Biography
Matthew R. Conklin handles workers’ compensation and social security disability cases.
Matt received his law degree from the University of Detroit-Mercy Law School, the same law school his grandfather attended. Matt’s grandfather practiced workers’ compensation law around Detroit for nearly 30 years.
Matt worked his way through school. He had demanding warehouse jobs, drove delivery trucks, and cut down trees. He knows firsthand the toll hard work can have on a person. Matt committed his legal career to fighting for injured workers or families who lost a loved one.
Matt is a respected litigator. His peers elected him to multiple terms on the State Bar of Michigan Workers’ Compensation Section Council, where he served as the Section Chair from 2023 to 2024.

Thanks for all the help!!
Attorney Matt Conklin was a pleasure to work with. He kept track of all aspects of my case and took the stress out of having to deal with the insurance company. He worked very hard to get me the best settlement. I would highly recommend him to family and friends.
