Meet Matt Strauser

Meet the newest member of our Railroad Injury team: Matt Strauser.

Matt joins Schlichter Bogard & Denton from an East Coast plaintiff’s firm, where he focused his practice on the representation of seriously injured individuals. Prior to entering private practice, Matt clerked from 2020 to 2021 for U.S. District Judge John A. Gibney Jr., and from 2019 to 2020 for Circuit Court Judges Mary Jane Hall and Jerrauld C. Jones.

Matt graduated summa cum laude from William & Mary Law School, where he served as president of the school’s National Trial Team, was inducted into the Order of the Barristers, and served as Symposium Editor for the William & Mary Law Review. Before law school, Matt worked for the Mississippi Teacher Corps. He received his B.A. cum laude from Princeton.

Matt has a unique understanding of personal injury. While at Princeton, he played Division 1 football as a defensive lineman. Following an injury, his days as a collegiate football player were abruptly ended. That said, he remained a part of the program for three additional years, assisting with practice and recruiting efforts. In the years that followed, Matt dedicated his life’s work to help make injury victims whole.

Matt grew up in Western Tennessee and has family in nearby Southern Illinois. He and his wife have now made St. Louis their home.
