Working Hard to Earn Your Trust

People come to me at the worst time of their life. I love nothing more than to say, “You worry about getting better and I’ll take care of the rest.”

Jake’s Story of Recovery.

In a split second, Jake went from being a fit and motivated military reservist and college student to not knowing if he’d ever walk again. The car in which Jake was a backseat passenger lost control and flipped into a ditch. His whole future was flipped upside down by this car accident, too. Watch Jake’s video to see how he has bounced back and how Matt Dale helped along the way.

Demystifying the System

My practice ensures that injured people and their families get the compensation they’re entitled to following motor vehicle and slip & fall accidents. Along the way, I’ll explain complex legal issues in language my clients understand so that they can make the most informed decisions possible about their cases.

Throughout my career, I have been honoured to have been asked to speak to law students at Western University and to participate in trial advocacy demonstrations for continuing legal education and development programs.

  • Recognized in the Canadian Legal Lexpert Directory for Personal Injury (2021-2022, 2025)
  • Recognized in Best Lawyers in Canada for Personal Injury Litigation (2019-2024)
  • Middlesex Law Association
  • Ontario Bar Association
  • Canadian Bar Association

You can expect me to work as hard as you do. I’ll be available and I will keep you in the loop every step of the way. I pride myself on making sure my clients understand the ins and outs of the litigation process. I know how important your case is.

Your Recovery is my priority

There’s a power imbalance between injured people and the insurance companies from which they seek compensation.

It’s David vs. Goliath.

I have a strong sense of fairness and I don’t like people getting pushed around. I fight for the underdog — and work hard to achieve the best possible result for you.

A Life-Changing Case

One of my most rewarding cases involved a teenager who suffered catastrophic injuries. His life was completely derailed. We pushed his case until the insurer finally agreed to settle right before our trial was scheduled to start. After overcoming a number of physical hurdles, he now works in the rehab field, helping other injured people. His perseverance continues to inspire me to fight for the injured people who are counting on me.

They were with me from the time I woke up until my case settled and beyond. Matt always had my back and he made sure that my rehab team was the best possible. The focus was always on helping me get better.
