He is listed among the top 100 lawyers in Georgia in Atlanta Magazine and among the Legal Elite in Georgia in Georgia Trend magazine. Over the last several years, Matt has secured defense verdicts in many wrongful death and serious injury cases.

His last seven defense verdicts were in cases wherein each plaintiff attorney asked for either a seven or eight figure jury award. Matt is a past president of the Georgia Defense Lawyers Association, and a current faculty member of the GDLA Trial Academy. He also serves as the state representative (Georgia) for the Defense Research Institute. Over the last ten years, Matt has been the keynote speaker at the annual meetings of many legal organizations.

He also is a current board member for Action Ministries, an organization that mobilizes communities to address the challenges of poverty by focusing on hunger relief, housing and education. Married to his high school sweetheart for over 32 years, Matt and Diane have two daughters attending UTC and UGA. The family are longtime members of Peachtree Road United Methodist Church, where Matt has chaired the Administrative Board and now teaches in the adult education program.
