Experience. Expertise. Individual Care.

Hello. Thank you for your interest in Menzer Law. We're a top-rated law firm in Washington providing dedicated legal representation to those who have suffered from medical malpractice or a serious personal injury.

Since 2002, I've grown my firm on a simple yet powerful belief: Deep legal experience and expertise produce the best possible results when paired with individual quality care.

Dedicated Teamwork Approach

To that end, I deliberately designed Menzer Law to give our clients the full attention of a team of experienced, knowledgeable, and assertive attorneys. That means when you partner with us, you will work directly with me and my colleagues, JohnDavid Toren and Brady Douglas.

Our teamwork approach is built on a solid foundation of

  • Deep-rooted legal knowledge and experience
  • The highest ethical standards
  • An empathic understanding of each client's individual situation
  • Our personal desire to maximize every client's recovery and financial compensation

And most of all, authentic client service. By limiting our caseload and focusing exclusively on medical malpractice and serious personal injury litigation, we can dedicate the time necessary to personally see your case through to a successful conclusion.

A Powerful Voice for the Seriously Injured

Our overriding goal - to be a powerful voice for the seriously injured - is at the heart of everything we do. I began bringing this to life after graduating from Brown University in 1981 and the UC Berkeley School of Law in 1987.

I first honed my legal skills by serving as a Judicial Law Clerk for Federal judges in New York and Hawaii. After that, I worked for litigation law firms in both Hawaii and Washington state for 12 years. I opened my own firm in Seattle in 2002, which I expanded with a second office in Maui in 2019.

Award-Winning Representation

Over the years, my practice has earned the highest peer review rankings in the country and - more importantly - the trust and respect of hundreds of clients from Seattle to Spokane, Tacoma to the Tri-Cities, and dozens of cities and towns in between. I am honored to be one of only a few attorneys in the U.S. to have Super Lawyers status in two states (WA and Hawaii), and I am proud that JohnDavid and Brady are included in the Super Lawyers exclusive list of Rising Stars.

Additionally, my experience and achievements have earned Martindale-Hubbell's highest AV Preeminent® ranking since 2004, which is awarded to only about 10 percent of all attorneys. Other achievements include a 10/10 "Superb" Rating from Avvo and memberships in the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates and the International Society of Primerus Law Firms.

Complimentary Case Review

I realize the process of evaluating attorneys is highly personal and can appear to be daunting at times. If our background, success rate, and team approach appeal to you, please contact us and we will review your claim free of charge. If we can take on your case, Menzer Law will go above and beyond to protect your rights and secure the compensation that you deserve.

Rest assured, you will not pay any upfront attorney fees while we work on your behalf - my firm only receives payment after we successfully resolve your case. In the meantime, Menzer Law will cover the costs associated with your claim.

If your case is outside our practice area or we are not able pursue it, we will try to suggest a referral. When doing so, please note that we do not ask for, or receive, a referral fee from those we recommend.

Matt and the team at Menzer Law Firm cannot be recommended highly enough. I never expected to find myself in a situation where I would need to find a lawyer, especially as a physician myself seeking legal counsel for review of a malpractice concern regarding the care my wife received during the birth of our daughter. To this end, I had no idea where to start and felt completely out of my element, until I met Matt Menzer and we reviewed the case. Matt was incredibly caring, respectful and professional. We discussed the case and he reviewed the documents that I had collected. During our meetings, it was clear that he was listening and had truly taken the time to understand the details. Never did we feel rushed or dismissed. We felt heard and taken care of like I imagine my patients want to be heard and taken care of. Ultimately, while no one wants to go through this experience, we feel incredibly lucky to have found Matt and the Menzer Law Firm. It is in the rough times that the great people show themselves. Thank you Matt!!

Matt and his team helped me negotiate a very tricky contract dispute. You don't want to need a lawyer. Read documents carefully and don't sign them if you don't really agree to everything to the most nit-picky level and don't assume a state law will protect you. But, if you do get into a situation where you are stuck and need legal help or advice, reach out to Matt and his team. I'd recommend them to anyone in the greater Seattle area including all of my friends and family. They will be fair, understanding and helpful and make any legal process and painless as possible.

From the first meeting, I felt I was being heard, really heard. My frustration, anger, over whelming sadness was understood. I didn?t feel hurried. I could seriously breath. I had seen much paperwork? and just lifting it & handing it over was such a load off my shoulders. I felt validated. Even tho I couldn?t be sure of a good ending, I was in good hands.

?I had the privilege of working with Lawyer Matthew Menzer at Menzer Law when I found myself unjustly accused of something I did not do. From the start, Matthew provided me with exceptional legal support. He was not only highly responsive but also took the time to provide detailed and personal attention to my case. In a situation that was both stressful and emotionally challenging, Matthew and his team at Menzer Law proved to be a beacon of support. They handled my case with utmost professionalism and timeliness, ultimately reaching an amicable resolution with the opposing party. I must also commend the office staff at Menzer Law for their sympathetic and understanding demeanor throughout the process. Their empathy added to the overall positive experience. I wholeheartedly recommend the Menzer Law Firm to anyone in need of honest advice and legal assistance. If you?re looking for the best, trust Menzer Law?they truly excel in providing top-notch legal support.?

Matt Menzer and his associates were instrumental on providing us with the justice and settlement we needed for our 5 year old daughter that was severely burned due to the negligence of a restaurant chain. She was able to get the treatments she needed and was compensated for her traumatic event thanks to the Menzer Law firm.

Both Matt Menzer and JohnDavid Toren are very professional, easy to communicate with and settled with my auto insurance company very quickly. They gave me clear directions and deadlines to get documents and records to them, and if I had a question, they got back to immediately.

Mr. Menzer and team reviewed my medical records for a potential malpractice claim. Although I was ultimately unable to file a lawsuit, I felt they were kind and thorough, and very good listeners. He and his staff were personable and responsive, never chilly. I am glad I contacted them, even though it did not work out as I had hoped. Now I can move forward knowing I did everything I could to help my situation. I would recommend talking to them; it definitely does not hurt to try.

I asked Menzer Law to represent me in a dog attack insurance claim. I don't think it's the type of work they normally take on; still, they treated me as if it was the most important case they had. They were empathetic, responsive, and diligent. Honestly, I was glad not to have to deal with the insurance company and wasn't as interested in what the final settlement would be. Nevertheless, Menzer Law strongly advocated for me and they were so good that the insurance settled for our first request! These are amazing people with good hearts. I highly recommend them!

It was such a pleasure working with Matt Menzer and his staff! They were hard working, efficient and guided our family every step of the way. We couldn?t be happier with the outcome. I would definitely use him again if need be and would highly recommend him to others seeking his services. Thank you so much for all you did for our family!

Attorney Matt Menzer saved the day for me in the time of my greatest need for legal advice. Right away he intervened and his timely action made all the difference. He listens, he responds and he takes immediate and appropriate action. Then he explains what he did in language you can understand and patiently answers all your questions. Thank you, Matt. I can't thank you enough for all your help..

While seemingly kind and responsive, this law firm drug its feet on our potential nursing home / assisted living neglect case for almost a year and a half. Even communicated several times that the attorneys agreed to file a claim against the facilities insurance. More delays. Then, all the sudden they decided there wasn't a strong enough case to take to trial. Um, nobody mentioned wanting to go to trial. What really happened, is they got another case that must have been more attractive (I read the news release, good luck on that one). Now we are outside the statute of limitations. Oh well, we weren't seeking money necessarily (even though it all has cost a lot of suffering and a lot of money), only justice and accountability. Too bad this country doesn't seem to want to hold facilities accountable for the immense suffering they cause. I don't doubt this is a decent firm, too bad they didn't really treat us with the respect expected.
