At Neale & Newman, L.L.P., our roots run deep and our branches spread far and wide. Founded in 1903, we are located in the Springfield, Missouri area. Inextricably intertwined with our community, we serve clients locally and across the globe.
Most of our attorneys were born and raised in local Ozark communities. They excelled academically, and many attended prestigious law schools before returning home to live and practice. They have traveled the world for clients, handling complex litigation and transactional work.
Neale & Newman, L.L.P. is sophisticated law firm fully qualified to handle the most complex transactions and litigation.
But we are essentially a small town firm. We treat clients like neighbors - with courtesy, attentiveness and respect.
Our commitment to cutting-edge technology outstrips most other local law firms. In fact, we rival even our largest national peers in terms of delivering service efficiently. Practicing in the Midwest, however, we can offer rates that compare very favorably against our competitors on the coasts and in major metropolitan areas.
But we also do work for our neighbors - individuals, businesses, professionals and referring attorneys. We handle real estate, business law, banking and finance, family law, litigation, appeals, estate planning and much more. For detailed information about the cases we handle, see our practice areas.
At Neale & Newman, L.L.P., we have been representing business clients for over a century. As a result, our attorneys have a nuanced understanding of the industry dynamics in which our clients compete. We foresee potential conflicts and help our clients avoid them.
Our firm is divided into three, cross-functional groups:
• Business group: Involves transactions between parties, as well as individual regulatory, planning, and preventative measures. This includes the formation of corporations, LLCs, and other business entities, negotiation and preparation of contracts, and representation before governmental agencies.
• Litigation group: In addition to effectively handling disputes that arise between parties, we provide guidance to clients on methods for avoiding litigation entirely. This includes advice on using negotiation, mediation, and other out-of-court methods to resolve business and individual disputes.
• Estate planning and administration group: Preparation of individual and business succession plans and administration of the assets of deceased or incapacitated individuals. This may include the drafting of wills, trusts, durable powers of attorney, and health care directives, and representation in court where appropriate.
The cross-functionality of these three groups enables us to share relevant information and expertise across the entire firm in an efficient manner that benefits our clients.
