Get in touch.

One address for everything: [email protected]. Here's what lands well — and the one category I legally can't answer yet.

Press & media

Reporters get answers fast. I'm a J.D. and professional legal writer covering Missouri property law, construction and lien law, and record expungement — including the 2026 Clean Slate law — and I'm available for interviews, background, plain-English explainers, and fact-checks on those topics. Third-generation Lake of the Ozarks, based in Linn Creek. Email with a deadline in the subject line and it jumps the queue.

Speaking & workshops

I do practical, no-pitch talks for trade groups, Realtor boards, chambers, and community organizations — Missouri lien deadlines for contractors, dock and shoreline rules for agents, and what the Clean Slate rollout means for local employers. Twenty minutes to an hour, plain English, handouts included.

Legal questions — the honest boundary

I can't answer them yet, and I won't pretend otherwise. Until I'm licensed in Missouri in 2027, nothing here is legal advice and no message to this address creates an attorney-client relationship — so please don't send confidential details about a legal matter. If your situation can't wait, hire a Missouri-licensed attorney now; the guides will help you brief them fast. If it can wait, the Launch Letter is exactly one email the day the doors open.

Corrections

If anything on this site is wrong or has gone stale — a statute amended, a rate changed, a rule updated — tell me and I'll fix it fast and credit the catch. Accuracy is the entire product here.

No legal advice by email; no attorney-client relationship. The choice of a lawyer is an important decision and should not be based solely upon advertisements.
