Welcome to MatChat. In MatChat you will find several rooms dedicated to the various topics associated with our website, our products, and most importantly, practicing Family Law in New York State.

Clicking the Chat room name takes you to that chat room where yuo can talk LIVE with other people in the chat room. Clicking the History button takes you to a complete transcript - that is searchable - of every conversation held in that room. Some rooms may only be accessible via history - i.e. they are no longer open for public input but are kept a matter of record so people can refer back to the conversations as necessary.

MatChat History files are available to Gold Members only.

To participate in the LIVE chat, simply enter text in the field at the bottom of the popup Chat page and press send, or the [enter] key on your keyboard.

To leave the chat room, simply press the logoff button.

Searching History: Simply enter the date or a phrase to search on.  Usually you will do this in combination. First search for a phrase - write down the date that the entry was made, then go back and change the search to that date, to read the entry in it's full context.
