Brendan Buckley

“I’m proud to be a trial lawyer and proud to fight for my clients who have been harmed due to the negligence of others. Our civil justice system provides a platform and equal footing for those who don’t have the resources to hold powerful corporations accountable. Whether it’s making products safer for children or getting fatigued truck drivers off the road, I’m honored to be part of a system that protects our children and families.”

Brendan received his undergraduate degree from Rockhurst College (1995) and his law degree from the University of Missouri (1998). After law school, Brendan served as a law clerk to the Honorable Jay A. Daugherty, a Missouri state court judge. He joined Edelman & Thompson in 2000.
