About:
It's hard to tell one lawyer from the next. It's hard to tell which ones are full of it, and which ones can back it up. So, I want you, my potential client, to learn about me, what I've done, and what I can do. I also encourage you to go to my website: www.marnerlaw.com. There you can watch video of me actually fighting for my clients in the courtroom before the judge and jury, you can read about my most recent successes, and you can get to know the person you are counting on. I serve clients in felony and misdemeanor cases in superior court, justice courts, and municipal courts throughout Maricopa County including: Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Scottsdale, and others. I tell my clients that we are a team. When you are scared and uncertain about criminal charges, about the court system, about the punishment you might face; or when you feel helpless because your loved one is facing charges, you want to know about the person you are investing your trust, time, and money in. When you retain me as your attorney, you will know who I am and what I can do for you. You won’t have to wonder, “who is this guy?,” “is he any good,” “can he help me, my child, my spouse?” You or your loved one will be my client and my teammate, not simply a paycheck as many other attorneys see you. I run my own law practice with the same dedication to fighting relentlessly for my clients as I have since my first day as an attorney. I hate bullies. I hate when the state comes after good people. I hate when the police use scare tactics and trickery to do harm to my clients and their families. And I will fight back with every tool I have at my disposal. My clients are not simply just a paycheck. I believe in what I do and I don't take my clients for granted. If you are looking for a fighter and a team approach to your case or that of your loved one, I’m sure I’ll be speaking with you soon.

"Matt Marner was nothing but GREAT when representing my young adult son who faced a fairly serious traffic related offense. Matt was always available and extremely helpful whenever we reached out and did a fantastic job explaining what we needed to know. My son was very nervous about his situation and once it was all over he told me that he felt safe with Matt, that Matt has his back and never said anything to make him feel worried or scared. As a mom living in another state, I was very thankful for that. The case resulted in one of the best outcomes that we could have expected. This was because of Matt’s experience and knowledge of the local police and legal system. He did an outstanding job navigating us through the process and we couldn’t be more thankful. I should also mention that the case resolved quickly. Because of that, Matt gave us a partial refund. I almost fell out of my chair when I found out. An attorney giving money back? Matt is definitely one of the good ones. You won’t go wrong with him."

"I had a simple case that Matthew came OVERLY prepared for. He called me numerous times regarding the case just to touch base and ensure the process was truly as simple as it could possibly be. He was professional and thorough the whole way through. If I get boned in AZ again he’s the guy I call for sure!!"

"I have never had any legal issues and I had a great experience hiring Attorney Matt. He was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain every step of the process in detail, which really helped me feel confident and informed. Matt was always helpful, patient, and responsive to my questions. I truly appreciated his professionalism and dedication. His pricing was reasonable as he worked hard to get a lot of my charges dropped. I would definitely recommend him to anyone in need of legal assistance."
