I have been a client with Edelman and Thompson for about 2 years now. I had a work comp case and a personal injury case with them. Both attorneys Michael Downing and Brett Coppage were fantastic and professional. Their assistants were phenomenal as well. I know there's a lot of options out there when it comes to selecting an attorney, but if you want professional, proficient and no gimmicks contact Edelman and Thompson. This review is honest and I wasn't paid for this. I believe good work should be honored and they did GREAT work so I'm leaving a review.

My attorney; Ryan Weltz, who is very knowledgeable and consistent, has great communication skills with his clients and works very hard to made sure that I didn't feel like a number to the law firm. Very nice guy. My father was right about this law firm.
My paralegal; Erika Smiley, was very sweet and consistent as well. Every phone call from Edelman and Thompson was professional.
10/10 will hire again, if necessary of course. Thank you for working hard and staying focused on the case for me.

Edelman and Thompson we're absolutely wonderful, amazing and a blessing to me and my family. Edelman and Thompson team took care of me from day one and still are taking care of me. If I could give more than five stars, I would. Paralegal Jeannie Schrankler, constantly stayed in contact with me through the whole process. I truly don't know what I would have done without them. The matter was already stress enough, and they shared that weight. I would definitely recommend them to anyone that needs help. I am truly grateful to John Thompson, Edelman and Thompson, Jeannie Schrankler.

When I decided to consult an attorney for my injury case, the attributes most important to me in making my decision were ethics, faith, and experience. Initially, I called my church and asked if I could use the attorney they use. I left a voicemail briefly outlining my situation and waited for someone to return my call. In the meantime, I contacted a near, dear, and trustworthy friend of mine for her opinion and to ask if she knew of an attorney in the Kansas City metro that she would recommend. Here, too, I had to leave a voicemail. And so I waited. Within 24 hours, both parties returned my call and left me a voicemail. Both my church and my dear friend suggested I contact Edelman & Thompson Law Firm. In that moment, I was relieved and felt peace about my decision to move forward with them.
During my time with Edelman & Thompson Law Firm, I was fortunate to work with Steffanie Stracke. She has been an attorney for decades and has been with Edelman & Thompson for over 20 years. She enjoys her profession as an attorney. She is married to an attorney. What's more, one of her sons is also becoming an attorney. This is a true testament to her loyalty and love for her law practice. She was professional, kind, efficient, knowledgeable, and fair. She made me feel heard, seen, and understood. The entire staff (from Angela, who is at the front as the receptionist, all the way through to Eric, who works on their marketing team) made my time with them exceptional.
Having to endure a workplace injury was horrifying. Being misled by an employer was devastating. Not being listened to by the outsourced medical care team was frustrating. Being supported and guided by the team at Edelman & Thompson allowed me to have a place in the decision-making process and made me feel respected. Choosing to have them work on my injury case was exactly what I needed to do. Edelman & Thompson are more than injury attorneys; they are injustice attorneys! They will do the right thing in your case for you.
