Legal: Areas of Practice
Criminal Defense
When the government brings charges against you and your life and future are on the line, you need more than simply “an attorney.” You need someone who has been a prosecutor who understands how the system works and how the game is played. Ramsey utilizes his experience as a former prosecutor to evaluate cases and offer sound advice on when and whether to consider a plea offer or proceed to trial. You need someone who will explain all potential paths forward and will listen to your needs and your wants. You also need someone who has actually tried numerous cases. We can help.
Governmental and Regulatory Solutions
You may be an individual or association needing legal help or consulting on where to start with (a) passing legislation before the General Assembly, (b) writing comment letters for agency rulemaking, (c) challenging an agency’s decision to the Missouri Administrative Hearing Commission, or just learning where to start in solving your issue involving a governmental entity at the city, county, or state level.
The Ramsey Firm, LLC has over five years of state and federal government affairs experience. We can help.
Appellate
Ramsey has worked for the Court of Appeals in the Western District and for the Supreme Court of Missouri. He has also written various appeals while in private practice for the Missouri Court of Appeals and for the 8th Circuit. Steven can handle all portions of a criminal or civil appeal on a wide range of issues. When considering an appellate attorney, it is important to note that the skillset necessary to succeed on appeal is widely different than the skills necessary to succeed as a trial attorney. Fortunately, The Ramsey Firm, LLC has experience on both fronts.
Trial Advocacy
You may already have a team of attorneys who are working on your legal issue. You might be a solo attorney who needs support on an upcoming trial. You both might have expected the matter to settle. However, the trial date is quickly-approaching and it is time to start shifting from a settlement posture to a total victory posture. The Ramsey Firm, LLC has experience in state and federal court, trial and appellate court, criminal and civil matters, and plaintiff and defensive trials. We can help.
