A Lawyer that cares about justice

Matt is evidence that honest attorneys still exist

I came to Matt after an employer tried to enforce an unfair non compete with terms that prevented me from doing business with any of my mainstay clients . I’m a parent of three and was scared of losing my ability to compete within my industry and provide for my family. When I first reached out Matt h...e took time out of his schedule without hesitation to meet with me right away. He never made me feel like just another client. He showed dedication to me and my situation by ensuring that no stone was left unturned. When we first began working together he was a relatively new lawyer and had recently opened his first firm. His court room demeanor and direct approach with the other side made me feel like I had the best attorney possible for my case. I was routinely impressed by his natural ability to out lawyer and protect me from the other sides attorneys, who had more experience in the court room than he did at that time. Matt truly excels at thinking on his feet and found every possible way to win our case. Lastly, Matt has an inherently good work ethic. Our opposing council was one of the most well known and largest employment law firms in all of Chicago. Their firm ultimately had to bring on a second attorney just to keep up with Matts work ethic and dedication in my case. I trusted him with the livelihood of my family and would do it again without hesitation if necessary. I believe that his formal writing skills are one of the very best qualities he has to offer a client. If my family is ever in need of representation again in future, Matt will still be my very first call.
