Creative And Committed Legal Solutions
A Reputation For Committed, Caring Advocacy
Legal Representation In The Greater Kansas City Area
Personal Attention To Protect What Matters
At Shipman & DeHardt, P.C., in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, our husband and wife team of attorneys — Jay DeHardt and Jill Shipman-DeHardt — have spent their careers helping people through a wide range of legal challenges in the Kansas City metro area (Missouri-side). Some involve their families. Some involve their businesses. Many involve their personal freedoms.
We love what we do because we have the chance to really help the people we represent. When you contact our office, you will speak directly with an attorney — someone who can and will answer your questions, give you a clear view of the process ahead and assertively protect your best interests.

Confident, Strategic And Effective
Our firm handles a wide range of legal matters that involve complex litigation or negotiating settlements — things like family law, probate, civil disputes and criminal defense. Our attorneys never hesitate to fight for our clients, but effectiveness requires more than just aggression. It requires insight, direct attention and a real concern for doing good work. We provide a tailored approach based on what your case requires. We prioritize clear and ongoing communication and strive at all times for the best result in your case.

Real Answers And Real Results
Entering the legal system can seem like stepping into another world. It is full of technicalities, strict processes and potentially intimidating consequences. Getting the system to work in your favor requires an intimate understanding of the legal process and the willingness to communicate with you. This is what our attorneys can provide. We can help you understand the legal actions ahead, confidently guide you through the process and help you find the most favorable option for resolution.
