Matthew D. Newman, Esq.
Matthew D. Newman’s practice focuses on personal injury claims of all kinds. He takes great satisfaction in resolving personal injury cases in ways that exceed client expectations, regardless of whether the outcome is financial compensation or the fulfillment of some other personal desire.
Newman understands that many clients feel anxiety about the legal process. He educates clients about their legal rights and the complexities of the judicial system. Throughout the course of representation, Newman works diligently to ensure that his clients are treated fairly by insurance companies and that they have a full opportunity to obtain justice in court.
Among his career highlights, Newman helped secure a $4 million settlement for Charla Nash, a woman who sustained horrific injuries during a 2009 attack by a neighbor’s pet chimpanzee.
