The Law Offices of Matthew Cargal

I have worked with Matthew Cargal for nearly six years, beginning in August of 2019, and I cannot speak highly enough of his professionalism, commitment, and integrity. He was with me through an extremely long and complicated legal process and remained consistently present and available the entire time. Matthew didn’t just handle the legal side of things — he helped guide me and my family through what was a very stressful and uncertain period. When circumstances shifted and the situation became more complex, he stepped in as a steady advisor, working proactively to ensure everything was navigated correctly and responsibly. One thing that truly sets him apart is that he shows up. He didn’t pass my case off to others. He was always familiar with the details, always communicative, and when he couldn’t be physically present, he made sure arrangements were in place so nothing fell through the cracks. Thanks to his guidance, I was able to successfully bring a long chapter to a close, resolve outstanding matters, and move forward with my life. Looking back over nearly six years, I can honestly say Matthew provided the best advice possible at every step. If you are looking for an attorney who is thorough, reliable, and genuinely invested in your outcome, I strongly recommend him.

Matthew is a straight shooter his expertise and knowledge shined throughout the process. We would highly recommend him!

Matthew and his team are the best. He helped with my case and my case was dismissed in the end. It was a long road, but Matthew was with me all the time during the process. He gave clear instructions: you need this, this , and this and everything is going to be fine. I followed exactly what he said and the outcome was the most favorable. He puts his heart and soul to deliver the best. I am very satified with Matthew's work. Thank you Matt for everything you have done. You are really Top Gun Lawyer!

Our family has worked with Matthew Cargal and find him to be thorough, expedient, and understanding. His professionalism is illuminated not only by his manner, but also by the fact that he gets the job done.

There are good lawyers, great lawyers, then there's Matt... The best criminal defense attorney in Los Angeles! From day one Mr. Cargal was always there for me... I would call or text at odd hours of the night, he always responded. Matt Cargal compassionately listens, produces, and delivers! Thank you for everything Matt, GOD bless!

Matt is a great lawyer. Not only did he really go to bat for me, but he walked me through the entire court hearing, which I was very nervous about. He is very good at helping you understand what can otherwise be an intimidating process.

I got into a situation (Charged for vandalism) a little over two months ago. I met with Cargal and hired him to represent me. He adviced me not to attend court proceedings and represented me in all proceedings. Matt got the case completely dismissed on the 3rd day of court. I highly recommend Matthew Cargal; he is professional, understanding and readily accessible will give him 10 stars if possible

I came across Matt because my boyfriend had gone to him in the past and got good results. I had couple of warrants because I didn't complete the classes that I needed to do for a DUI that I got. I had contacted different lawyers just to see how I felt about each one and to see what they would say my options were. When I spoke to Matt he made me feel like I was gonna be ok. Explained to me everything that I needed to know and explained what he could do to help me fix it. He removed my warrants and re instated my classes and everything that I needed to get done without me having to go to court. I got him another case for my uncle that had a warrant and was arrested and he went to court for him. He was able to get him one year probation when it was gonna be 3 years and some classes. He's very professional and friendly I would highly recommend his services you won't regret it. Thank you Matt!

If you're looking for an attorney who is honest, professional, quick to answer ANY questions + 20 years experience look no further, Matt Cargal is your guy. Over the years he has not only helped my family but myself as well he is reasonably priced & lets just say he does NOT disappoint!!!!! Contact him, you wont regret it :)

When considering a defense attorney, you have to ask yourself... What is it exactly that you want, or better yet, what do you and your family NEED? Do you want someone to be just professional and handle your case expertly, or do you NEED someone to work diligently day in and night out on your case, be thoroughly informative, and handle the entire weight of your legal situation both firmly and delicately? Do you want someone to contact you once your case is done or do you NEED someone to be available 24/7, through emails, calls, and office visits, have any and every question answered? You will always be informed with all the inner workings of court, even when you dont have to be present. Do you want someone that will give you a consultation and charge you and arm and a leg or NEED someone that has fair rates, understands whatever economic hardship your going through, and creates flexible payment plans that cater to you? His consultations are free and put your mind at ease. If you just want Joe Schmoe to take your money, and never hear back from, and most likely bend to the will of the court system than Mr. Cargal is not your guy. But, if you NEED someone in your corner to fight for and with you as I did during my overwhelming cases, than Matthew Cargal is most definitely the attorney you NEED to represent you! Mr. Cargal helped me with two of my cases, one in 2013 and another slip up in 2014. With a 98% success rate, I figured it would be a no brainer to look him up. In both cases, he successfully tipped the scales in my favor and my family are forever grateful. It's been 5 years now no incidents, and he is currently working toward expunging both. Matt and I have created a trust, that I will forever hold dear, and he would do so with everyone that stumbles upon him. So dont hesitate to give Matt a call! Thank you again Matt, you've saved me time and time again, and it's safe to say, you've changed my life for the better!

I would like to begin by saying that recieving a DUI for the first time can get very stressfull. One can be clueless on the process and can have a very nerve racking experience if you do not know what do next.  Especially if you are going through a lot of personal issues during that time. Many people seem to decide to not go through the trouble on getting an attorney and accept the penalties they are given. However, I can not stress enough how important it is to get an attorney!  Especially a trusting and hardworking attorney like Matthew Cargal. His guidance and the ability to provide you with a stress free experience was beyond expectations. He did not only ease my concerns but provided me with faith and confidence that my case will have a positive outcome.  With complete satisfaction and happiness I write this review that my case was a success on significantly reducing many of the charges and penalities accompanying a dui case. Finally, I found his communication was probably the most important and he was available when ever you needed him. Thank you Matt!
