Mr. Sheasby is an amazing attorney. His attention to detail is what makes him good at what he does. He has a lot of knowledge in more than one area and truly cares about his clients. His office staff work together to give each client the service that they need. I have gone to Mr. Sheasby for more than one issue over the years and he is consistent in his service. Before going anywhere I would highly suggest a consultation with Matt Sheasby.

If you are a Male looking for a Divorce Attorney I would skip this particular Attorney. He is strictly for women and do not let him take your money. I was told by Mr. Sheasby exactly this, "it is your word against hers and yours does not matter. He chose my case to not fight for me as he has a relationship with my ex's best friend. He should be disbarred.

Very happy with the outcome of my divorce case. Mathew Sheasby got me to the finish line. He fought for me and very thankful for his service and dedication to my case. He took time to explain everything to me. The divorce language is very foreign to me. Any time I have questions and concerns, him and his team address it in a timely manner. I'm glad I called him. I had a very difficult Ex. He wanted me to pay him alimony, child support and he wants 50/50 custody. But at the end my Ex had to pay me child support. I have custody of my kids 86%. I do not pay me alimony. Very impress by him at trial. Great crossed examinations and closing statements. I highly recommend him if you are going through a divorce. You will not be disappointed. Money well spent. So glad it's over!!!
