Brandon's interest in the law started when he observed his first murder trial in the 8th grade. After that moment, he decided to become a trial attorney. He attended Kansas State University pursuing his undergraduate degree. He participated in the trial team at Kansas State, where he achieved the rank of team captain of a nationally qualifying trial team. While in undergrad, he was hired by Addair Thurston as an intern and pursued his dream of criminal defense. He later graduated from Kansas State, Magna Cum Laude, with his B.S. in Political Science. After graduating from Kansas State, Brandon went on to attend law school at the Washburn University School of Law. While at law school, Brandon participated in his law school trial and voir dire teams earning a semi-final placing in a national trial competition and being rated the "top advocate," and achieving the highest individual score in the history of the UMKC Voir Dire Competition. While in law school, Brandon aided in the success of the Washburn undergraduate trial team by helping coach undergraduate students in trial skills. Brandon graduated from Washburn Law with Dean’s Honors, earning his law degree. Brandon later took and passed the Kansas bar examination and now works as a trial attorney for the Addair Thurston law firm. He is always looking to expand his courtroom practice. Trial and litigation are his passion and he hopes to aid his clients with his hard-working attitude, drive, and experience.

Felony Interference with Law Officer
This review is long overdue. Attorney Brandon Katt is simply amazing. My son who is currently stationed in Kansas, got arrested and charged with class A felony of interfering with an officer. If convicted, he would not only have been given a a dishonorable discharge from the army, but also suffered ...

Adjusted my speeding ticket
Brandon is very personable and easy to talk to and less curt and pressed for time than many lawyers I have dealt with. He lowered my speeding ticket and helped me keep it away from insurance by having it be 9 miles over and no more. I highly recommend him base don my experience.

Incredible experience
I was in a situation far from home. When I tried to make phone calls to get progress I was met resistance from everyone except Brandon. I found Brandon he called me back at the exact time he promised and then he told me he would have my case handled within a week. He then called me back within two ho...

Brandon is a Winner
I was charged with 6 trumped up charges for a basic traffic violation, (including attempted battery of a police officer with my car, and reckless driving), and appeared before a judge who has a reputation of rarely ruling in favor of the defendant in cases like this: my word against the police, and n...

Expungement was fast and painless
I hired Brandon for a felony expungement and everything fast and convenient. He also did a great job at explaining confusing parts of the legal process.
"I went to law school with Brandon and had the chance to watch him conduct a trial in Manhattan Municipal Court. He was familiar with his case and prepared to attack the case from all sides. I would recommend him for any criminal charges and often send people his way when they are in the Manhattan area."
"Brandon is one of the most dedicated attorneys I know. He diligently represents his clients and has no problem fighting for their rights. If I ever found myself in a bind, I would most certainly contact him to represent me because I believe in his ability and have seen first-hand the outcome of many of his cases."
"I have known Brandon since he was in law school. As a student, he was hard-working, passionate, and excited about the law. Brandon enjoys the work that he does, and it shows. Since becoming a licensed attorney, Brandon has exceeded even the high expectations I had for him. He is thoughtful and thorough in his work. His clients matter deeply to him. He knows that to the individual client, theirs is the most important case. As such, he treats all with importance. Brandon is a shooting star in the legal community and I believe that he will achieve great things in his career. I highly endorse Brandon as a lawyer and a human being."
