About Matt
Matt Uhrig graduated from the University of Missouri in Columbia, earning a Bachelor of Arts in History in 1995 and his Juris Doctor in 2000. He spent his college years in Missouri and returned to the same law school for his legal training. The academic record reflects a steady path from undergraduate study to the professional degree.
He built his career in the Midwest legal community. Uhrig is admitted to practice in Missouri and Kansas and is also admitted to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri. He has practiced in both state and federal courts. He established his own practice after years of work in the region and now operates as owner of the Law Office of Matt Uhrig.
His work has been practical and hands-on. Uhrig has represented clients in a range of matters that require courtroom presence and negotiation. He has handled filings in state courts and appearances in the federal courthouse in the Western District of Missouri. The mix of municipal, state, and federal work shaped a practice accustomed to varied procedures and deadlines.
People who have worked with him describe a lawyer who prefers clear explanations and steady preparation over flash. He prepares cases with attention to the details that become important under cross-examination or in settlement talks. He tends to keep arguments direct and avoids legalese when speaking to clients. That approach can matter in tense situations when clients need to understand options quickly.
Running a solo practice has meant wearing many hats. Uhrig manages the office, oversees client intake and file management, and handles courtroom duties himself. The Law Office of Matt Uhrig functions as a small, independent firm that handles litigation and transactional matters pertinent to individuals and small businesses in the area. Managing a solo practice has given him a sense of the operational side of law as well as substantive court experience.
Outside the courtroom, he continues to follow developments in state and federal rules that affect his clients. He keeps current in areas that intersect with his caseload. His work remains rooted in the Midwest courts where he began his legal training.
He currently maintains his practice at the Law Office of Matt Uhrig and continues to accept matters in Missouri, Kansas, and the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri. His current practice focuses on litigation and related client counseling.
