About
The Outlawyer

Matt Abbott, “The Outlawyer,” proudly represents the legal needs of those with personal injury and wrongful death claims. He focuses on the litigation areas of tractor-trailer accidents, automobile accidents, motorcycle accidents, defective product liability, and medical/pharmaceutical negligence. He also serves clients who have been victims of consumer fraud and insurance bad faith. In short, Matt is a trial lawyer who makes insurance companies pay full value on claims they don’t want to. He and his legal team strive to make sure his clients are informed, educated, and up to speed on their cases, so they have all the information needed to make informed decisions. His goal is to ensure they feel as comfortable as they can throughout the litigation process. 

Matt grew up in Pell City, Alabama, graduated from Grissom High School in Huntsville, drove a forklift and played in rock bands in Decatur before moving to Auburn to complete his bachelor’s degree in 1997.  In 2000, Matt graduated from the Cumberland School of Law at Samford University as Class President, then admitted to the State Bars of Alabama, Georgia and Mississippi where he is recognized to practice in all state and federal courts.  Matt began his practice with a large Birmingham personal injury law firm in 2000. He went on to work at a smaller firm in Pell City, St. Clair County, Alabama, eventually opening his own personal injury law firm in 2007. Since that time, Matt has represented clients all over the state based out of his office in Birmingham, now expanding with a second office in Huntsville to serve the needs of the Tennessee Valley.
