I practiced with him for nearly a quarter century and he taught me a great deal. I enjoyed listening to my parents discuss their day over the dinner table. Tom and I were always mesmerized by that. I strive to practice law in his footsteps. I like being able to connect with people and understand their conflicts. I enjoy thinking of ways to find an expeditious solution as people like to have resolution in their lives.” Matt has decades of experience representing businesses in complicated Chapter 11 bankruptcies, including the new Sub-Chapter V of Chapter 11 for small businesses with debts of less than $7.5 million. In addition, Matt is skilled at representing creditors who are inadvertently caught up in other people’s bankruptcies. He works tirelessly to achieve the best outcome possible for every client.
