Experience counts -
Do you want to retain an attorney who is going to learn how to handle a case like yours...after you retain him?
If you need an attorney who knows what it takes to win a trial and is familiar with the local courts and their personnel, you need to retain an attorney at the Law Offices of N. Trey Pettlon
Court has been a second home for Trey for over 16 years. Prior to 1994, Trey gained a lot of trial experience as a prosecutor. He's been in private practice representing people with problems like you're facing ever since. Ryan became an Associate with the law office after serving as a law clerk for Trey's office and then an internship with the Johnson County District Attorneys Office.
Trey and Ryan are both in court five days a week representing people who have similar issues to what you are gong through right now. Because of this experience, we know what to do in your case...and what not to do. We know what is needed to mount a successful case in matters related to criminal defense and personal injury
Skilled Representation for Criminal Defense Matters
Trey has secured numerous not-guilty verdicts before juries in Kansas and Missouri. It takes hard work and talent, but if it can be done in your case, it will be done. If you have a defense, Trey and Ryan have the experience and skills to convince a judge or jury. We have a reputation for handling tough cases and getting good results through hard work and trial skills.
- DUI:Whether it is called DUI or DWI or even OUI, this is the most common criminal offense charged. We will draw from years of experience with DUI defense to help you retain your driver's license, avoid jail time, and reduce your fines. We have handled many, many trials for clients charged with DUIs. Trey and Ryan have prosecuted and defended these cases, and as a pro tem judge, Trey has even presided over misdemeanor and felony DUI trials to a jury and to the court.
- Drug crimes:In both Missouri and Kansas, drug crimes are treated very seriously. A conviction for a drug crime such as conspiracy, possession with intent to sell, drug manufacturing or drug trafficking can result in lengthy prison sentences and heavy fines. If you have been charged with any drug crime, it is important that you take these charges seriously. Speak with an experienced attorney today about your options.
- Sex crimes:Due to the high profile nature of sex crimes, it is particularly important to retain an experienced attorney as soon as you know that you are under investigation. In the court of public opinion, allegations alone can convict you and impact the rest of your life. The sooner we begin working on your defense, the sooner we can begin handling all aspects of your case and protecting your interests.
- Online solicitation:Prosecutors have recently taken a strong interest in online sex crimes, including online solicitation. Law enforcement officers can routinely be found in chat rooms, seeking to identify potential predators. Unfortunately, this means that they are finding many people who would never consider committing such offenses and charging them with serious crimes. If you have been charged with online sexual solicitation, come to our offices today to discuss your criminal defense representation.
- Juvenile criminal defense:Our role in juvenile defense matters is to protect the client, counsel the parents, and advise young clients and their families about the very real consequences a juvenile faces in court. The consequences of a conviction in juvenile court can be even more devastating that a similar conviction for an adult. If your child is being investigated or is currently charged with a crime, you cannot take the matter lightly. Trey has experience as a prosecutor in the Juvenile Division, and both Trey and Ryan lecture frequently on juvenile defense.
- Waiver trials and serious felonies:In some serious cases, juvenile offenders may be tried outside of the juvenile justice system, as adults. We have the experience as criminal defense attorneys to effectively represent clients charged with even the most serious offenses, including felony offenses such as murder, kidnapping, arson and burglary.
Effective Representation for Serious Injuries.
If you have suffered a broken bone, paralysis, brain injury, burns, scarring or other serious injury due to the negligence of another, our injury lawyers can help you obtain the compensation for your medical bills, lost income, pain and suffering, and loss of enjoyment of life. We have obtained payment for clients who sustained life threatening burns, gunshot wounds, blindness and brain damage caused in a variety of negligent or reckless accidents.
- Serious motor vehicle accidents:We represent people injured in car, truck, and motorcycle accidents, working to build cases that result in the best recovery possible. We have handled numerous motor vehicle accident cases involving serious injury and death. Trey has tried these cases to juries in both Kansas and Missouri. Whether your claims can be settled or have to be tried, we can help you.
- Wrongful death:Typically, a wrongful death case can be brought by a parent, spouse or child of a person killed in an accident. Over the years our office has handled many tragic cases involving wrongful death, including the deaths of children and motorists killed in automobile accidents.
- Explosions and burns:These cases involve a number of unique issues. The damages to the person burned are life-long and can be devastating physically and emotionally. You need a personal injury attorney who has handled them before. We have experience representing people severely burned and injured in gas explosions and fires in both state and federal court

Whether we are negotiating with an insurance adjuster or a prosecutor, trying your case to a jury or arguing to a judge, we will effectively protect your rights and interests.
