Shortly after graduation, Bruntrager joined the St. Louis Circuit Attorney's Office, which prosecutes state-level crimes in the city of St. Louis..

What sets me apart professionally from other attorneys is the personalized service, the attention to detail and zealous advocacy I offer. The only product that an attorney has to sell are his/her words, writings, opinions, honesty, integrity, quality of his/her handling of a case and steadfast advocacy. I know how a Client wishes to be treated because, prior to attending law school in 2010, I was a Paralegal for 25+years with some of St. Louis' most prestigious personal injury, medical negligence, class action and consumer fraud firms.  I treat my clients with respect and dignity and hold their claims in the highest regard. I am extremely organized, efficient and thorough. I have seen the work of many attorneys in the last thirty years - there can be an extreme difference in quality of work from attorney to attorney. Generally, I answer my own phone becasue I know Clients want to speak with their lawyer and I am happy to get to know them. I keep expenses down and ensure attention to detail by performing work myself instead of assigning/hiring out to third-party vendors and do not charge hidden fees. My goal that the victim's compensation outweighs expenses and fees.  A client should not be left to wonder if the attorney addressed every issue, turned over every stone and whether the facts, medical was thoroughly vetted and there should be nothing for the client left to guess when their case is concluded. A Client should feel as if they were part of a team effort where both they and their attorney were well-informed throughout the handling of their case.  My practice is based on referrals from satisfied Clients and other Firms - referrals are the best compliment.   I am confident that my clients would agree that I hold them in high regard and the manner in which I practice law is exceptional.   I give all I have to my Clients, my practice, my family and my community, which is extremely rewarding in and of itself.

Review:  "If you are reading online reviews for a family law attorney you are likely seeking a divorce attorney. That is probably not a happy situation for you and finding a "good attorney" is your priority. I found Matt and his team in 2016 and readily hired him after my initial consultation.. Matt breaks any negative stereotypes regarding attorneys. He and his team transcend being "nice" and are KIND. I was immediately comfortable with him and his team and I quickly learned he was the best attorney I could have found. He and his team have an uncanny attention for details and his thorough work discovered information which would have been left uncovered had he not done his job so well...". How do you get started?.

I have devoted my legal career to practicing solely family law. Through this focus on family law, I have developed a history of successfully litigating divorce, paternity and custody matters through trial.. After graduating in 2006 from St. Louis University School of Law, I joined as an associate in an established family law practice in Clayton. I departed that firm as a named partner in 2013, to form Voorhees Family Law, LLC.. I believe the best outcome is often one where parties work together to reach a fair and amicable resolution. In some cases, this is done at the kitchen table. In others, a mediator can be helpful. In addition to keeping costs down, when parties are able to reach a fair settlement, they are more likely to extend a healthier co-parenting relationship beyond the divorce judgment. In such cases, my role is to advise as to the fairness of the agreement and to draft the documents necessary to effect the desired outcome.. Some cases can only be resolved in court. Whether parties have few assets and no children, or a multimillion dollar estate with complicated custody, maintenance and business valuation issues, it is important to fully understand the exact nature of all assets, debts, incomes and custody and support issues. With this full understanding, the facts can be presented to the court in a manner that allows for the best possible outcome.. I speak on a variety of family law issues and divorce. I have served as a Committee Co-Chair for the Bar Association of Metropolitan St. Louis, as a member of the Mayor’s Vanguard Cabinet and as a volunteer mediator for M.A.R.C.H. Mediation. I am a member of the Missouri Bar Association.. In 2019 through 2021, I was honored to be recognized as a Missouri “Super Lawyer” in the area of Family Law.  In 2015 and 2016, I was named a “Rising Star” attorney by Super Lawyers. In 2010, I was named an “Up & Coming Lawyer” by Missouri Lawyer’s Weekly.

Preparation.  Dedication.  Hard work.  I have built my career on these three principles.  I firmly believe a lapse in any one of these departments results in a disservice to my client.  I prepare each of my cases as if it is my most important case, because the simple truth is that your case is the most important case in your life.  I treat your case as if it were my own.  If you are or a loved one has been injured or killed as a result of another's negligence, we will represent you with pride.. While in law school, I received a Concentration in Litigation.  Since then, I have been fortunate enough to take the skills I learned in school and translate them to the courtroom.  Although not all cases end up going to trial, I have my eye set on taking the case to a judge and jury from day one.  I am confident in the courtroom and comfortable trying a case.  In my experience, this trait not only helps to win at trial, but also results in larger settlements for my clients.  There are many attorneys out there, but they are not all litigators.  I am a litigator.. I am not an attorney who is comfortable doing the bare minimum to get an "okay" result for my client.  Each person I represent deserves my full attention.  You are trusting me, and I pride myself on earning that trust.  I am dedicated to conducting a thorough investigation in to your case and fighting for justice.. At the law firm of Holland Injury Law, you will find yourself surrounded by a team ready and willing to fight for you.
