Javiel V.

When my world turned upside down, we were fortunate to have Matt by our side. Words cannot fully capture how he went above and beyond for our family during one of the most challenging times in our lives. My son was facing the possibility of life imprisonment, but from day one, Matt assured us that he would do everything in his power to prevent that from happening. His compassion and unwavering support were evident throughout the entire case.

My son was involved in a shooting incident over 2yrs ago and we hired Matt. I myself have no clue about the judicial system and I made that very clear to Matt. He was very honest, patient and respectful at all times. He kept us informed and he ALWAYS showed up. I was so upset with my son 😪 but Matt made it much easier for my son and I rebuild our relationship again. If I ever need an attorney, I’m hiring Matt again. Well wishes to your career and your team!

Matt has represented myself and others in my family. He is very professional, knowledgeable of the laws and will go to bat for his clients to get the best result for his clients. He doesn’t mind arguing the law and my family has never been anything but pleased and grateful to have his expertise. His prices are fair and I would highly recommend him to anyone. Hes not just an attorney. He is highly regarded by my entire family and always returns phone calls or texts to inform his clients of what they can expect. I will always hire Matt Farra!

Matt did an excellent job representing me throughout my time in the court system. He not only did a great job as a lawyer but treated me like a friend as well, and that is what I liked most about Matt. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a lawyer. He’s had a major impact on my life for the better and I owe him for that. Great lawyer and a great guy, no doubt. Thanks again Matt!

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What should I do if I’ve been charged with a crime in Louisville?

Contact a criminal defense attorney immediately — before speaking to police or prosecutors. You have the right to remain silent, and anything you say can be used against you. Attorney Matt Farra is available by call or text 24/7 at (502) 314-4499. Early legal involvement is one of the most important steps you can take to protect your record, your rights, and your future.

2. How much does it cost to hire a criminal defense attorney?

Legal fees vary depending on the complexity of your case and the charges involved. Farra Law offers transparent fee structures and will walk you through costs during your free initial consultation. Investing in quality defense early often reduces far greater financial and personal consequences down the road.

3. What types of criminal cases does Farra Law handle?

Farra Law handles a wide range of criminal matters in Louisville and Jefferson County, including DUI and drunk driving, drug charges, assault, domestic violence, theft, felony and misdemeanor defense, probation violations, traffic offenses, juvenile defense, white collar crimes, and expungements. Every case is handled directly by Attorney Matt Farra from start to finish.

4. Can my charges be reduced or dismissed?

In many cases, yes. Farra Law examines evidence, police procedures, constitutional issues, and prosecutorial weaknesses to pursue charge reductions, dismissals, or favorable plea negotiations. Results depend on the specifics of your case, but aggressive pretrial work in Jefferson County courts frequently produces outcomes short of conviction.

5. Will I work directly with Attorney Matthew J. Farra?

Yes. Every case at Farra Law is handled directly by Matt Farra from your first consultation through resolution. You will always have direct access to your attorney — not a paralegal or associate — which means clear communication and a defense strategy tailored specifically to your situation.
