Overview

Matt is known for his competitive drive, creative problem-solving, and commitment to achieving the best possible outcomes for his clients. His early experiences working alongside federal prosecutors taught him how careful preparation, sound judgment, and effective advocacy can shape outcomes that matter to clients, institutions, and communities.

Before attending law school, Matt served as a paralegal specialist at the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of New York. There, he supported trial teams on high-profile prosecutions—including a four-week terrorism trial—and handled cases involving international narcotics and money laundering, business and securities fraud, and national security. This experience equipped him with the ability to manage large volumes of evidence, communicate effectively across teams, and maintain composure under pressure.

During law school, Matt further developed his litigation skills as a student prosecutor in the Charlottesville Commonwealth’s Attorney’s Office. He also served on the editorial board of the Virginia Journal of Criminal Law and was recognized as a top advocate at multiple mock trial competitions. As a summer associate at Benesch, Matt worked on criminal, defamation, and antitrust matters, and contributed to drafting a defendant-appellee’s response brief in a federal appeal.

Today, Matt handles a range of commercial litigation and white-collar matters. He also maintains an active pro bono practice.
