Attorney Matth​ew Taibl is licensed in the State of Massachusetts and graduated from the University of Massachusetts School of Law - Dartmouth. He has worked as a Special Assistant District Attorney for the Worcester District Attorney's office where he second chaired several jury trials and evidentiary motions. Also, having previously worked as a​​​​ Property and Casualty Claims Insurance Adjuster, Attorney Taibl learned how to communicate effectively as the middle man between the insured and the insurance companies.​

Not only has Attorney Taibl been a victim of four automobile accidents himself, but he's also lost three family members and almost lost his mother, all to car accidents. He watched his mother suffer in and out of the hospital after a drunk driver left her with broken ribs, a ruptured spleen and emotional trauma. For this, Attorney Taibl has a strong compassion for people that have been victimized due to someone else's negligence and will fight hard to get them justice.
