About this firm

Experienced litigator aggressively protecting your rights since 1997

Perhaps you or a loved one was charged with a crime or received a traffic ticket for a serious offense. Maybe you were involved in an auto accident. Or you need a will or are contemplating a divorce. Whatever the reason, everyone needs an attorney at some point. And when you do, the law firm of Matthew R. Zatko is prepared to help.

From my office in Somerset, Pennsylvania, I represent individuals, families and businesses in matters involving:

Criminal defense

Personal injury law

Estate planning and probate

Family law

Real estate law

Business law

Fighting for you. Every step of the way.

Approximately 50 percent of my business is the result of word-of-mouth referrals from current and past clients. My reputation is well-deserved — for the past 14 years I have honed my litigation skills fighting tenaciously on my clients' behalf. I am dedicated to "helping people during their greatest time of need."

My clients can count on me for:

Strong, strategic representation — I listen to the details of your situation and analyze it from every angle before determining the right way to handle it. My goal is to obtain the best possible results for each of my clients, and I put in the time and effort to do so.

Success in the courtroom or at the negotiating table requires dedication, meticulous preparation, and the ability to quickly and accurately assess rapidly changing situations to determine the best way to proceed. I am adept in all of these areas and am always prepared to protect my clients' best interests.

Personal service — When you contact the law firm of Matthew R. Zatko, you speak with me directly. I discuss your legal issue with you and guide you through each phase of your case, answering your questions and addressing your concerns along the way. Your case is not passed off to a first-year associate; you get an experienced attorney who is with you throughout the entire process.

Compassionate support — I understand that dealing with a challenging legal situation can be stressful for you and your family. My office is a safe, judgment-free place where you can feel comfortable sharing the details of your situation.
