horrible person
I could not recommend Matthew less as a parenting consultant. He was horrible to work with, and our child suffered because of his gross negligence. Matthew made it very clear from the moment we signed the contract that he had no interest in meeting anyone involved. He never spoke to our child or knew anything about her. We had glaring issues involving unnecessary and harmful medications being given to our child, and Matthew refused to talk to any of the medical providers or the school to get the full picture. Coparent sent him notes full of lies, and he believed them without verifying anything even though we begged him to follow up/ investigate. We were able to get everything reversed without him because the providers were being lied to as well (we had documentation), but not after our child lost 40% of her body weight in a very short amount of time and suffered physically and emotionally. And we still had to pay Matthew thousands of dollars for refusing to do anything. We were ordered to pay 90% of his fees (hundreds of dollars per email) so of course the other parent (who only pays 10%) sent many unnecessary emails just to play games and rack up our bill. Matthew is only in it for the money and seemed to enjoy this. Our sole purpose for hiring a PC was to evaluate parenting time and make it more equal. Our child was in a dangerous situation with her other parent, and we have a safe and loving home and desperately wanted more time with her. Matthew said repeatedly he had no interest or intention of doing that, and could not give any reason. We asked Matthew reallocate his fees to 50/50 to make things equal and stop the unnecessary spending games, which he also denied. When we asked to terminate the contract to find someone else who would be more reasonable, Matthew refused. Again, he loves the payday. Matthew does not have your child’s best interest in mind.
