A large firm with a small-town background

Like many of our clients, most of our lawyers grew up in small towns in the Ozarks. They excelled academically and pursued law degrees at well-known universities before settling near Springfield, Missouri to live and practice.

We handle contract, transactional and litigation work on the local, national and international stage. But we never forget our roots. We treat our clients like we treat our friends and neighbors - with courtesy and respect. We put your best interest ahead of our own.
