These practice area groups allow our attorneys to team up with trusted partners with a similar passion.rnSince 1912 we have added attorneys and developed practices; but our simple philosophy has never changed: at the core of every case is the client. We worry about only two things: the client’s best interest – and the law. The client’s goals become our goals, and our firm works tirelessly to find the most efficient and cost-effective solution to each legal issue.rnLashly & Baer, P.C. attorneys have served in Bar leadership positions at all levels; and several attorneys have been honored with listings in Best Lawyers in America® 2018 (Copyright 2014 by Woodward/White, Inc., of Aiken, S.C.) and multiple attorneys have been selected for inclusion in Missouri & Kansas Super Lawyers.
