Matthew B.F. Biren is the founder of Biren Law Group and a nationally respected trial lawyer with more than four decades of experience representing seriously injured individuals and small businesses. His practice focuses on complex personal injury, catastrophic injury litigation and products liability cases, where he is known for his ability to take on major corporations and insurance companies and secure significant results for his clients.

After receiving his undergraduate degree from UCLA, Matt went on to pursue his law degree at Loyola University. At the end of his first year, he started clerking for a respected labor law firm. It was there that he first saw the tremendous advantage that large corporations and insurance companies have within the legal system.

While clerking and later working as a labor lawyer himself, however, Matt realized that seriously injured individuals and small businesses could compete with these large corporations and insurance companies if only they had the right lawyer by their side. It is for this reason that he has devoted his professional career to developing a skill set that would allow him to protect the rights of “the little guy.”

Throughout the past four decades, Matt has consistently demonstrated unwavering dedication to safeguarding the rights of his clients. In fact, the introduction of modern technology into his practice has served as a catalyst, propelling him to intensify his efforts even further. Reflecting upon his extensive and prosperous career, Matt takes great pride in achieving his childhood aspiration of becoming an exceptionally skilled trial attorney, akin to his admired heroes. Notably, in 2023, Matt played a pivotal role as co-counsel in a case that culminated in a remarkable jury verdict, granting a total of $60 million ($95 million including pre-judgment interest) to the injured lady and her husband.

His commitment to excellence has earned him recognition in Southern California Super Lawyers® every year since 2006.

Biren Law Group has extensive experience litigating product liability matters, a complex area of personal injury law that involves unique legal theories, distinct evidentiary requirements, and a wide range of potential accidents and injuries. Because these cases frequently involve powerful corporate defendants, they are often aggressively contested and demand strategic, knowledgeable representation.

The firm conducts meticulous investigations, works closely with qualified experts, and applies a deep understanding of California products liability law to determine whether a product was defectively designed, manufactured, or marketed. Biren Law Group is committed to devoting the resources and attention necessary to build strong claims and position clients for maximum compensation.

With more than 100 years of experience and over half a billion dollars recovered, the firm is well equipped to handle even the most complex defective product cases. Individuals injured by dangerous or defective products are encouraged to consult with a Biren Law Group product liability attorney to discuss their legal options.

The product liability attorneys at Biren Law Group have secured substantial recoveries for clients across a range of defective product cases. Notable matters include:

  • The firm has handled and continues to handle cases against defective firepot manufacturers, starting with two cases against the makers of the FLIKR fireport.  The firm has recovered millions of dollars of compensation for victims of these defective products and was instrumental in getting the FLIKR fireplace banned and they exposed the dangers of these products on a national news program.
  • Jane Doe v. Roe Company: The firm obtained a $2.5 million settlement for a client who suffered brain damage after falling from a defective swing ride.

  • Benge v. Mac Machines: Biren Law Group helped a group of battery plant workers recover millions of dollars in damages for lead poisoning caused by a defective product.

  • Richardson v. Marathon Letourneau: A worker who sustained brain damage due to defective equipment recovered millions with the firm’s representation.

  • Jalisco Cheese Cases: Two children born with brain injuries after their mothers consumed contaminated Jalisco cheese during pregnancy recovered millions.

Biren Law Group brings more than 100 years of experience to the service of individuals and small businesses harmed by negligence or wrongdoing. Founded on the belief that private citizens deserve representation equal to—or better than—that of large corporations and insurance companies, the firm was established by Matthew B. F. Biren after his years as a labor attorney revealed how unbalanced the legal playing field can be.

The firm distinguishes itself through a distinctive approach: a true team effort from start to finish. Instead of delegating the bulk of the work to associates, the Biren team engages every attorney and staff member on each case. Contingency-fee representation ensures clients pay nothing unless compensation is achieved. Strategic trial-readiness and the leveraging of an extensive expert network help the firm pursue not just liability, but the full scope of damages.

With over 100 years of combined legal experience, Biren Law Group has secured more than half a billion dollars in compensation for its clients. Active in litigation, continuing legal education, and professional associations, the attorneys embody a results-driven mindset rooted in service and advocacy. The firm invites potential clients to explore their approach and schedule a no-risk, free consultation.

“With a career spanning more than four decades, Mr. Biren stands out for his fearlessness in challenging corporate defendants and insurance carriers. His courtroom presence and client-centered approach make him a go-to lawyer for serious injury cases.”
