Founder and Principal Attorney
We work at the intersection of business law and personal planning—helping clients structure, protect, and transfer what matters most.

Counsel on formation, operations, and transactions

Clear, tailored planning for every stage of your life and generations to come

Legal structures designed to reduce risk and secure what you've earned

Support to settle estates and administer trusts with confidence
For over three decades, we’ve served Missouri families and businesses with practical legal guidance built on trust and consistency.

Our entire legal team is personable and approachable. We don’t talk over clients or spout legalese to make ourselves seem important. We get to know each client on a personal level.

When a client chooses us, our goal is to advise for the long term. A business’s legal needs are continuous, and a family estate plan should frequently be evaluated over the years.

At large firms, personal attention is hard to come by. Solo attorneys may lack bandwidth. Our team approach ensures clients get timely, thoughtful responses when they need them.
Selling your business is one of the most significant financial decisions you’ll ever make. Whether you’re just starting to consider your exit or you’re already in discussions with potential buyers, this guide will equip you with the knowledge you need to make informed decisions every step of the way.
Whether you’re planning ahead or responding to change, we’re here to listen, answer questions, and help you move forward with confidence.
We value the relationships we build and the trust clients place in us to handle their most important legal matters.
We’ve answered some of the most common legal questions business owners ask when planning, growing, or preparing to transition their company.
We advise closely held businesses, family-run companies, and professional practices across a range of industries. Whether you're starting, growing, or preparing for transition, we offer practical legal support tailored to your goals.
Ideally, early. Having legal counsel from the beginning helps you choose the right structure, avoid common missteps, and build a strong foundation for long-term success. We also step in when needs become more complex—like contracts, disputes, or succession planning.
Yes. Many of our clients rely on us as their go-to legal partner. We assist with contracts, governance, employment matters, and risk management—providing steady support as your business evolves.
Each structure has legal and tax implications. We help you understand the pros and cons—so you can choose the right entity based on ownership, liability, and growth plans.
It’s never too early. Reaching out a year or more in advance allows time to address legal issues, clean up your records, and structure the sale in your best interest.
We’re responsive, thorough, and experienced in both legal strategy and practical realities. You won’t get passed around. We build lasting relationships and help our clients make confident, informed decisions.
