Bowman and Brooke Trial Paralegal Matthew Fordyce has been named a 2017 "Unsung Legal Hero" by Minnesota Lawyer magazine. This award is reserved for the state’s most talented and dedicated legal support professionals, and Matt not only meets, but exceed these criteria.

A true trial paralegal, attorneys equate practicing with Matt Fordyce like practicing with another partner. He is the rare paralegal who spends more time in trial than in the office, having been to trial six times in 14 months. Matt has excelled in navigating trial and litigation practice support technology and has extensive knowledge and proficiency of the firm's electronic case management tools. His resulting expertise in trial preparation and best-in-class performance has earned him the reputation as "quarterback of the war room" among his colleagues. 

Matthew along with his "Unsung Legal Hero" honorees will be recognized alongside the "Up & Coming Attorneys" on September 7 at the Hyatt Regency in downtown Minneapolis. Minnesota Lawyer will publish a special section in their September issue profiling the honorees.
