About Matt Bryant

After nearly 20 years of protecting insiders, I started my own practice for the little guy. Employee, labor, individual, and civil rights. Commercial and personal lines policy-holder and bad-faith claims. Professional employment, legal discipline, and malpractice.

I've handled tough cases as both plaintiffs' and defense counsel across the country. I've represented everyone from other attorneys, doctors, nurses, entry-level employees to C-suiters, small family-owned businesses to Fortune 500 companies, and Big Insurance. Now, I help those who need it. Call me if you need a lawyer and have nowhere else to turn.

Hired Attorney Matt Bryant

I found Matt Bryant on Avvo when I needed an attorney for my unemployment case. He successfully fought for my right for unemployment benefits and proved to the administrative Judge that I committed no misconduct at work. Additionally, he sued my former employer for age/disability discrimination and I reccompensation. Matt listened to all my concerns and provided sound legal advice. I would highly recommend Matt Bryant to anyone in need of a competent and compassionate attorney.

Hired Attorney Matt Bryant

Matthew Bryant represented me twice in the last several years and has earned my trust and gratitude for his skills and determination to do his utmost for his clients. I was stunned to be named in a frivolous lawsuit meant to harass and avoid payment. Matthew consistently offered excellent advice while guiding me through the complexities of the process until the case was ultimately dismissed. He made himself available and patiently reassured me about the likely outcome. Matthew also represented me in a contractual matter. Due to the crisis in New York, and in my industry, I recently had to terminate my office lease. Matthew negotiated the agreement in a manner that was advantageous to me and respectful to both parties.

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews
