Keith Cutler is known in the legal community as a former president of the Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association and as co-host of the daytime courtroom show “Cutlers Court” and the two-time Emmy-nominated “Couples Court with the Cutlers.”
Cutler said he chose defense litigation because it suits his calm, reserved and even-keeled personality. His most notable matter was accepted for transfer by the Missouri Supreme Court, which resolved a widespread inconsistency in the application of a statute of limitations in his client’s favor.
He said he is known as “a man of my word and a straight shooter.” A member of MODL, Cutler represents insurance companies, charter schools and school districts.
