About Matthew Chase
Matthew Chase Swanson is a Georgia-licensed attorney who built his practice inside a single firm over more than a decade. He combines a business undergraduate degree with a law degree. The result is a lawyer comfortable with numbers and legal text. He presents himself plainly and practices in a state court environment he knows well.
Swanson earned a Bachelor of Business Administration in economics from Mercer University in 2007. He returned to Mercer for law school and received his J.D. in 2010. The two degrees anchor his approach. The economics training informs how he evaluates financial details. The law degree supplied the doctrinal and procedural tools he would use at the bar.
After graduating in 2010, he joined Jones & Swanson as an associate attorney. He remained with that firm and in 2015 became a partner. That progression—associate to partner in five years—reflects steady advancement inside a single practice setting. His career has taken place entirely at Jones & Swanson, where he has handled a range of matters typical of private firm practice.
Colleagues describe him as methodical and detail-oriented in day-to-day work. He often applies economic reasoning when preparing analyses for clients or when reviewing complex documents. The combination of law and economics is a throughline in his files. It appears in the way he prepares financial data for legal use and in how he frames problems for clients who expect clear numerical context.
Over the years he has developed practical habits: careful drafting, thorough document review, and attention to deadlines. He has remained in Georgia courts and regulatory settings. He communicates directly with clients about the implications of legal choices. He also mentors younger lawyers at the firm, passing on routines and standards that reflect his time as an associate and as a partner.
He continues to practice at Jones & Swanson in Georgia. His current practice concentrates on client matters that involve legal and economic analysis.
