Matt Goldberg Since Matt Goldberg first started practicing bankruptcy and debtor-creditor law, he has witnessed two of the biggest developments in bankruptcy history - the major revision to the Bankruptcy Code passed in 2005 and the onslaught of bankruptcies related to the so-called worldwide economic meltdown. "I've been fortunate to practice during a very exciting period in bankruptcy-law history," Matt says. "The range of novel and interesting issues that arise when dealing with my clients is staggering." Before Matt began practicing, he externed for the Honorable Elizabeth J. Perris, Chief Judge for the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Oregon. Matt has significant experience representing trustees, creditors and debtors in a broad spectrum of bankruptcy matters, including complex litigation in bankruptcy court. Matt's clients also benefit from his experience outside of the bankruptcy context, where he represents clients ranging from Fortune 500 and other large companies to smaller businesses and individuals in dispute-resolution and litigation matters involving a wide range of substantive legal issues. Prior to becoming an attorney, Matt, who hails originally from New York, spent 5 years doing business and strategic development for numerous first-generation Internet companies, experience that is valuable to Matt's clients in the technology and media industries. In New York, Matt also worked as a writer and editor, his work having appeared in a variety of nationally distributed newspapers and magazines, including The Village Voice and Fast Company. It comes as no surprise, then, that Matt frequently writes on various legal topics, including contributions to bar publications and treatises. Matt is a former associate editor and editorial board member of the ABA's Litigation News and has spoken at numerous CLEs and other legal seminars. Matt is a member of the Executive Committee of the Oregon State Bar's Debtor-Creditor Section as well as a member of the American Bankruptcy Institute and the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys. When Matt isn't working, he enjoys painting, drawing, playing music, and, most of all, spending time with his wife and two young daughters at their home in Lake Oswego.
