For instance, in 2021, Matt, along with Lindsay Lawrence, stepped into a case just two weeks before trial and secured an $825,000 jury verdict in Warren County, Ohio, for a woman who had suffered an ankle fracture. Despite the defense disputing liability and causation, the top offer before Matt\s involvement was only $90,000. In another notable case in 2019, Matt and Charlie Rittgers obtained a $3,000,000 jury verdict in Hamilton County, Ohio, for a 71-year-old woman who had sustained a fractured knee cap. The initial offer before trial was a mere $25,000, but Matt\s strategic approach and dedication to his client led to a significantly higher outcome.

In 2018, Matt faced a top offer of $20,000 from a large insurance company for a shoulder tear injury case. Despite the low offer, Matt, his co-counsel, and his client chose to go to trial. The jury verdict of $1,028,317 was one of the largest in the history of Campbell County, Kentucky, for a non-death case. Following the successful trial, Matt, along with Kyle Salyer, pursued a bad faith action against the company, further demonstrating his commitment to seeking justice for his clients.
