Matthew E. Newell

Matt’s practice is focused on advising closely held businesses and their owners on real estate transactions, business transactions, and corporate governance. Matt leverages his varied experience—in the corporate group at Oregon’s largest law firm, as a real estate executive at a retail automotive group, and as general counsel at global automotive services company—to provide more than legal advice to his clients; he acts as a strategic business partner. 


Matt possesses a deep understanding of corporate law and is committed to helping clients achieve their goals while safeguarding their interests. He assists companies in all stages of development with a variety of matters, including entity formation, contract negotiation, mergers and acquisitions, corporate governance, and business succession planning. 


For more than a decade, a significant part of Matt’s practice has been focused on real estate acquisition and development. Matt utilizes his experience, both as a manager of a corporate real estate portfolio and as lead real estate counsel for a global automotive services company, to help his clients purchase, sell, lease, finance, and design/construct commercial real estate in a variety of industries. 


While Matt's expertise and professional experience apply to a myriad of industries, he specializes in the retail automotive industry. Leveraging his prior experience as General Counsel for two automotive companies, Matt provides informed and practical advice to franchised automobile dealers on a number of issues, including manufacturer relations, franchise agreements, mergers and acquisitions, and regulatory compliance.
