Matthew is widely respected by colleagues and peers, and regarded as one of the most technically able solicitors in the field: driven, fearless, incisive and a figure to respect in court.

Matthew’s background includes working with some of the most vulnerable in society through publicly funded work based across London. That robust and rigorous introduction to legal life lay the foundations for a professional career defined by supporting others. As a natural leader, Matthew came to head teams in Criminal, Regulatory and Mental Health work both in London and then from 2008 in the South West. Matthew now leads the national practice at Stone King, and handles cases nationwide.

Matthew is a hugely experienced and commanding advocate conducting both contested and plea cases routinely, in courts all over England and Wales.

Matthew works with individuals, families and organisations to find solutions that work. His rare multi-disciplinary and cross sector experience brings solutions that really make a difference. His eye for detail and ability to identify the key issues quickly and accurately make him both a key ally and trusted advisor. With a real and deep commitment to social justice, Matthew’s responsibility and dedication to the clients he works with quickly cements those relationships.

Matthew has a particular interest and expertise in working with those experiencing Mental Health issues and has both substantial experience and a personal interest in working with people with Autistic Spectrum Disorders, including Asperger Syndrome.
