Siro Smith Dickson PC - Kansas City, MO

Decades of Advocacy for the Underdog

Siro Smith Dickson PC is a premier trial law firm located in the vibrant Crossroads Arts District of Kansas City. With a history dating back to 1975, the firm has spent nearly half a century fighting for the rights of ordinary people against powerful corporations and insurance companies. The firm is led by experienced partners Rik N. Siro, Eric Smith, and Athena Dickson, who together bring a diverse range of expertise to the table. Unlike general practice firms, Siro Smith Dickson PC focuses intensely on two critical areas: Personal Injury and Employment Law. They have a reputation for taking on difficult cases-including complex product liability and sexual harassment claims-and securing significant verdicts and settlements. The firm's philosophy is rooted in personalized attention; they deliberately limit their caseload to ensure that every client works directly with a senior attorney, not a junior associate.

• Product Liability: Holding manufacturers accountable for dangerous products and medical devices.
