Working relentlessly to protect your investment

Before becoming an attorney, Matt worked for several years in the pharmaceutical industry, where he concentrated on brand identity and regulatory compliance of promotional activity. Now he leverages that experience to help his clients achieve their business goals through directed and focused counseling.

Matt works with his clients to meet their individual business needs. Those needs are often addressed through pre-dispute counseling, alternative dispute resolution tactics and settlement. His goal is to help clients reach beneficial resolutions as efficiently as possible, which has made him an integral part of settlement teams that have successfully resolved multimillion-dollar litigations. Matt also has extensive experience in all stages of trial and appellate practice, including pre-suit investigations, pleadings, e-discovery, expert discovery, motion practice, trial, appellate briefing and oral argument.

Matt's client advocacy shines through his pro bono work, which focuses on immigration cases involving asylum applicants. His victories successfully securing asylum for refugees fleeing persecution in their homelands are a testament to both his advocacy and trial skills.
