As Founder and Chief Growth Officer of MBL Title, Matthew Lopez oversees business development and sales activities, public relations and marketing efforts, as well as serves as a key member of the executive leadership team that establishes and manages the strategic growth, vision, and operations of the company. The quintessential “deal guy,” Matthew has guided clients through every aspect of a wide variety of sophisticated real estate transactions, ranging from acquisitions and dispositions to development and financing, including interim construction and permanent financing matters.

Matthew previously served as a transactional attorney at elite Dallas–based law firm Hughes & Luce, LLP, and then at international law firm K&L Gates LLP, following the two firms’ combination in 2008. In 2012, Matthew founded MBL Law, offering sophisticated real estate legal expertise and general counsel services to a broad range of local businesses and real estate entrepreneurs. With increasing client demand, MBL Law expanded to provide the full suite of commercial and residential title services to clients in Texas and nationwide. In 2014, in order to meet ever–growing client needs, Matthew co–founded MBL Title as a fully licensed title agency in Texas.

Matthew’s experience, combining his legal expertise and business acumen, includes representing clients in land acquisitions for large developments; complex contract and lease negotiations; analysis of development restrictions; land use and title issues; contract disputes and pre–litigation negotiations; foreclosures, as well as negotiating and drafting loan documents, company agreements, corporate resolutions, development agreements, purchase and sale agreements, and office and commercial lease agreements.

In addition, Matthew has worked with municipalities on development agreements and tax incentives, zoning and land use; and represented hedge funds and partnerships in the acquisition and disposition of hotel properties and retail properties, including multi–state and multi–property transactions.

Matthew is a LEED Accredited Professional (LEED–AP), a distinction he earned through the Green Building Certification Institute. As a LEED–AP, he has demonstrated a thorough understanding of green building practices and principles, as well as the LEED Rating System.

In his free time, Matthew enjoys competing in triathlons (including Ironman distance), Brazilian Jiu–Jitsu and traveling.
