About Drew Ward

Drew Ward is a committed personal injury attorney who was drawn to practicing law from a very early age due to his desire to guide people through an often intimidating legal system. A Missouri native, Drew attended the University of Missouri Columbia for his undergraduate degree in Political Science, later earning his Juris Doctorate at the University of Missouri Kansas City School of Law. After graduating from law school, Drew had the privilege of working in a wide range of legal settings, allowing him to gain valuable experience both in the courtroom and at the negotiating table. This included working for multiple firms in Kansas City and Hannibal, as well as an internship with the Honorable Federal Judge Beth Phillips.

By partnering with each of his clients and removing the burden of litigation from their shoulders, Drew strives to make the legal process as straightforward and easy as possible. In his spare time, Drew loves to spend time with his wife Carlie, two daughters, and black
