Firm Overview

Douthit Frets Rouse Gentile & Rhodes LLC

Personal Injury — Commercial Law — Medical Malpractice Defense

Douthit Frets Rouse Gentile & Rhodes LLC is more than what people traditionally think of as a law firm. What we really are is a combination of three distinct, skilled and highly focused boutique law firms under one roof.

Our nationwide personal injury practice has a primary focus on truck accidents, defective products, and injuries or deaths resulting from motor vehicle defects. Our lead personal injury trial lawyers hold AV Ratings* and, collectively, have represented plaintiffs in nearly all 50 states. They have secured numerous seven- and eight-figure verdicts and settlements for clients around the country. They have collected well over $115 million for our clients.
Our business and commercial law practice is focused on representing entrepreneurs, business owners and small- to mid-sized companies in the Kansas City metro area and throughout the surrounding Kansas and Missouri region. We offer a broad range of legal services to our business and commercial clients, with particular emphasis on business formation, short and long-term planning, and employment law litigation. We offer "big firm" skills and work product with "small firm" service.
Our medical malpractice defense services are provided to hospitals, nursing homes, physicians, nurses, and other licensed health care providers in Kansas City and throughout the surrounding areas of Kansas and Missouri. We can effectively handle all types of malpractice and negligence claims for health care providers. Our malpractice defense team has successfully defended lawsuits all over the Kansas City Metropolitan area and the western half of Missouri.

In each of these focus areas, the quality of the representation and service we offer is unwavering. Clients can expect to be treated with courtesy and respect at all times, to know and have access to their attorney(s), and to find everyone here — partners and support staff included — responsive to their questions and concerns.
