Recognitions

In 2017, Matt was listed among the IAM Patent 1000 for the third time, noting he "focuses on the end game from the moment a case is filed, which means he is thoroughly prepared for trial, but equally well placed to end disputes with a business resolution before trial." That publication also stated in 2016 that "Unstoppable force Matthew Satchwell has elevated [DLA Piper's] group to the next level…Matt is proactive and ridiculously diligent, and very experienced, too."  The respected legal directory The Legal 500 United States recommended Matt, saying that he is "very reliable for [his] clients but formidable to [his] opponents."

In 2016, for a second time, Matt was named to Law360's list of "Rising Stars," which recognizes lawyers under 40 who have impressive legal accomplishments in their respective practices. Law360 highlighted his innovative approach to complex patent jury trials, ITC trials, and inter partes reviews in automotive, GPS, consumer electronics, and electrical engineering matters. When naming Matt to its 2014 list of Rising Stars, Law360 hailed his "successful international practice representing some of the world's largest technology companies in major patent litigation." Only 10 IP lawyers in total were named to that list. Law360 also noted that he "has established himself as an expert in American patent litigation in Japan."

Also in 2014, the Chicago Daily Law Bulletin's 40 Under 40 selected Matt, noting "at a young age, Satchwell has already experienced great success in court in complex intellectual property cases."
