Matt went above and beyond in his tireless advocacy on my behalf. He was initially appointed as limited-purpose counsel pro bono, but after fulfilling his responsibilities in that role, he continued to stand by me and saw my case through to the very end. His kind, generous, and dedicated representation ensured that justice was done. I truly could not have prevailed without him. Matt was always responsive, whether by email or phone, and consistently made himself available when I needed guidance. Mr. Taggert is a man of outstanding character and deep compassion. He has been an incredible blessing, and I am profoundly grateful for everything he has done for me.

I had the opportunity to work with Matt Taggert on a case and found him to be among the best litigators I have ever worked with. He provides a very strong defense for employers, has excellent deposition skills, an impressive recall of facts and the law, and shows respect for his clients. He is very responsive and delivers a high degree of service. We were very pleased with the outcome of the case he defended. I highly recommend him.
