FNRA case

Matt did a great job pursuing a stock brokerage company that misrepresented an investment, lost money for about 75 investors in this deal and then declared bankruptcy. The case went to FNRA arbitration where he represented us and won. Then the company's insurer refused to pay the claim which requi...red another law suit, which we also won. Matt did a great job keeping us informed every step of the way. He acted very professionally and took extra steps to do what was required to win this case.

Works Hard for His Clients

Matt took on our difficult case when our large group thought we were going to get nothing. After a long arbitration, we all ended up getting about one-third of our investments back, instead of nothing. Matt worked very hard for us, as if it was his own money he was after. I know his firm did not r...eally come out as well as it normally would,but Matt spent the time and effort it took to maximize our award.

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.
