Matthew J. Mussalli

Mr. Mussalli has been practicing law since 1996 and over the course of his years of practice, he has appeared in both state and federal trial and appellate courts and arbitration proceedings in Texas, New York, other states and beyond, as clients’ needs have required.

In 2005, Mr. Mussalli achieved an AV-Preeminent rating, the highest possible Martindale-Hubbell® peer reviewed rating for lawyers for both professional legal ability and ethical standards. His practice emphasizes litigation of complex business, construction, personal injury and death, and commercial disputes.

He has first and second-chaired many cases to jury verdict in various state and federal courts in Texas and New York and is often retained by other attorneys as trial counsel. Among the past cases in which Mr. Mussalli has had either primary or shared responsibility have been prosecution and defense of commercial business, shareholder and member oppression, construction, wrongful death and contested probate litigation matters. Such cases involve as few as one Plaintiff and one Defendant to as many as dozens of parties. The substantive complexity varies on a case-by-case basis, but Mr. Mussalli’s diverse background and ability to get to the heart of the controversy and determine leverage points aids clients very well.
