A Steadfast Advocate
For Injury Victims In Austin
And Central Texas
Matt Breeland is a personal injury attorney focused on providing compassionate support for those who have been hurt because of someone else’s carelessness.
Ready To Fight
For The Compensation
You Deserve
You may have had no prior experience with lawyers or the legal system but now suddenly find yourself the victim of an accident because of someone else’s carelessness. Matt Breeland knows that this is often a confusing and traumatic time, and he works with his clients so that they understand what to expect throughout the process.
Accidents don’t just happen. They are caused by someone who decided – even for a moment – not to follow one or more basic rules of the road. Distracted driving is an epidemic, and the largest culprit is cellphone use and texting (including emailing). “Driving while distracted” is the new driving while intoxicated and is just as dangerous. Matt holds insurance companies accountable for the harms caused by distracted drivers. And, when necessary, Matt will take his clients’ cases before juries and seek verdicts that reflect the conscience of the community.
A Lawyer Who Knows Both Sides Of Personal Injury
After spending the first part of his career defending personal injury cases, Matt knows how the other side works. In that role, he gained a unique and highly valuable perspective on the litigation tactics employed by insurance companies against those who fall victim to another person’s carelessness.
In 2016, Matt felt a calling to switch sides and begin representing Texas injury victims. Since then, he has worked exclusively as counsel to accident victims. Assisting Matt is his pugnacious partner Jerome, a rescue pug who was left on the side of the road and now lives like a king.
Meet Attorney
Matt Breeland
As a personal injury trial attorney, Matt has been named in Texas Monthly Magazine’s list of Super Lawyers Rising Stars every year since 2017. Only 2.5% of lawyers age 40 or under receive this prestigious recognition, which is based on a multiphase selection process that includes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations.
In 2019, he obtained one of the top 100 jury verdicts in the state of Texas as lead trial counsel. That verdict was also in the top 50 in Texas for cases involving motor vehicles.
Outside of work, Matt is married to Austin real estate agent Leslie Breeland, who is also an attorney. They met in law school and now have two young children, a boy and a girl, and a pug named Jerome.
