Founded in 1909, Lewis Rice is proud to have served its communities for more than a century. We maintain four offices in the St. Louis area: in downtown, suburban Town & Country, Washington, Missouri and Edwardsville, Illinois, and two offices in the Kansas City area: in downtown and suburban Overland Park, Kansas. The Firm enjoys a strong historical foundation and reputation, as well as the size and resources to serve the demanding and ever-changing needs of today's business community. With more than 150 lawyers practicing in all of the major legal specialty areas, Lewis Rice LLC is one of the leading regional law firms in the Midwest.

The Firm's litigation department regularly advises a broad spectrum of clients through the litigation process, from discovery to resolution by settlement or trial. We represent clients in all types of commercial disputes at all levels of complexity. We handle claims brought under general contract, business tort, securities, intellectual property, environmental and maritime laws; federal and state employment statutes and theories; antitrust theories; insurance policies; lender, products and professional liability; and class action representations.

The extensive courtroom experience of our attorneys is indispensable when advising clients in regards to proposed or threatened litigation. We also regularly explore alternatives to traditional litigation, such as arbitration and mediation, as we believe that these strategies often serve the best interest of our clients. When necessary, our appellate practice group, consisting of former appellate clerks, represents clients in federal and state appellate courts across the nation.
