About Christopher

I actively practice law in both Kansas and Missouri.  I work hard to maintain my practice by staying current with changes in the law and implementing them into my practice.  

 

I keep my clients well informed regarding case progress.  I believe strong communication skills are essential to effective representation.  I work very hard ensure that all phone and email communication is returned no later than one business day after receipt of the communication.

 

I am a family oriented person at home.  I take the same approach with my work.  We are a small personalized Firm that pays attention to detail.

 

 

Practice areas

  1. Bankruptcy and debt: 30%

    We specialize in Chapter 7 bankruptcy and offer non-bankruptcy options for consideration as an alternative to bankruptcy. We teach the bankruptcy process so that you can make informed decisions with respect to your situation.

  2. Criminal defense: 30%

    We are capable of handling any level of criminal defense work from felonies down to traffic. We carefully lay out your options and work very hard to get desired results.

  3. Child abuse: 20%

    We handle child in need of care matters. These are civil cases where a child is often removed from the home due to abuse or neglect by a parent or other family member. Sometimes there is out of control behavior on the part of the child that causes a matter to be filed. This is a highly specialized area of the law.

  4. General practice: 10%

    This area includes a wide variety of legal matters including, but not limited to wills, trusts, powers of attorney, transfer on death deeds etc. We also handle contract and small business matters.

  5. Juvenile law: 10%

    Although procedure and consequences are different, this area of law is an extension of our criminal defense practice.
