Matthew Scott
I hired Matthew Bills at Barack Ferrazzano to assist my small business with a contract dispute that was veering toward litigation. My case involved a supplier who failed to meet the terms of our agreement, leading to significant delays. Matthew's background in commercial litigation was evident from the start; he understood the nuances of our situation quickly and his recognition in that practice area is well-deserved. He drafted a strong demand letter that referenced relevant Illinois law and ultimately helped us negotiate a settlement without going to court, which was our primary goal. However, the experience was not without its frustrations. Communication was sometimes slower than I would have liked, with responses to emails taking a couple of days during non-critical periods. While his legal analysis was sound, I occasionally felt I had to follow up to get updates on the negotiation's progress. For a straightforward matter, his three years of post-law school experience proved sufficient, but the process felt more reactive than proactive at times. He is a capable attorney who achieved the desired result, though the client service aspect could be more attentive.
