Matthew’s passion for justice led him to embark on a remarkable journey as a lawyer, driven by his unwavering commitment to fighting for his clients. Initially pursuing studies in Criminal Justice at Sam Houston State University, Matthew’s aspiration to join the FBI underwent a profound transformation when he recognized the inherent biases that perpetuate an unjust system, particularly for the accused. Determined to champion the cause of the disparaged, he set his sights on becoming a Criminal Defense Attorney.
Continuing his educational pursuit, Matthew relocated to Houston after graduating from Sam Houston State University, where he enrolled at South Texas College of Law. Immersing himself in the realm of Criminal Law Advocacy, he honed his skills and deepened his understanding of the legal intricacies. During his time in law school, Matthew seized the opportunity to intern with the esteemed Harris County District Attorney’s Office, gaining invaluable insights and practical experience.
Upon earning his law degree, Matthew embarked on an inspiring professional path, joining forces with the distinguished Bill Habern. Focusing his expertise on parole and prison law, Matthew devoted himself to giving a voice to the often-overlooked and marginalized individuals within the confines of the prison system. Collaborating with Bill Habern, he dedicated his efforts to navigating the complexities of this challenging field, tirelessly advocating for the rights and dignity of those that society had forgotten.
Eager to return to the courtroom and further expand his legal prowess, Matthew made the pivotal decision to part ways with the Habern Law firm. Seeking guidance and mentorship from the esteemed George Parnham, Matthew embarked on a transformative chapter in his career. Under George’s tutelage, Matthew fine-tuned his advocacy skills, showcasing his exceptional talent and achieving a remarkable track record of acquittals and dismissals across a wide spectrum of cases, ranging from minor offenses like possession of marijuana to complex matters such as murder trials.
After spending several fruitful years under George’s mentorship, Matthew’s exceptional reputation caught the attention of the Dunham and Jones law firm. Recognizing his extraordinary abilities, they handpicked him to serve as a managing attorney, entrusting him with running their El Paso Office.
Matthew’s unwavering dedication and remarkable track record of success have cemented his reputation as an exceptional advocate for his clients.
