was very supportive and responsive throughout my entire case. I could tell Attorney Manchinton genuinely cared and felt a sense of indignation about what I was going through. We were able to get the best possible outcome - a dismissal at the clerk magistrate level which was such a relief. Don’t hesitate, don’t call someone else, hire the Law Office of Matthew W. Peterson.
