Waddell Law Firm LLC - Overland Park, KS

Protecting Consumers and Small Businesses across the Kansas City Metro

When powerful corporations engage in deceptive practices, or when complex business disputes arise, having an experienced trial attorney on your side is critical. At Waddell Law Firm LLC, we believe that you shouldn't have to pay to use the law, which is why we take a personalized approach to fight on the side of the “little guy." Founded in 2010 by Scott Waddell, our boutique firm represents individuals, families, and small businesses in Overland Park, Johnson County, and the Kansas City metro. If you need a lawyer urgently to resolve a contract dispute or address consumer fraud, we deliver the custom strategies and relentless advocacy your case deserves.

Experienced Advocacy Under the Kansas Consumer Protection Act

Kansas and Missouri enforce strict legislation to protect consumers from deceptive practices, including the Kansas Consumer Protection Act (KCPA) and the Missouri Merchandising Practices Act (MMPA). As dedicated business litigation lawyers, we specialize in representing consumers who have fallen victim to auto dealer fraud, odometer tampering, failed auto title deliveries, and breach of warranty under the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act. We evaluate your case to determine if you are entitled to civil penalties of up to $10,000, or enhanced penalties of up to $20,000 for violations affecting the elderly or disabled, helping you place power back in your hands.

Strategic Business Litigation and Contract Dispute Resolution

For business owners and private individuals, a well-drafted agreement is the foundation for any successful relationship. However, misinterpretation can easily lead to a breach. Our contract lawyers provide comprehensive contract dispute resolution services to clients throughout the region. We handle various business disagreements, including partnership and shareholder disputes, subcontractor disputes, confidentiality agreements, and purchase agreements. Working closely with Scott Waddell, business owners receive skilled counsel designed to protect their commercial interests and navigate complex business formation lawyers matters.

Resolving Construction Defect and Real Estate Disputes

Purchasing property is often the most significant financial investment a person or business will make. Discovering structural failures, poor workmanship, or undisclosed defects can lead to astronomical repair costs. Our residential real estate lawyers and commercial real estate lawyers assist clients in holding negligent builders, developers, and subcontractors accountable. We aggressively litigate construction defect claims, ensuring that structural errors, toxic mold, foundation cracks, and water intrusion are fully addressed, helping you receive the financial recovery required to protect your investment.
