Rock-solid advocate for his client

I turned to Matt when I needed advice on a medical malpractice issue. It was the best decision I made. He and his team gave me their full attention, answered all my questions, and helped me choose the best course of action. I needed someone I could trust to represent my interests, and I was very happ...y with my decision to call Matt. I unequivocally recommend Matt and his team.

Passionate and Caring Lawyer

Matt and his team were able to help me when no one else would. I was at a very low point in my life when I found out the Doctor who was treating my cancer had not treated the correct areas. Matthew went above and beyond to make sure I got the attention I deserved and was able to put my mind at ease w...hen times were very hard for me emotionally.

Matthew L. White is the little guy's friend and will stand for his clients against big cooperations

I am a certified Para-Legal and have worked with many attorneys over the years both civil and criminal. However, I met Mr. White when I was looking for an attorney to represent me after being wrongfully terminated by a large quasi-governmental cooperation. That was a very stressful time in my life an...d I found him to be compassionate, professional and very knowledgeable. He took time to listen to what had happened and did not make me feel rushed or interrupt me while I was trying to explain the situation(s) I had experienced regarding my former employer. My former employer had a well-documented history of overwhelming anyone who dared challenge them in court. They are represented by an army of high priced lawyers from a very prestigious Evansville, Indiana law firm. However, I was able to rely on Mr. White’s knowledge and expertise to help navigate me to a successful resolution of my case. Any time I had a question or concern regarding me case he made time to return my calls and discuss the matter in question. As a result of my positive experience, I have made numerous referrals to Mr. White and will continue to do so. When I learn a law suit has been filed against a company/cooperation and Matt White is the attorney representing the “Little Guy”, I almost feel sorry for the company…ALMOST

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
