DM Injury Law has announced that 20 of its attorneys have been selected for inclusion in the 2026 Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists across Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma. The annual selections, published by Thomson Reuters, recognize lawyers in personal injury practice areas based on peer recognition and professional achievement.
The Super Lawyers selection methodology uses a multiphase process that incorporates statewide peer nominations, independent research evaluations, and practice area peer reviews. According to the program's criteria, no more than 5% of lawyers in a state or region are named to the Super Lawyers list, and no more than 2.5% are selected to the Rising Stars list, which is designated for attorneys who are 40 years old or younger, or in practice for 10 years or less. Candidates are evaluated using 12 indicators, including verdicts and settlements, representative clients, experience, pro bono and community service, scholarly lectures and writings, honors and awards, educational background, and bar or professional activity.
The selection includes attorneys from DM Injury Law's offices in Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma. The 2026 Missouri & Kansas Super Lawyers from the Kansas City office are Michael V. DiPasquale, Jason B. Moore, Blaine E. Dickeson, David Johnson, and Ryan Watson. The 2026 Missouri, Kansas & Oklahoma Rising Stars from the Kansas City office include Hyemin Byun, Devin Glasgow, Ashley Hart, Todd Lucas, Tristan Medlin, Spencer T. Phillips, Michael Propst, Robert E. Simmon, Ethan G. Scherer, Garrett Tuck, Drew Ward, Kelly St. John, and Taylor Sloan. From the St. Louis office, Matthew Sain was selected, and from the Oklahoma City office, Chad Nelson was named.
Attorneys at DM Injury Law have received Super Lawyers and Rising Stars selections in previous years, including 2025, 2024, and 2023. The firm represents individuals in personal injury matters such as motor vehicle collisions, truck accidents, workplace injuries, premises liability, and wrongful death claims. DM Injury Law handles cases on a contingency fee structure, where legal fees depend on obtaining a recovery, and offers free consultations.
Founded in Kansas City, DM Injury Law has expanded to multiple offices throughout Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma. The firm's attorneys have recovered over $1 billion in compensation for clients. More information is available at https://www.dmlawusa.com/.
