About Casey Y
Casey Y Meek graduated from the University of Kansas School of Law in 2008 after earning a B.A. from the University of Kansas in 2005. His legal education came during a period of shifting criminal justice debates in the state, and those years shaped how he went about building a practice.
He completed his J.D. at KU Law in 2008. The program emphasized courtroom skills and substantive criminal law, and Meek carried that training into practice. He returned to northeastern Kansas to build a career rooted in trial work and client counsel.
Meek is admitted to practice in both Kansas and Missouri. He has spent his work life representing people charged with a range of offenses, and he has handled matters that touch on impaired-driving and controlled-substance laws. In courtrooms across the region he has been involved in pretrial motions, hearings, plea negotiations and jury trials. He approaches each file as a distinct problem to be addressed on its facts.
His professional memberships mirror the matters he handles. Meek is a member of the American Bar Association, the Kansas Bar Association and the Missouri Bar Association. He also belongs to the National College for DUI Defense and the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws. Those affiliations keep him connected to colleagues who handle DUI defense and drug-law issues, and they inform how he monitors changes in relevant statutes and case law.
Meek practices at Joseph Hollander & Craft LLC. He maintains a presence in the firm’s Lawrence and Topeka offices, where he meets clients, prepares cases and appears in local and regional courts. The practice handles criminal matters that range from misdemeanor proceedings to more serious felony cases. Meek works alongside colleagues at the firm to coordinate investigations, expert testimony and trial strategies when cases require that kind of teamwork.
Outside the courtroom he contributes to the practice by staying current on evolving rules of evidence and procedure in Kansas and Missouri. He also follows legislative and judicial developments affecting impaired-driving and marijuana-related prosecutions, the areas that occupy much of his caseload.
He currently represents clients in criminal defense matters, including DUI and marijuana-related cases, from the firm’s Lawrence and Topeka offices.
