Clayton
Jay Nixon knows how to successfully navigate and resolve complex, high-stakes disputes. He is a former state senator, four-term attorney general and two-term governor.
As an attorney in private practice, his work involves advising businesses and counseling on public policy. Appellate work makes up about half of his practice, and his arguments have earned favorable decisions from both Missouri Court of Appeals and the Missouri Supreme Court.
In a notable case, he won a suit in the Supreme Court to get regulatory permission for a 780-mile power line that would carry wind-generated electricity through northern Missouri.
