Law Offices of Donald J Matson, PC

he was probably the best and most honest lawyer out there. i didn ‘t hire him but i called him to ask if it’s even worth it to try and fight for my traffic ticket. He was sincere and gave me advised eventhought i didn ‘t hire him. at this point i am still debating over if i should hire a lawyer to represent me and if i do end up fighting for the ticket Donald is the man and only man i would consider. I would highly recomend him to as many people as i can base on how sincere he is. It is very hard to find honest lawyer out there… this guy is a rare gem !!!
also for his wonderful staff. what a wonderful customer service she provided. i am very very impressed !!

I don’t know what kind of black magic he used, but Don got me out of a speeding ticket for more than 10 over the limit. The fee was very reasonable, only a little more than the ticket itself, and I’m super happy that money went to Mr. Matson instead of rewarding cops for issuing predatory tickets. Don was very efficient, walking me quickly through the process and making me feel comfortable with his general approach, but did not take any more time than necessary and just got it done. Very pleased with the outcome and I recommend Don to anyone with similar issues in the Pasadena or nearby areas.

I’m so impressed by the proffessionalism and the knowledge. Don is so easy to talk to (at any time too) and knowledgeable about the law that I couldnt help but retain his services. I had to have him deal with some legal paperwork that took about 3 months to fully process and not once was he not reachable or readily available for questions. Great guy and a great team! Thank you, Don.

If a lawyer is supposed to be courteous, efficient and effective, Don Matson is a great advert for himself and his profession. Two traffic tickets, two dismissals. All good.

Donald Rocks! He is very attentive and works with you financially. Very quick and great results as far my traffic violations went. I came out clean each time. I will go back to him if need be and have. Wish there were more attorneys out there like him. Highly recommend!

Literally the best lawyer I’ve had the pleasure speaking to
I have been calling all over the place looking for a decent lawyer to help me with my record. And he was honest and walked me through the process and that it was simple enough for me to do it myself. He made no money off of me and was a complete honest good guy. If I ever have problems I am coming back to Don. Literally the best lawyer I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. You will not regret it.

Short review: Don is THE BEST. Don’t hesitate to call him if you need legal help. He is friendly, honest and capable and he will make whatever bad situation that you are dealing with better.
Long review: I got a pretty serious speeding ticket on New Year’s Day trying to get to my parent’s house in time for my Dad’s open heart surgery the next day. Of all of the things that I needed to deal with, a speeding ticket with pretty severe consequences was the last thing that I wanted to deal with. I searched car forums, Unilocal and some various DIY websites for how to fight a ticket, and I ultimately decided that given Don’s Unilocal reviews, he was who I should contact first. I am SO glad that I did. Don is incredibly responsive. I left him a voice mail while he was in court and he texted me back immediately saying that he was in court but would call me soon. I met him at his office later that day, because I tend to prefer face to face interaction for something such as this, and Don is the real deal. We discussed the ticket and the strategy to fight it, what works, what doesn’t and a whole lot of other non-​ticket related things, because Don is just a genuinely great and caring person. I left feeling so much better about the whole situation knowing that I have the right person dealing with the issue to give me the best chance at the outcome that I seek. It will take a while for all of this to play out, but whatever happens, I know that I did the right thing by going to Don.

I just had a phone conversation with Attorney Don. He is the most friendly and most helpful attorney whom I have known so far. I called him re: my domestic violence case as a victim, and he was very patient with all my questions and tried to help me the best that he could. His voice is very soothing, and sounds genuine. Thanks a lot, Don. I know despite your busy schedule, you still took the time answer my call and spoke to me with no condition. I would definitely look for you or recommend you to everyone whom I know for legal issues.

I was just about to go with another lawyer that never returned my calls, but my gut said to keep looking. I thought I was in a dream when I found DON to represent my 18 year old son for 3 tickets and an accident. Don is one of the best people person I know. It felt like Iv’e always known him. He is so good at what he does. All he needs is a cape, and Christmas is coming. By the way, Don got all three tickets dismissed and the accident was not my sons fault. Thanks Don!!!

Don is awesome! I called him up a couple years ago to get some quotes and some insight on a few traffic violations I’ve had. I have a lead foot and it gets me in trouble. Don gave me a fair price and talking with him through the phone I felt I could trust him to help me out and get the best outcome for me. I met in the lobby of his residence and we went over a few things. He is a really laid-​back guy and its so easy to have a conversation with him. He had a lot in common with me so I felt he understood where I was coming from. Anyway… a year later hes pulled a few tricks and beat one ticket and got the other one reduced (I was going 95 in a 50 and he got it reduced to a 65 in a 50 AND got me traffic school. Still have a couple other one’s we’re fighting right now but everythings in order! Thanks Don! You are definitely my go-​to guy!

Argh! I’m so upset BECAUSE I wish I would have found Don sooner! When I first spoke with him he was so nonchalant it made me a little nervous. «Are you sure?» I kept asking to his constant, «don’t worry, I got it covered.» Well just yesterday I got a text saying «Case Dismissed!» Thanks Don. Highly Recommend!

Don just got a second ticket of mine dismissed! Seriously Don is the man. He knows how to make the system work FOR YOU. What I paid him to fight the two tickets I received back to back last year was far less than what it would have cost to pay the fines, court fee, traffic school, and I still would have had a point on my record.
You get a citation? GO SEE DON. Period. You pay a reasonable fee and you FORGET ABOUT IT. He will update you in a timely manner through all phases.

AWESOME!!! The only word I can described Don as a person an a honest lawyer. What can I say? Don knows what he is doing and he is very friendly. I was charged with 3 violations on a traffic ticket. 1. Driving with suspended license (DUI)
carpool by my myself 3. doing 100mph. Yes I was stupid and all that means is I am going to jail. Did I learn my lesson? YES. However I found Don on Unilocal.Next thing you know. My driving with suspended license was lower to a driving with no license (no jail time) and the other two charges was dropped. HOLY CRAP! DON, you are amazing.
Please give Don a call if you need ANY legal help.
He is funny
He is honestly
He is the best

I FINALLY found an honest lawyer. Just when I was beginning to believe that the words «honest lawyer» were and oxymoron.
Don goes above and beyond what most lawyers do these days. He answers the phone, he promptly returns his call, he freely gives out recommendations for other lawyers the specialize in other parts of the law, he even calls to remind you that your son’s ticket is due tomorrow.
He did a great job for us in court. Although he could not avoid the fine (the officer showed up) he was able to prevent the ticket from adding another point to his recording and upping his insurance rates.
Unfortunately, I have had to work with dozens of lawyers in my life. I am so grateful that I have now found a lawyer I can truly trust.
Thank you, Don!

Don. What can I say? If you need legal advice, make sure to give him a call. I just got off the phone with him and he provided me with with some great pointers! His advice is invaluable. His services are professional. His willingness to strategize upon initial contact — saintly.
Don is a professional and he is trustworthy.
Call Don. Save his number. Send him a gift-​basket.
Thank you Don!

Honestly it feels good to know someone that knows the law has got your back. How often do you feel taken advantage of because of your lack of knowledge of the law?
Donald Matson is here to help you!
I had a traffic ticket and a car accident a month a part, and during those horrible times i had Donald there to advise me on what the best course of action to take. I am so glad i asked for advice because if i just acted out my own plan, my results would NOT be as good, and I would have had a blemish on my driving record!
Donald is definitely the right person to call when you are in trouble. If you’ve got a legal problem, he’s got the solution!
He got my ticket dismissed so that I don’t have to worry about points on my record (:
Save his number now!

In this day and age, it’s completely refreshing to hire someone who delivers exactly what he promises. That person is Don Matson.
I really don’t know what I would’ve done if I hadn’t taken a chance and called Don after reading his reviews on Unilocal.Normally, I take such reviews with a massive grain of salt, assuming that people usually either have an axe to grind, or are friends with the person they should be reviewing objectively. So even though he had great reviews here, I was reluctant to call. However, from the moment we first spoke, he put me at ease, and my concerns about my case to rest. I’d been pulled over with an expired license and subsequently cited with a failure to appear due to a court error (they filed my ticket twice, at two different courthouses). I’d been to the courthouse four times and gotten nothing but the runaround. I was practically in tears when I finally called Don, who not only went to court for me so I wouldn’t miss yet another day of work trying to straighten things out, but got the case completely DROPPED. He also handled a second ticket for me while he was there! On top of THAT, he paid my fine for that ticket right there on the spot, so I wouldn’t have to bother sending in a check to the court. Can we say detail oriented? Trustworthy? The best part is that Don is also an incredibly nice guy, and really cared about my case and getting me the best resolution possible. He answered my texts minutes after they reached him, and the day he went to court, he sent me reassuring updates throughout the entire process. I am, by nature, a worrywart, and Don firmly and confidently made sure I understood the process every step of the way, which allowed me to relax for the first time in weeks.
There are a lot of lawyers out there. Some good, some bad, some complete nightmares. But if you want the best, call Don. You won’t regret it.

To hear those first words of «You Better Call Don» and actually doing so myself. I can honestly say «You Better Save Don’s Number.» He is a man that handles his legal services in the most professional manner that I have ever seen while ensuring your well-​being to the fullest to his potential.
He does top notch legal services at a very affordable price.
A great man once said «If you break the law, make sure you only break one law at a time» — Donald Matson (A True Master in His Line of Work)

I recently enlisted the services of Don and his team with regards to a car accident that I was involved in. This was my first ever car accident in my 20 years of driving, and I had no idea what do to. I’m from the UK.
Don was very professional, explained everything clearly and a master when it came to communication. I could email him any time of the day and he would always reply very promptly. You can’t beat that for customer service.
If you’re in need of legal help, please do give Don a call, as you will not be disappointed.
Highly recommended: o)

He did it! I even made a mistake that extended the process (misunderstanding) and he still pulled it off.
Always quick to answer an email (though I did have to check in at times) and you can’t argue with results.
