Matthew T. McGowan 


Matt is an attorney representing individuals who have been seriously injured. He brings over a decade of experience and a client-first, results-driven approach to every case.

One of the things that sets Matt apart is his commitment to helping clients with all aspects of a motor vehicle accident, not just the injury claim. From the moment a case comes in, he works closely with clients to assist with property damage, rental car arrangements, towing disputes, and loss-of-use claims. While many law firms leave clients to navigate these problems on their own, Matt sees them as an essential part of the recovery process.

He knows how to assess the value of a case, when to negotiate a settlement, and when to pursue litigation. He treats every client with respect, offering clear, honest guidance at every stage of the case. Clients have his personal cell phone number and he always calls them back within 24-hours. When he takes a case, you are dealing with him and you will not be passed off to an associate.


Matt is selective about the cases he takes, ensuring that each client receives the time, attention, and advocacy they deserve. If he takes your case, it is because he believes in it, and he is committed to achieving the best possible result.
