No stranger to competition and hard work, Matt Cross is dedicated to achieving the best possible outcomes for the clients he represents. In the years since he entered the practice, Matt has amassed an impressive amount of experience in entertainment law and civil litigation. To him, every case poses a unique problem, and it’s up to him to devote whatever time and effort is needed to find an answer and secure an optimal result. Advocacy is his passion, and he has committed substantial energy to developing his strong written advocacy talents in particular. Matt attributes his rock-solid work ethic to the values instilled in him while growing up in a blue-collar household. Proud of and grateful for his upbringing, he trained and worked as a fireman right out of high school, played varsity baseball in college, and graduated from Ferris State University with Magna Cum Laude honors. He then launched a career in the music industry in New York City before later returning to Michigan to attend law school at Wayne State University. There, he took advantage of various law firm and public interest clerkships and served as associate editor for the Journal of Law in Society on his way to earning his Juris Doctor in 2013.
