Schlagel Gordon & Kinzer’s civil litigation attorneys are skilled and involved in a wide array of civil litigation ranging from prelitigation advice, to mediation or arbitration, trial and appeal.  We have a broad experience with civil cases, having litigated disputes in employment law, intellectual property law, contracts, estates and trusts, fraud, negligence and other tort claims, real estate and securities and many others claims.  SGK represents a diverse client base including individuals, small entrepreneurs and large companies.

SGK’s litigation group prides itself on gaining an understanding of the value and significance of the controversy to the client and fashioning a litigation strategy aimed at resolving a matter as quickly and efficiently as possible.  Since litigation often involves serious emotional disruption in the lives of litigants and their families, SGK focuses on minimizing the emotional impact on clients as much as possible.  To that end, where appropriate, SGK uses alternative dispute resolution in lieu of court proceedings with the hope of resolving matters more efficiently and cost effectively.  While SGK’s attorneys are proactive in attempting to assist clients in resolving matters out of the courtroom, they are also highly skilled in representing clients in federal and state courts in Kansas and Missouri and in front of administrative boards and agencies at all levels.  SGK is prepared to try cases and work with clients to ensure their confidence in proceeding through trial.

Working in close association with all practice areas, SGK’s litigation group has the resources and experience to handle complex matters in cases such as the following:
