Matthew S.
Faher
Attorney Matthew S. Faher is certified as a specialist in the practice of workers’ compensation law by the Pennsylvania Bar Association’s Section on Workers’ Compensation Law as authorized by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court. As the son of a former mine worker whose career ended when the mine shut down, he recognizes the issues and dangers faced by working individuals.
“I am proud of the work we do here. It’s a privilege to help clients through the difficulties they face after an accident. Helping clients restore and rebuild a sense of control over their lives, while shouldering some of their worries for them, is the most meaningful aspect of the work I do.”
Before joining Edgar Snyder & Associates, Matt worked with Rudberg Law as a workers’ compensation lawyer. This experience, along with Matt’s upbringing, provides him with a deep understanding that each person has a different sense of what is fundamentally fair. Furthermore, he knows that communication and preparation form the keystone of an attorney-client relationship and will work to ensure that all his clients' needs are met.
