"I’m incredibly grateful to the Matthew James Law Firm for helping me through a legal case that took over a year to resolve. From start to finish, Francisco and Ana were extremely professional, responsive, and supportive. They always took the time to answer my questions and made sure I understood every step of the process. Although the process was long, the outcome was more than worth it — both of my charges were dropped and my case was dismissed. The cost was fair for the level of dedication and expertise they provided. I truly appreciate the hard work and commitment they put into my case. Thank you so much to the entire team at the Matthew James Law Firm!"

"I never thought I’d need a criminal defense attorney, but when I did, finding the right one was everything — and I can honestly say I found the best in El Paso the man himself Attorney Matthew James. From the first consultation, they approached my case with a level of professionalism, confidence, and attention to detail that immediately put me at ease. They didn’t make empty promises or give me false hope — they gave me facts, options, and a clear plan of action. What stood out most was how they took the time to truly understand my situation, never treated me like just another case, and always kept me informed. That level of care made a huge difference during one of the most stressful times in my life. In court, they were sharp, calm under pressure, and fully prepared — it was clear they had the respect of the judge and the prosecution. Their knowledge of local laws, their strategic thinking, and their ability to challenge the evidence ultimately led to an acquittal. I went from facing serious consequences to walking away with my future intact. This attorney didn’t just defend me — they fought for me. If you or someone you care about is facing criminal charges in El Paso, I highly recommend putting your trust in them. They are the real deal — smart, tough, and truly on your side. If you’re facing criminal charges in El Paso, don’t take chances — call this lawyer. You’ll be glad you did."
