We would like to introduce you to Attorney Dene Matthews with The Dunn Matthews Law Firm.
The family unit is the one thing Attorney Matthews holds as of great importance. She is close with various members of her family and believes that even through troubling family times, it is important for everyone to remain connected. For that reason, Attorney Matthews takes great pride in how she tends to her client’s divorce, custody, legitimation, and all other family law matters. The family, without a healthy individual over it, can’t possibly move forward in life, and leave a positive eff ect on those behind them. Attorney Matthews started The Dunn Matthews Law Firm in 2014 with the idea that adjusting to life after a family change doesn’t have to be a stressful time, but it will have a profound impact afterwards. Attorney Matthews and her team believe that litigation doesn’t have to be as horrible as it has historically been made to seem but if you find yourself in that situation the methods her team uses to move you from point A to point B will place you in a position of knowing that your legal matter is being handled with the highest level of strategy and care. Attorney Matthews is versatile, honest, and straightforward in her approach. Attorney Matthews is married to LeRoy. Together they have two awesome little boys, Bryce and Dylan, and one sweet little princess, Alyson. She enjoys spending time reading, investing in self-care, and living a life with no regrets.
Her motto is God first, family second, and everything else is a close second. Attorney Matthews earned her law degree from Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School. She is currently the co-chair of the Newer Lawyers Affi nity Group section of the Georgia Association for Women Lawyers. dunnmatthewsfirm.com
What’s your favorite restaurant?
Honestly I'm a foodie and I don't have a favorite. Anything chicken wings, fries, seafood, or Mexican makes me happy though!
What’s your favorite movie?
The Devil Wears Prada. I could watch it everyday. A powerful woman who although tough at times, expects everyone to be their best selves.
What is one unexpected thing you alway have in your briefcase?
Food, court can be an unexpected length of time and me being hungry is not going to help my clients.
If you weren't a lawyer what would your dream job be?
An actress. I was actually in the local paper in high school. I love the theater and being able to be someone else I'm not.
