Kansas City Personal Injury Lawyer
Overview
Brett Davis is a trial attorney who fights for people who have suffered serious personal injuries and victims of discrimination at work. In short, Brett believes that people who have been harmed by the wrongdoing of others deserve a voice, and he feels privileged by the opportunity to zealously provide that voice. He also believes it important to connect with clients as real people and strives to provide support and understanding through what are often tragic and emotionally difficult situations.
In a career now spanning more than 20 years, Brett has tried lawsuits in state and federal courts in Missouri and Kansas, and has also been lead counsel in several arbitration hearings. Brett has successfully litigated a wide range of cases, including sexual harassment, truck and automobile accidents, nursing home malpractice, racial harassment and discrimination, injuries resulting from negligence in the work place, medical malpractice, premises liability, age discrimination, disability discrimination, unlawful retaliation, wage and hour violations, constitutional violations and others. Throughout his career, Brett has recovered many millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts for his clients.
Brett has been recognized as a Missouri & Kansas Super Lawyer in 2008 and 2011 - 2014.
Prior to forming Davis George Mook, Brett was a partner for many years with the plaintiff's law firm of Davis, Ketchmark & McCreight and its variations. While there, Brett was co-trial counsel in what was then the largest age discrimination jury verdict in the state of Missouri, and he also played a key role in the handling of over 100 wrongful death cases against Robert Courtney, the Kansas City pharmacist who diluted chemotherapy drugs. Before focusing his practice entirely on helping injured people, Brett started his career with a large Kansas City defense firm, which provided him valuable insight into how insurance companies and large corporations operate.
Brett graduated from the UMKC School of Law in 1992, where he received honors and was selected to Law Review. Brett obtained his undergraduate degree in Social Sciences from Emporia State University in 1988, where he earned his way through school with a 4 year varsity football scholarship and played in the 1987 National Championship Playoffs.
Raised in Topeka, Kansas, Brett has called Kansas City home for more than 25 years. In his spare time, Brett enjoys spending time with family and friends, taking his dogs to the park, and listening to and playing as much music as possible.
