About
Founded 1997
With a strong foundation in the Midwest, Wagstaff & Cartmell has earned an esteemed reputation as a leader in high-stakes litigation and trial advocacy across the nation. Equally important to us is our solid standing within the Kansas City legal community and our numerous long-term relationships with valued clients throughout the area. Our attorneys often take on leadership positions in significant multi-district litigations spanning from California to New York, contributing their expertise to both nationally recognized cases as well as influential local matters. We engage collaboratively with experts, mediators, and consultants at both regional and national levels. Our comprehensive practice encompasses intricate civil litigation covering areas such as professional liability, business disputes, product liability claims, and severe personal injury cases. In every aspect of our work—whether preparing for court or advocating for our clients—we excel through efficiency and creativity while upholding credibility at all times. Our impressive team consists of skilled attorneys hailing from large law firms; several are former federal law clerks who have received accolades for their outstanding contributions within the legal field.
