Attorney

Kansas City

Tim Dollar has practiced law for 42 years, combining civil litigation with a long-standing role as a special assistant prosecutor — a position in which he joined prosecution teams on notable cases including Precious Doe (State v. Jarrell Johnson), State v. Jungerman and State v. DeValkenaere.

Dollar represented the Bresette family following the death of Luke Bresette, who died when a flight display board toppled onto the family at a Birmingham, Alabama airport, resulting in major safety changes for general contractors nationwide.

He also represented Dan Mears, the Kansas City Chiefs mascot seriously injured in a stunt at Arrowhead Stadium, and he is a former Missouri Association of Trial Attorneys president.
