Matthew Bruce Lewis

I wish I fired him.I made a big mistake.I trusted him to help out with my case.Within two weeks after being forced on wc I has a a mmi .It stated I had 8 percent impairment which means the money I received was going toward my impairment and yet I had not received any doctor treatment yet.The last hea...ring over a year later changed my impairment and the time i met mmi.SO this meant Lewis was to change the time i was under doctor care.But he didnt.SO this means at end of my case the new impairment and mmi date wasnt correct so the 7 month of income i received under doctor care was used for my mmi.So at the end of my case i received nothing.I paid over 8000 of my money for injection ,back surgery,etc.And the attorney received more money than me.AND still in pain.Dont go to patient choice either.I have video where they had all the wc patient sat in hallway for new clients.And MR.Lewis will bill wc for service he doesnt provide.He charged for a meeting of 2 hour and i never meet him before.So he was nice enough to give me credit for the time i use to confront him about the charge.So keep a eye on time called to office.You be charged for 30 mins even if it was 5 mins.Its a joke.

First,I just want to say, call Matt right now. He has an unbelievable wealth of knowledge and is always calm, cool and collective. Matt knows exactly what he is doing and usually the other side as well. The entire Work comp process is extremely confusing and can get very messy rather quickly, Matt ...handles it all in stride. I actually felt bad for needing a lawyer but when you become injured, YOUR work and THEIR insurance carrier no longer cares about you or your recovery. NOTHING matters except saving their money. Period!! Matt fights for YOU and this is obviously a passion for Mr. Lewis. His work and expansive knowledge of the work comp system and laws reflect that. Matt always kept me up to date and responded to my many, many emails promptly. He fought very hard for me and was always professional and courteous.

Initially I went to Bailey & Galyen for Worker's Comp since I didn't know where to go and they seemed reputable from an online ad. They were supposed to do a Skype interview with the location in Arlington where it was done. They had difficulties so we did a conference call. Assistant for Kim (lawye...r) spoke with us. He was very polite and acted like they could help me get my back surgery approved from incident at work back in February. They said they would contact me immediately about a doctor I could see who would take care of me and never did, only calls from several medication companies asking for me to use them which is not what I needed. I called them and receptionist in Arlington was very rude when I called and kept interrupting me and not letting explain what I needed. The person we initially spoke with never spoke with us again and Jose who was supposed to be helping me acted like I was annoying him when he finally answered the phone and said I needed to give him time and he only had the case a couple weeks ago and gave me no info at all. I told him I just wanted to update him and let him know the latest info but he just kept repeating he needed time. I called a week or two later again and again receptionist was very rude and was told he would call back and never did for a week. I called again another week later and they finally got another person to speak with me and he was polite and answered a basic question but still no return call or info on my case. Same again a week later and they said Jose wasn't there but somehow he arrived after waiting to speak with any other person and he said he had no info from my doctor. I called my doctor and asked them to call because they said they had no info. My doctor office called me back saying they told him they had already received everything they needed. My husband heard a commercial on sports radio about an attorney, so I desperately called them. They said they no longer handled Worker's Comp cases but referred me to a previous competitor who they said a lawyer would actually sit down and listen to me. I went to my appt a few weeks later to see Matt Lewis in Richardson TX from Fort Worth and it was definitely worth the drive! He was very nice and understanding and actually cares about people and understood what I was going through and told me immediately what Worker's Comp was doing to keep me from getting my surgery approved. So I'll be leaving another review for him as well since he has already contacted me a couple days later regarding a new doctor for my case and knew exactly who I was! So Matt Lewis Gets 5 stars and Bailey & Galyen 2.

I have been battleing CNA Insurance Co. of Dallas since January 2000. I was injured while at work and the W/C carrier was CNA. I made the common mistake of thinking that I could represent myself in what turned into a huge battle against a very large IIns. Co. and a nobody like me. Year after year I w...as subject to harrassment, lies, deceite and pure neglect by a company who's job it was to insure that my health and quality of life could be as close to normal as could be before my injury. They have refused to pay bills to a surgeon that saved my life literally for an emergency surgery done while I was in Oklahoma. Their excuse was, "The paper work wasn't done right" They were able to steal $22,000.00 from me in SIB's benefits because " The paperwork wasn't done right." They have approved medical treatment on me and then refused to pay for follow-up treatment to keep me from life-threatning withdrawl symptoms medical device they approved 3 weeks eariler.. I was referred to Matt by a friend who was sure that I could use Matt's experience and aggressiveness in helping me fight for what was legally and rightfully mine. Nobody and I mean NOBODY would listen to me when I asked for help. "Injured Employee Counsel", what a joke. Remember, all their paychecks are signed by the same person. When I hired Matt, that was the smartest thing I could have ever done. NOW, I have someone who can help me bare this burden. I mean that I have, at times, thought I was going to loose my mind, however the Ins. Co. would not pay for a Psychiatrist to see me. All that changed when I informed everybody that I had retained Matt. People began to listen. Somethings began going my way. I even felt alittle bit of cooperation theother day. LISTEN,If you are having problems with you're W/C Carrier, call Matt Lewis. If II don't ever see a penny from all this, it was the smartest thing I could have ever done. What a burden off my shoulders. Thank You, Matt.
