Best attorney in KCMO / El mejor abogado en KCMO

I thought for good that my case was a dead end . I’m from St. Joseph, MO and all attorneys in town and part of Kansas City area turn me down. I bought a car to a small dealership in Blue Springs , MO where a month later did vanished and took my traded car without paying it off as it was agreed. I ...found Mr. Lee on the web site and scheduled an appointment. We’d talked and I explained my situation and showed all paperwork and proof of my statement against that dealership. He promptly after one week started the case . He communicate every step of the way what I need it to do and say and he patiently made me understand certain things I did not comprehend. And less than 9 months my case was solved and he made the settlement $$$ available for all my atrocities in my personal life . Thanks to his efforts and dedication , and his experience in this field my life is back to normal. God bless him , I’m so thankful to Mr. Lee . Al principio pensé que mi caso ya no tenía solución. Soy de St. Joseph, MO y todos los abogados en esta ciudad me dieron la espalda, incluyendo algunos en La área metropolitana de Kansas City , MO. Compre un coche en una pequeña Concesionaria de coches en Blue Springs, MO donde después de un mes de aver comprado mi coche ese lugar desapareció por completo llevándose mi coche que había intercambiado por el otro y sin ellos pagarlo como estaba en el contrato. Encontré al Sr. Lee en la página web y hablé por teléfono para hacer una cita con el . Discutimos el asunto, le mostré documentos y otras pruebas acerca de mi situación en contra de la concesionaria de coches. Después de una semana el inicio el caso. Me explico lo que tenia que decir y hacer específicamente y con paciencia me hizo entender cosas que yo no entendía ni idea de cómo serían los procedimientos a seguir. En menos de 9 meses el resolvió mi caso e hizo posible $$$ dinero en mis manos para cubrir gastos de los daños de este delito. Gracias a sus esfuerzos y dedicación y sobre todo experiencia en este campo tan difícil de remediar mi vida personal llegó a la normalidad. Dios lo bendiga! Estoy de verdad muy agradecido con el Señor Lee.

If you have a problem you gotta call on Lee Anderson

I had some issues with a car purchase and just knew I was being treated unfairly. I stumbled across Lee's profile and gave him a call. He immediately had me come into his office and speak with him about the issue and fill him in on everything. He sat and listened and took notes and asked plenty of qu...estions to dig deep. From the beginning he took an interest and kept everything honest with me and always kept me up to date on things happening. I never knew all of my rights when it came to my complaint and any legal actions that could be taken. I was just under the assumption that I was up a creek without a paddle. But Lee stepped in and assured me that he could help me out. Over time he fought back and forth and kept going further and further for me. Even when I thought there is no chance of anything changing, Lee made it happen. So much was going wrong in my personal life and this issue that I was running into was taking a real toll on me. But thankfully Lee stepped in and justice was truly served. I don't know what my situation would be right now without his assistance in the matter. One wants to feel as if his lawyer is fighting for him and not taking a high road to make himself look better. And I know Lee fought for me, just in how he handled my case and how he spoke let me know that he would have fought any on-comers that was trying to do me wrong. I thank God for Lee and his legal team. If you have some issues this is the lawyer to call. Honest, up front, understanding, knowledgeable and all around great guy. Thanks so much Lee, my family and myself greatly appreciate the amazing job you did for us.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
