What Matt loves about his job as a litigator is that no two cases are the same. He takes a concise and commercial approach to dispute resolution and takes pride in being a decisive yet supportive legal counsel for his clients. Melbourne-born but Sydney-based, Matt continues to support Carlton from the sunny eastern beaches, negroni in hand and Shadow (his black labrador) by his side.
