Scott McCreight

Scott McCreight is a named partner at Ketchmark & McCreight, P.C. and leads the firm's appellate practice and trial court motion work. His colleagues describe him as the most important attorney at the firm that clients are unlikely to meet in person, given that his contributions occur behind the scenes in the form of record-building and appellate preservation during trial. McCreight began his legal career as a federal law clerk for the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, an experience that gave him deep familiarity with how appellate courts review trial court decisions.

He is recognized as a regional authority on insurance coverage issues. He has helped shepherd multiple multi-billion-dollar jury verdicts through the appellate process, working to protect and enforce the outcomes his firm's clients secured at trial. The firm's bio notes that his work is foundational to the firm's trial outcomes even when he is not visible to clients during the case.
