I had the privilege of serving alongside Matt as a platoon mate on the same SEAL Team. Years later, when I needed legal help, Matt was there for me again through Parlatore Law Group. He’s incredibly sharp, honest, dependable, and genuinely cares about the people he represents. I’m grateful to know him both as a former teammate and as an attorney, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

I highly recommend Matthew Minikus at Parlatore Law Group. Matt demonstrated exceptional diligence, professionalism, and consistent follow-up throughout one of the most difficult periods my family and I have faced.
As a fellow veteran and SOF operator, he brought a level of understanding, integrity, and commitment that went far beyond standard legal counsel. He was deeply invested in ensuring that I was properly advised and supported while we navigated false law enforcement charges. His calm guidance, strategic insight, and personal dedication gave my family confidence when we needed it most.
Matt treated our situation as more than just a case—he genuinely cared about the outcome and about protecting my family’s future. His influence and support were invaluable, and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I am very grateful for the time and care Matthew Minikus gave during my consultation. He didn't rush and made sure I understood what was going on while we spoke and took the time to walk me through my options, including my best and worst case scenarios.
What stood out the most for me was how clearly the details were explained that most people would overlook. I never felt confused or overwhelmed during the process. Matthew was very responsive and easy to communicate with. I appreciate the time and attention he gave to my case along with the clarity he provided.

I reached out to Parlatore Law Group while navigating a complex legal situation and looking for the right representation. From the very beginning, Matthew Minikus stood out for his expertise, honesty, and genuine care. He took the time to fully understand my circumstances and was transparent about whether he was the right attorney to assist, which I deeply respected. Rather than rushing our conversation or pushing me in any direction, he prioritized clarity and my best interests.
Matthew carefully reviewed an agreement related to my matter and provided a thorough and thoughtful analysis that helped me understand important details and considerations I would not have recognized on my own. His explanations were clear, insightful, and grounded- which gave me confidence in how to move forward. It was evident that he approaches his work with integrity and takes his role as an attorney seriously.
Overall, my experience working with Matthew was reassuring and informative. He was responsive, knowledgeable, and generous with his insight, and I felt supported throughout the process. I would highly recommend Matthew Minikus and Parlatore Law Group to anyone seeking an attorney who is not only highly competent, but also ethical, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in helping clients make informed decisions.
