As founder of Menzer Law Group, he is known for his strategic advocacy, deep legal expertise, and unwavering commitment to client care.
A graduate of Brown University and UC Berkeley School of Law, Matt refined his legal skills through two federal judicial clerkships before launching a distinguished career in litigation.
