Matthew J. Fogelman

Firm: Fogelman Law LLC
189 Wells Avenue , Newton , Massachusetts 02459
Practice Areas: Business , Civil , Employment & Labor , Products Liability, Personal Injury, Personal Injury, Personal Injury, Personal Injury, Personal Injury, Personal Injury, Personal Injury, Personal Injury, Employment & Labor, Discrimination, Sexual Harassment, Wrongful Termination, Car Accidents, Slip and Fall Accident
Matthew J. Fogelman is a founding partner of Fogelman & Fogelman LLC. Mr. Fogelman’s trial and litigation practice is focused on employment law, personal injury cases, and consumer class actions. He is an experienced trial lawyer, having won a number of significant cases on behalf of clients, including prevailing before the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court in a ground-breaking handicap discrimination case involving an employee’s right to use medical marijuana off-site.. In the employment arena, Mr. Fogelman has litigated cases ranging from Wage Act and overtime cases to discrimination, sexual harassment, and retaliation matters. He has significant experience advising employees on non-compete and severance agreements. A former newspaper reporter, Mr. Fogelman also has experience in First Amendment and defamation and libel law, and has counseled clients concerning defamatory material published on the Internet.. In the personal injury realm, Mr. Fogelman has extensive experience litigating complex personal injury cases and emotionally-charged cases, including allegations of sexual abuse and wrongful death.. Mr. Fogelman’s class action practice is focused on helping groups of employees and consumers recover damages in cases in which individually their matters would not be large enough to be cost-efficient. He and the firm have prevailed in several class-action matters, including a significant wage and hour case involving illegal distribution of tips and cases involving tenants who have been the subject of systematic illegal charges of amenity and other fees by landlords and large management companies.. Lawyers often talk about standing up for the little guy, and sometimes this sounds trite.  But in my case, and for our firm, it is true – this is why we practice law. Corporations sometimes act as if there are no consequences for treating workers illegally, including discriminating against employees and systematically cheating them out of the wages to which they are due.  They count on employees being afraid to confront wrongful conduct, or that wage underpayment will be not be enough to justify hiring an attorney. Similarly, in injury cases, insurance companies often believe they can use their size and teams of lawyers to avoid paying what their insureds owe for causing crashes, injuries, and even death.

I believe that it is imperative for an attorney to educate each client regarding the law; possible outcomes of a legal matter; potential cost of the legal matter; and the pros and cons of litigation (including going to trial or settling the matter).  Depending upon the client's desires and issues at hand, some legal matters require sheer aggressiveness, while others require more finesse and creativity.. Many attorneys forget that we are in a service oriented profession, where clients are our customers.  At Bennett & Belfort, P.C., we strive to maintain long-term relationships with our clients, by providing the highest quality legal representation, irrespective of the size of the client or the legal matter at hand..
