Trial Practice

Kansas City, Kansas Trial Lawyer

Most attorneys boast about their ability to quickly settle a criminal matter to save time and money. However, when trial becomes their only option, these other lawyers may be woefully unprepared and too inexperienced to try your case. At The Law Office of James L. Spies, P.A. in Kansas City, Kansas, I have litigated numerous federal and state trials and have built a solid reputation as a skilled trial lawyer.

Included in my 12 years of experience as a practicing attorney I spent six years as a prosecutor. During that time, I gained first-hand experience in prosecuting high level violent crimes like murder, rape, and child abuse. In my private practice as a trial lawyer, I have gone to trial many times and have secured many verdicts in favor of my clients. In total, as both a prosecutor and defense attorney, I have handled over 50 serious criminal jury trials with an excellent rate of success. That experience is not commonplace among criminal defense lawyers and can benefit my clients charged with serious crimes, including:

• Federal crimes
• Drug charges
• Sex offenses/child abuse
• Violent crimes/murder charges
• Domestic violence
• White collar crime/identity theft
• DUI

At The Law Office of James L. Spies, P.A., I recognize that a plea bargain is sometimes the best option you have based on the case the prosecution has built against you. However, when a plea bargain does not provide the best outcome, I bring my wealth of experience as a trial lawyer to advocate for you. I will not hesitate to take a case to trial if the evidence presented against you is weak or your rights were violated in any way. My knowledge, experience, and diligence can provide you with the representation you need to fight any criminal charge you are facing.
