He has represented clients in the technology, life sciences, health care, hospitality, construction, retail, and financial services industries in matters involving antitrust, patents, trade secrets, copyright, employment, contracts, real property, administrative law, and false claims. In addition to having significant experience in California courts, Matt has argued appeals and dispositive motions in state and federal courts across the nation, including the Ninth Circuit, Federal Circuit, and D.C. Circuit.
