About Matthew William
Matthew William Bassie earned a B.A. in Political Science and Pre-Law from the University of Alabama in 2015. He went on to earn his J.D. from Thomas Goode Jones School of Law at Faulkner University in 2019. Those formative years shaped his familiarity with Alabama law and court procedure. They also set the stage for a practice rooted in the state where he studied.
After completing law school, Bassie began practicing in Alabama. He now operates The Law Office of Matthew W. Bassie, a private practice based in the state. The move to open his own office reflects a choice to handle client matters directly and to manage the day-to-day work of a small law practice. Colleagues and clients see him in courtrooms and conference rooms across Alabama.
Bassie’s work involves representation in matters presented in state venues and administrative settings. He advises individuals and businesses on legal questions that arise under Alabama law. He prepares filings, negotiates on behalf of clients and appears in hearings when needed. He approaches each file with an eye on procedure and on the practical consequences for the people involved.
His training at the University of Alabama and Thomas Goode Jones School of Law informs how he analyzes statutory text and precedent. Law school coursework and clinical experiences exposed him to courtroom practice and client counseling, and those lessons carry over into his day-to-day work. He keeps up with changes in state law and local rules to ensure filings align with current practice.
People who come to his office often face time-sensitive problems. Bassie emphasizes clear communication about timelines, possible outcomes and the steps required by the client. He balances advocacy in contested matters with negotiation where settlement is a better path. He handles procedural tasks himself and coordinates with other professionals when a matter calls for specialized expertise.
Bassie is admitted to practice in Alabama and maintains an office to serve clients within the state. His practice centers on providing legal services to individuals and businesses throughout Alabama.
