Our story is one of determination, hard work, and a commitment to excellence. Founded in 2010 by Matt Abbott, our firm began as a small practice with a passion for justice and a desire to make a difference in the lives of our clients.
Our journey is one of humble beginnings to where we are today.
I started this law firm founded on hard working American values. I strive to be the lawyer that cuts the BS, calls it like I see it and does what I say I’m going to do. All this while remaining genuine, honest and straightforward. Right is right and wrong is wrong. Sometimes that ruffles feathers. Sometimes it takes an outlaw to get justice. Sometimes it takes an Outlawyer.
I will earn your trust by “shooting you straight” and filtering all the legal speak and fluff. I call it like I see it.
Fair and honest lawyers do exist, and I’ll prove to I am one of them.
2025 marks my 25th year practicing personal injury law. I’ve never worked for an insurance company.
Many awards and accomplishments have been given, but performance and results speak the loudest.

He focuses on the litigation areas of tractor-trailer accidents, automobile accidents, motorcycle accidents, premises liability and defective product liability. Matt is a trial lawyer who makes insurance companies pay full value on claims they don’t want to.
