About

After spending almost a decade defending large companies and government agencies, I opened my own firm in 2016 with two partners so we could help individuals like you obtain justice and fair compensation.  I am a trial attorney focused 100% on litigating personal injury, product liability and employment claims. While in law school, I served as Lead Articles Editor of the Whittier Law Review and member of the Moot Court Honors Board. I also received the CALI Excellence Award in both Trade Secrets Law and Remedies, was named to the Dean’s List and Honor Roll and was awarded the Dean’s Merit Scholarship.  For the last three years, I have been named to the Super Lawyers Magazine Rising Stars list.   In my last year of law school, I was honored to serve as a judicial extern for the Honorable Andrew J. Guilford, United States District Court Judge for the Central District of California, which included a chance to work in chambers with former Chief Judge Alex Kozinski on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in Seattle, WA.   Prior to law school, I received a Master’s Degree in Public Health from the University of Arizona, which trained me in numerous health related disciplines, including epidemiology and environmental health.  My thesis work was completed through a graduate internship with the Orange County Health Care Agency’s Epidemiology Division.  In college, I was a varsity member of the track & field team and was honored with the Golden Eagle Scholar-Athlete Award.

I was in a motorcycle accident and had another attorney initially handle my claim for a long time and literally got nowhere. I decided to hire Matt who encouraged me to file a lawsuit although I was hesitant to do so. Matt knew how to handle the insurance company since he used to work with insurance carriers. He got me a quick settlement within a couple of months, which is quick if you know how the California legal system is. Matt is an intelligent attorney who knows what he is doing.

Matthew is amazing. He's so kind and knowledgeable. He definitely went above and beyond in handling my case. His communication was thorough and he always took time to make sure I understood what was happening. He also stood up for me in such an amazing way, making sure that I received the outcome that I deserved. The rest of the team were amazing also! Would definitely hire again. Thank you Matthew!

Mr. Dickson kept me informed and consulted during each step, which resulted in a good resolution and settlement. I would absolutely hire Mr. Dickson again to handle any personal injury case, or any other required legal consultation.

Matthew Dickson and I have worked together on several occasions on behalf of my organization. He has worked with us to update our client contract, and he provides our organization with ongoing legal advice when needed. He has proven to be a person of integrity who is prompt when returning phone calls, professional, and knowledgeable. I recommend him, without hesitation.
