He serves as vice chair of the Philadelphia Bar Association’s Criminal Justice section, is an active member of three bar associations, and volunteers regularly for Philadelphia VIP, which provides pro bono assistance to indigent clients. In addition to his prior role with the Defender Association, Matt’s background includes commercial litigation and labor and employment law for two Philadelphia area firms.
