About Rachel
Rachel Mattie earned her Juris Doctor from Barry University Dwayne O. Andreas School of Law in 2014. She completed the program at a time when practical skills and clinic work were central to the curriculum. Her law school years gave her a foundation in legal analysis and courtroom procedure that she has drawn on since.
After graduating, Mattie moved into private practice. She took on the routine demands of client intake, case preparation and courtroom filings. Over the years she has combined research, negotiation and advocacy in everyday casework. She also maintains membership in professional associations and participates in the networks those groups create.
Her work reflects the ordinary variety of a small-firm practice. That means long hours of document review, counseling clients about options, and preparing litigation files when cases proceed to court. She handles the practical tasks that determine whether a matter resolves early or requires a trial-ready posture. Colleagues describe her as a steady presence when deadlines pile up and facts need sorting.
In the office, Mattie has taken on both client-facing roles and behind-the-scenes responsibilities. She prepares pleadings, drafts agreements and coordinates with experts when necessary. She balances case strategy with client communication, explaining legal choices in plain language. This pragmatic approach helps clients understand what to expect at each stage.
Mattie practices at The Umansky Law Office. The firm environment has allowed her to work across multiple matter types and to collaborate with other attorneys on more complex issues. She continues to strengthen the routine skills that form the backbone of everyday practice: legal research, drafting and court procedure. Outside client work, she stays engaged with colleagues through her professional association memberships.
Her career path follows a straightforward arc from law school to steady private-practice work. Her current practice centers on representing clients at The Umansky Law Office.
