Matthew Gridley Pruden

Ms. Rawls was assigned to my case in the Spring of 2003 upon my conviction of Conspiracy to Commit First Degree Murder. I was sentenced to almost 21 years. Ms. Rawls assured me she was the finest lawyer in her field. She kept me up to date on every aspect of my case; and answered all my correspon dence promptly. She asked for, and received oral arguments in my case. When she wrote me after the oral arguments were held, at first she responded that perhaps she did not have the courts attention as they asked no questions. Eventually, they asked a minimal of questions. Her opponent, the State Attorney General, could not get a word in as she was peppered with questions from the court. Apparently, Ms. Rawls was extremely well prepared, because she did her homework long before the oral arguments. I received my letter from Ms. Rawls about 4 weeks later stating the Court reversed my decision unanimously, 3-0. This was an accurate synopsis of what I remember the course of my events during my case. From the moment Ms. Rawls took my case, until the court over turned my conviction, was 14 months. I spent 14 months in prison as opposed to 21 years all because of Ms. Rawls and her expertise. Three weeks after I received Ms. Rawls' letter telling me that my convictions were over turned, I walked out of prison. To this day, I call Ms. Rawls on the anniversary of my release (20 JUNE 04) and thank her for doing what I thought no one could do. If you are thinking of a criminal appeals lawyer, there is only one person to call: Leslie Rawls. I have no problem putting my name to this. Thank you Ms. Rawls for all you have done, Anthony

Matthew Pruden is the best lawyer in the Charlotte area. I have dealt with big names such as George Laughrun and he does not hold a candle to Mr. Pruden. Matt Pruden was professional. He saw me right away and even worked with me on payment. He was there for any questions that i had and was so help ful through the entire process. Even down to the court date he did everything in his power to make sure that justice was done. He saved my life and my reputation along with my fiancees. I would never trust my life in anyones hands except Matthew Pruden. He will make sure that you are treated fairly and that the truth prevails. I would give him 20 stars if i could.

Matt represented my loved one and did such an excellent job, that our entire family is extremely well pleased. Matt was very open and honest about what he could do. He made no promises, except that he would do his best. And he did just that. He took the time to explain each process along the way and never made me feel that I was a bother, no matter how many nor how insignificant my questions or concerns were. That I truly appreciate. I also respect the fact that he never assumed that he knew everything . He went and found the correct and most up to date information before sharing it with us. I found him to be a very humble and dedicated man. I have the utmost respect and a sincere sense of gratitude for this man. He did his job well and now our loved one is home! If you want a quality attorney working on your case call Matt.
