ith its dual focus on personal injury and intellectual property law, The Simon Law Firm has built a reputation as one of Missouri’s most unique litigation practices, as well as one of its most successful: Since the firm’s founding in 2000, it has obtained more than $700 million in verdicts and settlements. Four of the firm’s practice groups have been ranked Tier 1 in St. Louis by U.S. News – Best Lawyers “Best Law Firms.” “Litigation is an adversarial system, but our approach has been never to lose sight of why we’re doing this,” says firm founder John Simon. “We stay focused on our goal of getting the best results for our clients, and by doing that, everything else has fallen into place.” Of the firm’s 12 lawyers, eight
handle mainly personal injury with an emphasis on products liability and medical malpractice and four attorneys focus on intellectual property, including patent infringement cases. The firm’s extensive experience in trying cases is well recognized throughout the legal community and Anthony Simon, who established the firm’s intellectual property group in 2003, notes: “The way we handle cases ensures that our clients will not have to settle a case because of outside constraints or on unfavorable terms. We prepare every case as if it will go trial.” Many of the firm’s members have achieved nationwide recognition for their skill in litigation. This year four of the firm’s attorneys are included in The Best Lawyers in America and
several of the lawyers at the firm have been AV Preeminent-rated by Martindale-Hubbell and included in Super Lawyers. “A firm is only good as its members and we have a tremendous group of people here,” John Simon says. “I’ve been at other good firms but I’ve never been around individuals more dedicated to our clients than those at this firm and that includes not just the lawyers, but the staff and administrative people as well.” It’s an honor for the firm to be a member of the St. Louis community, and its attorneys regularly take on pro bono cases, lecture and participate in continuing legal education in the state and beyond. “Everything we do is with our clients in mind,” says Amy Collignon Gunn. “That’s what we’re all about.”
