Matthew C. Porter

A significant portion of Matthew’s practice involves representing and advising insurance carriers in coverage and claims-related matters. He works with insurers to assess potential exposure, develop litigation strategy, and identify practical paths toward resolution. His experience includes both first- and third-party claims, including disputes involving insurance coverage, claims handling, and allegations of statutory and common-law bad faith.

Matthew also represents clients in securities matters and commercial disputes, including matters involving contractual rights and obligations, construction-related claims, and other complex civil litigation. He approaches these matters with an emphasis on developing the factual record early, identifying dispositive legal issues, and tailoring litigation strategy to the client’s broader business objectives. His combined litigation and transactional experience allows him to evaluate disputes in the context of the underlying business relationship and develop strategies that account for both legal and practical considerations.
