I was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri. I attended Westminster College and graduated with a degree in Sports Management and Marketing in 2014. I then attended St. Louis University School of Law and earned his law degree in 2017.. After law school and passing the Missouri Bar, I began my legal career practicing Family Law. The five years I spent litigating domestic cases gave me a look at some of the hardships clients are facing when they need an attorney. Helping my clients navigate through the emotional and financial stresses of divorce or child custody matters gave me an understanding and appreciation for what it takes to make a positive difference in a client's life. My experience handling such hardships allows me to relate to and effectively communicate with clients who are physically injured. I have the experience and the empathy to better understand and represent the voice of my clients, whose injuries are leaving them faced with many physical, emotional and financial uncertainties. It is an honor to represent my clients and give them a voice in the courtroom.. When I am not at the office, I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, especially my wife and daughter.

I was born and raised in St. Louis and have spent my legal career fighting for those charged with crimes in the State of Missouri. After graduating from law school, I worked for the Missouri State Public Defender for over 10 years. During that time, I represented hundreds of clients facing charges as low as traffic offenses to as high as murder and everything in between. I am a passionate advocate for my clients and no matter the odds, will always fight for you!

I understand the impact of criminal charges on lives. If you are accused, I will work with you to get the best result.

A 7th-generation Missourian, I am the son of a shoe-cutter and a Sunday School teacher who is proud to be a Missourian and the first lawyer in my family.

I strive to forge a trusted counselor relationship with each and every client: a personal and client direct approach, coupled with over thirty years of practical experience to guide clients through difficult commercial problems.  If you are looking for counsel you can trust, who will concentrate on what is important to you, and who has the ability to craft creative strategies and solutions--you may want to talk with me.  Sometimes solutions may be achieved through informal negotiation or alternative dispute resolution forums.  Or trial may be necessary.  Either way, your problem will be addressed with your objectives in mind, and a firm grasp of what does and does not provide clients the value they deserve.. I am centrally based in St. Louis, a wonderful community in which to raise a family. I served on our local School Board in an award winning school district for nearly a decade, including a term as President, in my hometown of Webster Groves, a historic and pleasant bedroom community west of downtown St. Louis.    My outside interests include golf, fly fishing, 20th Century History, management and leadership learning, and supporting my teams- the Blues, the Cardinals, and the Rams.  Although I do not have the time to maintain my former proficiency, I am an accomplished trumpet player and enjoyed performing with the St. Louis Symphony Youth Orchestra, various jazz and rock bands, my college jazz band, and the Washington University Wind Ensemble during law school.. I am active in my community and the business community.  I approach each day with gratitude and a sense of humor.  I consider myself fortunate.

I started my legal career as a Law Clerk for the Honorable Charles B. Blackmar, a Justice with the Missouri Supreme Court and former professor at St. Louis University School of Law. I went on to practice as a trial attorney for the Commercial Litigation Branch of the United States Department of Justice in Washington, D.C. Following this position, I served as a Federal Prosecutor with an emphasis on prosecuting white collar crime, including bank fraud.. After leaving the government, I practiced law at Armstrong, Teasdale, Schlafly & Davis, the third largest law firm in the State of Missouri, where I focused on the areas of commercial litigation, personal injury defense, and white collar criminal defense. I opened my own law firm in 1988.. I attended St. Louis University School of Law where I was the Editor In Chief of the St. Louis University Public Law Review and received the American Jurisprudence Award. I attended college at the University of Missouri St Louis where I graduated Magna Cum Laude and received the Stuart and Evelyn Symington Scholarship Award (former U.S. Senator Stuart Symington).. For over 20 years, I have been a practicing trial attorney. I have litigated and tried cases on behalf of the NASA, the United States Air Force, the Mine Safety and Health Administration, the Motion Pictures Association of America, and Fortune 500 Companies. Most importantly, I have represented individuals just like you against some of the largest corporations in the world.. In 2003, I was recognized by the National Law Journal as National Litigator of the Month for obtaining an $18 million dollar jury verdict involving the death of a child. The Missouri Lawyers Weekly has listed me in the Top 10 jury verdicts in the State of Missouri. In 2011, The Dysart Law Firm, P.C. settled a case for $39.5 Million..

I spent the first ten years of my career as a defense attorney and gained substantial experience representing corporations, insurance companies, and hospitals in personal injury, medical malpractice, business, and product liability cases.  In December 2014, I stepped down from a position at a large St. Louis law firm to start and run a firm with my brother.  I now focus my practice primarily on the representation of people who have been harmed by the negligent and fraudulent acts of others.

I represent the interests of city governments and the interests of management in all areas of labor and employment law.  My experience includes representation of several Missouri municipalities as well as restaurants, manufacturers, insurance companies, and mass transit companies.  I have litigated before state, federal, and administrative courts throughout the country and I have substantial experience in litigation disputes involving arbitration agreements.

I represent individuals, families and small businesses.  The vast  majority of my practice involves personal injury and workers compensation matters.  Personal Injury litigation is a broad term that is best defined as recovering damages for people when their injuries were caused by the negligence of others.. Outside of the law office, I try to stay active in community organizations, but frankly due to family and business commitments, such as my involvement with the Missouri Association of Trial Attorneys to protect the rights of my clients in this State, these groups have taken a back seat in recent years.  In the past, I have participated in the MATA/ Red Cross Disaster related legal Services task force (co-chair 2010) and the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts..

I practice Community Association Law focusing primarily on transactions, collection and litigation. I attended Truman State University in Kirksville, Missouri and earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Political Science in 2002. After conducting fundraising for a non-profit, I went back to school and earned a Masters in Arts degree in Political Science with a focus on Judicial Politics from Northern Illinois University.

I am a member of the Community Association Institute (CAI) and served on the Board of Directors of CAI Heartland Chapter, and the current Chair of Missouri Legislative Action Committee of CAI.  I is licensed in Missouri and Illinois.

I moved to St. Louis from North Carolina in 1994 to attend law school at St. Louis University.  My career began in 1997 as an Assistant Attorney General in the Labor Division of the Missouri Attorney General's office, and then briefly as staff counsel for large insurance company. In 2001, I was presented with the opportunity to enter private practice, which I have enjoyed for the last 19 years.  My law partner retired in 2014, and since that time, I have been a sole practitioner.  I am licensed to practice law in Missouri and Illinois..

I have been married to my charming husband Jesus for the past 23 years, and we have three beautiful and talented children, Bianca, 20, Jesus, 18, and Miguel, 16.

I met with my first client on the couch of my old apartment. The apartment was cheap and gross. I was just out of law school. I had graduated law school during one of the worst legal markets in history. Jobs were scarce and the ones that were available were not very good and did not allow me to get into the courtroom.. I always wanted to represent people with real problems, not review paperwork for businesses trying to add to the bottom line. I decided to start my own firm…in my gross apartment.. That client I met with ended up retaining me as his attorney. He had a custody case and wanted to fight for the right to beinvolved in his son’s life. He didn’t have much money, but I didn’t have much experience. It seemed like a fair deal.. What I did have was motivation and fearlessness. I worked my butt off trying to figure out what I was doing. I worked late every night. I woke up early every morning. I researched the case law. I developed mentors. I called law school friends to ask questions. I attended continuing education conferences.. It was hard. Hard is actually an understatement. Starting a firm from scratch is the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Many attorneys that take that road don’t last a year in business. I’m not ashamed to admit a few tears along the way, a lot of frustration, and more awkward, young attorney moments than I can count.. I signed more clients. I made a name for myself. I started trying a lot of cases. You don’t become a good trial attorney sitting on the sidelines watching others practice law. I became very good through “trial and error.” Pun intended. I picked up an award or two. My practice has been built one brick at a time. I don’t tolerate mistakes. I research my cases. I return my clients’ phone calls. I work really hard.. Oh, and that first case I retained….it turned into a three day trial. And we won. My client now has joint custody of his son.

I love what I do for a living.  My job gives me the opportunity to develop genuinely deep connections with my clients and coworkers.  We get to know each other very well and develop a sense of mutual respect.  This systems we employ and the culture we create sustains my office.  It also makes us highly effective at what we do.. My job also gives me a chance to have fun.  I love the competition that is a part of every case, the strategies and the gamesmanship.  I was very lucky to have worked with a creative and very bright lawyer when I started practicing, and his mantra was: “if you can’t have fun, what’s the point?”  Keeping calm in the process of trial or any court proceeding allows you to have fun, and it helps make the process more tolerable for all concerned – especially our clients.. My work also gives me a chance to help others while having fun.  I was lucky enough to have been in David Glover’s law school class, and David is one funny dude who happens to have his own radio talk show.  Some days, after long hours at my office surrounded by men and women in dark clothing, David invites me to do an “ask the lawyer” segment on the David Glover Show: .  Being in an environment filled with creative, funny people in bright clothing  is reason enough to appear on the show every time Dave invites me, but I really enjoy trying to help the listeners.  It is one simple way of helping the community and enjoying my time as an attorney.. Work also gives me the chance to give back to the community by supporting many charities – usually ones that are closely connected to the struggles of our clients.  For instance, we represented the family of a young man who was shot to death outside a nightclub at a prominent St. Louis landmark.  In the course of our work with the surviving family members, we were simply amazed by the sheer capacity for work, love and devotion the victim’s mother demonstrated.  As a single mother, she often worked two or more jobs and lived at or below the poverty line.  Her two boys went to school and grew up in a community that was filled with drugs, violence and family dysfunction.  Yet her strength of character guided those boys to become hard working, educated young men that were raising their own young families.  After the wrongful death case resolved, we donated money to a shelter for school age children that is known as a last stop before prison or death.  The young men and women who come out of this shelter often find themselves with a diploma in their hand, pride in their souls and a spring in their step because society didn’t give up on them.  By supporting the shelter, we felt as if we were helping others have the chance that our victim’s mother gave her son.

I help individuals who have been injured by the carelessness or recklessness of others. I believe it's important and my obligation to ensure the rights of those whose lives have been damaged not only physically but also in economic and extremely personal ways because an individual, a corporation, an insurance company, a government entity, or a hospital disregarded a safety rule and needlessly endangered them. In this belief and effort I have argued before both state and federal courts on behalf of individuals, researched and drafted memoranda in premises, uninsured motorist, trucking, and Section 1983 Civil Rights cases, as well as drafted arguments on Appeal. Most of the cases handled by my office settle. However, the five lawyers in our firm, including my brother and father, are trial lawyers. In combination we have tried over 350 jury trials. I am blessed to be a part of a profession and work for a firm that strives to ensure the dignity of every human being, despite power, despite wealth, despite intellect or accomplishment.

I hear from lots of people that they felt like their attorney did not give them enough time and did not explain enough about the process.  My goal is to make every client feel a part of their own case, and to ensure that I give each client all the time they want to discuss the process, options, and how to steer the case.. I will talk to anyone who believes they have been wrongfully harmed, and if I cannot help, I will try to find someone who can.  Our firm comes with 30 years of experience, so you know that you are getting the best of both worlds: proven experience and youthful determination to get the job done!

I have successfully obtained hundreds of settlements and judgements throughout my career, including multiple cases exceeding $1,000, recoveries for trucking accident victims and their families. I was born and raised in St. Louis, Missouri, where my father served as a St. Louis County Circuit Judge for 35 years. I continue to live in St. Louis with my wife and three children.

I have practiced law since 1986 in Missouri. My discipline concerned someone taking something from a file in 1999, but was not found out about until 2004. When I found out this information, I clearly was wrong in believing it to be covered by a court order from California, thinking the information was told to me in attorney-client privilege.. Prior to 2006 I had the highest rating an attorneyt can have, AV+. My discipline in Colorado was based upon recipriocity, and is unrelated to anything done wrong in Colorado.. The majority of my practice is based on referrals form other lawyers who know my skills and understand I mad a mistake in the past , which had nothing to do with my capabilities as an attorney,. If given the chance, you will find me to be very straight-forward and understand how to evaulate, prepare, and try medical malpractice cases, and litigation in general.

I have practiced law for over 28 years with a concentration in complex civil litigation including wrongful death, medical malpractice, and product liability. My experience includes trying numerous cases in state and federal courts in Missouri and Illinois. I also advise a wide spectrum of health care clients in government investigations relating to Medicare/Medicaid fraud and abuse, false claims and anti-kickback laws, and professional licensure disciplinary actions. I regularly counsel clients who have been served subpoenas and civil investigative demands from the Department of Justice, Office of Inspector General, state and federal drug agencies, state licensure boards and private parties involved in civil litigation. I also have a successful track record in litigating insurance disputes involving claims for coverage, breach of contract, bad faith and contribution.
