A Moffly Media Top Lawyer in Fairfield County in the area of Business Law in 2023, Matt currently serves on the board of the Milford Regional Chamber of Commerce and previously served as treasurer for Judge Ben Gettinger when he ran for Milford-Orange Probate Judge and on the Milford Connecticut Pension and Retirement Board.
