With over 20 years of experience, Matthew is a highly skilled negotiator and litigator dedicated to achieving the best possible results for his clients. He has a proven track record of reducing workers’ compensation liabilities, successfully defending cases involving workplace safety violations, drug-related penalties, and medical causation disputes. Matthew has also effectively argued contributory negligence on behalf of plaintiffs and third parties, while securing favorable outcomes, including zero liability findings for defendants where others struggled to mitigate risk.

Before joining Halbrook Wood, Matthew gained extensive experience working at several prominent law firms in the Kansas City Metro area. During his time at Swanson Bernard, he successfully defended National Football League teams against claims across all levels of operations. His proactive and diligent advocacy continues to build strong client relationships grounded in trust.
