Bio

As a 23 year veteran Arizona attorney, Matt Riggs focuses on litigating personal injury and medical negligence cases, but has litigated in many areas. He fights for his clients in state Superior Court, U.S. District Court, and he argues cases at the appellate level.
Matt’s legal talent lead to the creation of law in Arizona favorable for consumers (unfavorable for the insurance industry) in State Farm v. Connelly. Due to that case, insurance companies have paid Arizona consumers millions of dollars that would have otherwise filled the pockets of insurance executives and shareholders. State Farm fought against Matt and his clients all the way to the state Supreme Court. Matt prevailed.
Due to Matt's efforts, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled against the insurance industry and in favor of Matt’s client in Webb v. Gittlen. As in the Connelly case, Matt’s passion to fight the insurance industry and protect the rights of consumers lead to results benefiting not only his own client, but all of Arizona consumers.
An unconventional path brought Matt into the legal profession. During law school, Matt worked at UPS (from approximately 2:30 – 8:00 a.m. 5 days each week). After taking and passing the bar exam, Matt drove a UPS package car. Because Matt was concerned the moral and ethical climate in the legal profession, he continued driving a package car until a respected family friend told Matt that if he ran his own law firm, he could be as honest and ethical as wanted to be. That family friend also explained that the legal profession needed men like Matt who are honest and ethical. Soon thereafter, Matt started his own law firm which now has four office and many attorneys throughout the State of Arizona.
Matt began practicing law in 1995. Between then and now, he has not only served thousands of clients, but he has served God and his fellow man spending thousands of hours as a community athletic coach, a local ecclesiastical leader, then as a president of a mission in the Northern Virginia/Washington D.C. area (the latter assignment taking him away from the law practice for three years).
Matt grew up in Mesa, Arizona. He and his sweetheart raised their six children in Gilbert. He enjoys sports and spending time with his children and grandchildren.
