Matlin Injury Law does one thing: Colorado car accident cases. Founded and led by Brian Matlin, the firm exists so injured people never have to face an insurance company alone.
Why this firm exists
One serious crash can upend your life in moments. Pain sets in. Work gets missed. Your car is out of commission. Then the calls start — an adjuster who sounds friendly and wants a recorded statement before you've even seen a specialist. Matlin Injury Law was founded for that very moment.
The firm is focused on car accidents, because focus matters. Rear-end collisions, intersection crashes, drunk, distracted and uninsured drivers, hit-and-runs and rideshare wrecks — these cases follow patterns. Matlin has built its process around those patterns: the evidence that can win, the injuries these crashes cause and the tactics insurers often use to shrink claims.
Clients feel it. Matlin Injury Law has a 5.0 rating across 471 Google reviews, and the themes are consistent: clear communication, quick answers and a team that treats your case like it matters. The firm serves 14 Front Range cities, from Denver and Aurora to Colorado Springs — every community is listed on the locations page.
Help is meant to be easy to get. Free consultations happen wherever you are — over the phone, by text or online. You don't need to visit an office while you're recovering. Tell the firm about the crash, answer a few key questions, and leave with a clearer picture of what your next step may look like.
The attorney behind the firm
Brian Matlin founded the firm and owns it. Having grown up in Colorado, he built his practice around the roads he's driven his whole life — the same highways, intersections and commuter corridors where his clients suffer injuries. That local grounding guides how the firm looks at a crash: how traffic moves, how insurers typically respond here and what a claim may genuinely be worth.
The idea for Matlin Injury Law came from a simple frustration: injured people were being processed like file numbers. Brian's answer was a firm where the owner knows your name, your injuries and your file — with a fee promise written so the firm never makes more than you. That standard drives everything, from which cases Matlin accepts to the advice you get about settling or pushing ahead.
Results at the firm include a $1.5M motor vehicle accident victory and a $1.0M motor vehicle accident victory. Past results never guarantee a future outcome — every case is decided on its own facts — but they show what a focused crash firm can do. Find more on the case results page.
Inside Matlin's case process
Crashes differ. The approach is consistent every time.
Early work builds momentum. A claim documented from week one — treatment tied to the crash, fault evidence preserved, coverage mapped — is one an insurer struggles to minimize. Waiting does the opposite. Evidence fades fast, and any gap in treatment can become an argument against you.
All along the way, you're kept up to date. Questions get real answers — by phone, text or online, whichever is most convenient while you recover.
The promise
Matlin never makes more than you. It's not a catchphrase — it's the founding promise, and it's meant literally. Together with the fee structure, no fee unless we win, it makes the incentives point the right way: the firm only does well when you do.
This is why it matters. In a contingency-fee case, the lawyer's share can sometimes leave a client with less than the firm that handled their case. Brian made sure his firm would not work that way. When Matlin takes your case, the promise travels with it.
