Matthew L. Wilson has limited his practice to Pennsylvania workers' compensation law since 1988. He originally represented agencies with the City of Philadelphia, major insurance carriers and self-insured corporations.

He frequently lectures to other lawyers on workers' compensation in a variety of subject areas. He is co-author of the Pennsylvania Bar Institute's Workers' Compensation Practice and Procedure Manual, which is known among attorneys and judges as the "bible" on workers' compensation law.
Since 1997, Mr. Wilson has been a featured speaker at the biennial "Tough Problems in Workers' Compensation" seminar. He has also presented multiple lectures at the spring and fall meetings of the Pennsylvania Workers' Compensation Section as well as the statewide biannual practice and procedure program.
