Kopit Law Firm Lays Down Roots in Kansas City

• A year on local television, a city billboard, Kopit Cares, and representation for people hurt on either side of the state line.

Kansas City, Missouri, Oct 06, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE — Kopit Law Firm is laying down roots in Kansas City. This year the firm has appeared on local television, put a billboard up in the city, and worked in the community through Kopit Cares. Founder Michael Kopit is a Kansas City personal injury lawyer representing people hurt on either side of the state line. The firm is treating the moment as a virtual ribbon cutting for work already underway.

A year Kansas City could already see

In 2026 the firm has been visible beyond its office at 4520 Main Street, Suite 1000, in Kansas City’s Country Club Plaza. On January 15, Kopit joined Kerrigan on KCTV 5. On September 7, KCTV 5 spoke with him about Labor Day hazards, including rental boats and inexperienced operators. On September 16, KSHB 41 spoke with him about Kansas City’s e-bike rules, including age, helmets, speed, and what qualifies as an e-bike. Announcements and local coverage are collected in the firm’s News Room.

A Kopit Law Firm billboard is up in Kansas City. Through Kopit Cares, the firm works with local organizations, schools, businesses, and community groups. That work includes informational talks about what to do after an accident, along with sponsorships and charitable events, including local golf outings. Kopit Cares is the firm’s community outreach.

During the same period, Kopit was named to The Best Lawyers in America 2027 for Commercial Litigation and for Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs. He was named to Super Lawyers in 2026, after Rising Stars recognition from 2017 through 2024. In 2026 he was selected to The National Trial Lawyers Top 100 Civil Plaintiff Trial Lawyers in Missouri.

The lawyer who used to defend the file

Kopit is a former defense attorney who now represents injured people. He earned his law degree from the University of Kansas School of Law in 2012 and has been licensed in Kansas (2012) and Missouri (2013). Kansas City sits on two sets of rules, and a claim is not the same case on both sides of State Line. He spent nearly a decade representing insurance companies and corporations, and he uses that experience when he prepares a file for the person who was hurt, including the question of which state the claim belongs in. Clients who hire the firm work with him directly. He asks people to speak with a lawyer before they give a recorded statement, sign a release, or sit for an examination under oath.

“The legal system shouldn’t be a contest of who has the deepest pockets,” Kopit said. “I spent nearly ten years defending the corporate playbook—now, I use that exact strategy to level the playing field for you.”
