He earned his B.A., magna cum laude, in French and Political Science from Washington University in St. Louis.
After law school, Mr. Matorin clerked for the Hon. Monroe G. McKay, Chief Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit. Upon completion of his clerkship, Mr. Matorin practiced as an Honors Program Trial Attorney in the Civil Division of the United States Department of Justice. There, he developed a reputation as a skilled and creative litigator and appellate advocate, receiving several commendations from his clients. Mr. Matorin then joined the international firm of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, in Washington, DC, where he focused on commercial and intellectual property litigation and appellate practice, including the preparation of petitions for certiorari and briefs on the merits before the United States Supreme Court.
In 2001, Mr. Matorin returned to his Boston area roots and joined the Foley Hoag firm as a litigator focusing on intellectual property, Internet, and computer law issues.
