About

  • Hi, I am Deborah Doak
  • When I started out as a lawyer 28 years ago, I was fortunate to get to practice in the personal injury area of the law at The Governor Joseph P. Teasdale Law Firm in Kansas City, Missouri
  • At that time, the Hyatt skywalk collapse had occurred and the Governor’s firm represented several of the horribly injured tea dance attendees
  • From that first experience in helping those injured in a terrible accident, I knew this was the area of law I was meant to practice
  • I knew this was how I could make a difference in people’s lives, especially as this was a time when they needed help
  • Since then, I have broadened my legal experience, in both civil and criminal law
  • I moved to St. Louis in 1984 to be with and then marry my husband, Bob
  • In St. Louis, I went to work at a general practice firm
  • After a while, I wanted more time in the courtroom so I became an Assistant Public Defender in St. Louis County
  • I enjoyed the fast pace and the litigation expertise that I gained there
  • Then I was offered an opportunity to join the litigation department of Selner, Glaser, Komen
  • I expanded and honed my skills in the personal injury practice
  • I worked there for many years before taking my knowledge and experience to my own practice where my focus was to help those injured in accidents receive the compensation they deserved
  • In each of my job settings, I have learned much and worked hard to strengthen my skills and knowledge in order to serve my clients
  • I take my responsibility to my clients very seriously
  • I look forward to meeting and helping you when you come in to Brown & Crouppen
