Attorney Matthew Lott began his career as a defense lawyer for large corporations, and even sometimes cities, facing defective products, unsafe premises, and other personal injury cases from individuals. Along the way, Matthew Lott decided that people and their families are what truly matter to him, so he opened his own law firm to help those in the Gulf Coast area with their family and personal injury cases. This is his way to give back and better his community.
