Mathew Nezhad, Esq.

As a personal injury attorney, Matthew Nezhad has dedicated his entire legal career to protecting the rights of injured victims and helping them get the maximum compensation possible for their injuries. That is why, in 2002, he founded the Oaks Law Firm. He is committed to fighting for the rights of injured victims and holding the wrongdoer(s) accountable for their negligent actions. He does this by aggressively pursuing his Clients' best interests and to obtain the best possible result for each case. Matthew established his law firm with these objectives in mind and has built a legal team of lawyers and staff who have the experience, dedication, and resources to get the job done right.

The Top Trial Lawyers in America, for having successfully obtained million and multi-million dollar results for his clients. This prestigious recognition is bestowed on only the top 1% of lawyers in the nation. He has also been selected as a "Super Lawyer" by his peers. A very select group of attorneys have this honor.

The Litigator Awards represent the highest honors in Trial Law, and justly stands as the nation's most coveted symbol of "Litigation Achievement". The Awards are based on actual "Verdict & Settlement" dollar achievement. Mr. Nezhad's firm is now part of an exclusive fraternity of Super-Star Lawyers who have won Million, Multi-Million dollar cases- a feat achieved by fewer than 1% of all lawyers. Of the nearly 1.1 million lawyers considered, only a select few (about 12 Law Firms) per State, achieve distinction of being awarded each year.

The Oaks Law Firm continues to aggressively pursue its' clients' best interests not only against insurance companies but also against large corporations and major pharmaceutical companies for their defective and dangerous products. The firm also handles Mass Torts and has represented hundreds of clients against the makers of the diet drug, Fen-Phen, and continues to represent those who have been victims of life altering prescription drugs. Currently, the firm is handling hundreds of claims and cases for residents of Porter Ranch and surrounding areas affected by the Aliso Canyon gas leak catastrophe.

Matt loves being a Personal Injury Lawyer for its challenges and because he is a natural problem solver. He is also a firm believer that in all injury cases the devil is in the detail. The ability to focus on the smallest detail, while never losing sight of the big picture, is crucial. The firm has successfully managed to balance its detailed knowledge of personal injury law and the injuries their clients sustain with the strategic planning that helps them realize and achieve their clients' goals. A distinguishing characteristic of the Oaks Law Firm is that the firm accepts a limited number of cases annually. Due to its success, the firm has been fortunate to receive referrals of cases over the years from past clients, other attorneys and law firms and has also been mentioned in the media for noteworthy and publicized cases.

Matt is a firm believer in giving back and helping, in whatever capacity possible, the less fortunate. Aside from helping within his community, he is involved and supports the Corazon de Vida orphanages and The Wounded Warrior Project, to name a few of the organizations he continues to support.
