History of Our Award-Winning Law Firm

The law firm that is now Bartimus Frickleton Robertson Rader first opened its doors in 1977. The firm quickly became a force in the medical malpractice field. In the 1980s, the firm expanded its practice, becoming recognized as one of the top trial firms for personal injury in the area.

Since then, our team of personal injury attorneys has continued to build upon that reputation, including being selected to participate in the State of Missouri’s tobacco litigation in the 1990s. That case resulted in a record recovery for the state. For the past several decades, our personal injury law firm has handled all types of critical, complex cases and achieved record-setting verdicts, settlements and victories on appeal.
