Overview

Matthew is a commercial litigator who’s passionate about delving into cases and exploring finer points of law.

Matthew handles complex litigation matters, with a special focus on no-fault insurance defense. He currently devotes most of his time to helping a major rental company manage hundreds of such cases in New York venues; however, he has a broad background with experience in a wide variety of types of litigation. Matthew began his legal career at a very small firm where he was tasked with managing just about every litigation matter that came in the door, from trademark matters to debt collection to landlord/tenant rights to title actions and mortgage renegotiations. The intense experience prepared him for just about anything a case might throw at him.

Complex litigation is a perfect fit for Matthew’s analytical mind: he truly enjoys legal research, and he describes himself as someone who wants to find an answer to everything. He’s known for finding the details that others have missed, and he has built a reputation for presenting winning arguments to courts that they’ve never heard before.

Clients see Matthew as a reliable, trusted resource who’s able to answer unique questions on complex regulations and points of law. He has a true gift for explaining legal intricacies in a way that’s easy for clients to understand and apply.
