With a gift for oral argument, Mycal defends clients in complex commercial litigation.
Mycal knew from a very early age he wanted to become an attorney—specifically a litigator, helping clients inside of a courtroom. His law school courses and mock trial experience only confirmed this belief. He served as a summer associate both at a plaintiff firm and then at Husch Blackwell, providing him with valuable and practical experience on both sides of cases. Mycal has drafted petitions, motions and requests; researched key legal questions; and attended hearings, depositions, mediations and other court proceedings.
Prior to law school, Mycal’s first career was as an elementary school teacher. Yet his lifelong interest in the law remained. The more he taught, the more he realized that the qualities and passions that helped him excel in the classroom—researching, learning and explaining solutions—would also make him an excellent fit as an attorney.
Mycal’s experience as a teacher has only helped to build his skills as an attorney. Clients appreciate his ability to explain and break down complex legal issues. He is particularly gifted at teaching the law to juries, and he excels at persuasive closing arguments.
While Mycal defends clients in many industries, he especially enjoys working with schools and other educational institutions, drawing on his own background in education. He is also passionate about white collar and antitrust work. However, what Mycal enjoys most about the practice of law is simply working hand-in-hand with companies to determine what they need, what strategy will be most effective, and how he can best help clients.
