“When my husband and I finally got around to estate planning, we could not have found a better legal resource to guide us through the process. Matt was very knowledgeable and presented us with information and guidance to help us make the decisions that resulted in setting up a trust that met our current and future needs. I am confident that we have a plan that will take care of us, as well as our children, now and in the future.” - Client Review. Matthew focuses his practice primarily in the areas of Estate Planning, Probate Administration, and Elder Law. After graduating from the Eli Broad College of Business and Detroit Mercy School of Law, Matthew opened his own practice. In 2017, he joined up with attorneys Sherman Abdo and Fran-Marie Silveri to offer his clients a wider array of legal services.. As many of us who are fortunate enough to have grandparents live a long and prosperous life, Matthew saw some of the challenges his grandparents faced as they began to age. These moments helped mold him into the attorney he strives to be for his clients who are either planning for life events at an early age or going through challenges at a later stage in life. In the fields of Estate Planning and Elder Law, Matthew works incessantly with his clients, ensuring that they plan for their long-term care needs and address how they want their estate to be administered when they pass. Matthew believes each client has their own unique set of circumstances and family dynamics. He also understands that every client wants to ease the burdens that their incapacity or deaths may put on their families. Matthew identifies issues and provides his clients with confidence and peace of mind.

Practice Areas: Adoption

I have practiced adoption law in Michigan for over 10 years after a long career in maternal child health nursing. During my law practice, I have done all types of adoptions allowed under Michigan law – direct placement adoptions, step-parent adoptions, guardianship adoptions, relative adoptions as well as adult adoptions.. My career as an adoption attorney — and my commitment to families and children — has always been informed by my work in mother-baby nursing. I have both a bachelor's degree in nursing (BSN) from the University of Detroit, Mercy and a Master of Science (MS) degree in Maternal-Child Health from Boston College. I had a long career in nursing which included direct care of mothers and babies in labor and delivery, on the mother-baby unit, as well in the areas of prenatal care and public health. During much of my nursing career, I served as a state nurse consultant working to improve the care to mothers and children throughout the state. One of my proudest accomplishments was to help develop the practice of nurse-midwifery in Michigan.. I believe in knowing my clients and their wishes. I attempt to be available to answer questions and address concerns when I receive calls from them.. It is my plan to be present at the hospital to assist with the temporary placement of the infant for my client, whether birth mother or prospective adoptive parents. One of our famous Michigan snowstorms may prevent me from achieving that goal, but I always plan to be there unless we have made other arrangements.. Education and Licenses
