The most satisfying aspect of JR’s practice is stepping in when clients don’t know what to do next, taking up a matter they can’t deal with on their own, and resolving it together.
JR has advised Fortune-100 companies, contractors, financial institutions, property owners, manufacturers, construction and real estate companies, commercial landlords, employers, nonprofits, start-ups and others. His emphasis focuses on litigation, where he pays special attention to his clients' ultimate goals.
Contract claims; business torts; real estate and construction disputes; enforcement and defense of restrictive covenants; and single- and class-discrimination claims are just a few of the kinds of litigation JR has handled to successful resolution and verdicts in state and federal courts.
Taking his legal skills and a desire to support others outside the office, JR is also involved in a variety of pro bono work, including helping found a nonprofit that is curing food deserts in Kansas City.
