Matthew Michaud, Esq.
Personal Profile

Since we don't like boasting, we will just share what our clients are saying:
"Professional and focused; hardworking and gets the job done right the first time. The best lawyer you can find! Matt doesn't come across like most lawyers I have met. From the beginning of my legal needs, he took his time with the details and really got to know every aspect of my case. He asked questions clearly so he understands and it's almost like he put himself in my shoes. He is very much a straight shooter, which I appreciate. Matt is a professional, but he is also a person that you'll feel is a friend. When you choose him, you choose more than a lawyer; you choose a real advocate you can keep coming to. Thank you Matt for all your hard work, and for helping me through one of the most difficult times of my life. You made the transition easier and allowed me to focus on more important things."
Those are not my words... the above is a review from one of our clients.

Personal Profile

Business Operations Director,
Senior Investigative Digital Forensic Analyst
Senior Paralegal, GA, Notary Public.
Simone Michaud possesses the ability to view the legal industry and the applications of business marketing from a unique perspective. She's a unicorn in our book. Frankly, there would be no Chain Breaker Law Firm if it was not for Simone's brilliant creativity, business mindset, and drive to build-out this law firm in support of her family and others like her, who are looking for the support from a firm that has no bias because of not understanding the complexities of cultural diversity––for these reasons, we would be remiss to not make this fact come to light. Simone thought up the idea of creating this firm to address the needs of the underserved, and have placed them into action, bringing life to the firm as we know it today. Today, we have clients that spans from the USA, Japan, South Africa, into the Caribbean because of her vast knowledge, business, and interpersonal skills. She is dedicated, honest, upfront, and most of all, has a strong passion for helping people. Her ties to the Caribbean Community here in Georgia, and around the world has helped her build bridges that our company thrives on today. Her experiences have strongly impacted the way we do business and who we are as a law firm. Simone's unique education, talents, and level of expertise are second to none. For many, learning about the reality of the justice system can be intimidating, but she welcomes the challenge in order to understand its complexities and how to apply her knowledge to help make a positive impact in our client’s lives and the Caribbean community. Simone's vision and background and study of the Criminal Justice System, which she has been studying for almost two decades, along with her understanding of Business Development and Management, coupled with a Paralegal Certification which she completed in 2013, brings to the table––a well rounded set of skills that has helped to shape our firm. She has continued her studies of Alabama, Georgia, and Caribbean law since that time. She is committed to providing honest, flexible and caring service to all our clients. Simone's positivity and optimism are infectious attributes that we welcome. Currently, Simone is pursuing her MBA and the LSAT, to become a practicing attorney at our firm. We are proud to have her on board the Chain Breaker Law Firm Team.

Commendation

"I've known Simone from she was a teenage girl growing up in beautiful Jamaica. I've watched her growth, seen first-hand––her love for family, and have mentored her in her professional development. I can attest to her integrity and dedication in all that she aspire to achieve. There's not many people that I can truly say that I've met who has made such an impact on me over the years as an old Marine. A true person of integrity knows to give credit where credit is due.
