Past Cases -  

Never one to shy away from difficult cases, Trey tried a very important, but difficult wrongful death case to a jury in Kansas City, Missouri in 2007.

Family Wins Over Man's Suicide While Hospitalized

Trey has won several jury trials for clients charged with serious crimes in Kansas and Missouri. In each case juries have found Trey's clients "Not Guilty" of all charges. This is just an example of one that was reported in the Kansas City Star.

Man Found Innocent of Sexual Assault

This next article is a third-less serious.  It's not that big a deal, of course, but one thing it does show is that Trey pulled out all the stops, even when he was a prosecutor....even if it meant bringing huge snakes to court!  As it turned out, the Judge (retired Judge Gerald Hougland) loved it.  Trey's opposing counsel (Nancy Orrick)...not so much.

Python For The Prosecution

Naturally most of the firm's clients would rather that there not be any press in their very personal or maybe even embarassing case. Sometimes it is unavoidable. In some cases, the client does want some positive press after the case is concluded and they are vindicated...especially if they have been vilified in the press at the time charges are filed. Trey has represented clients over the years that were the subject of a great deal of publicity, including cases featured on all the local news broadcasts, the Kansas City Star, NBC's Dateline and even Nickelodeon.  More articles will be posted in the coming weeks so please check back.
