Trina Ricketts

Skilled and Strategic in Employment Litigation

Our company retained Trina Ricketts at Ogletree Deakins when we were facing a complex wrongful termination lawsuit in Kansas City. From our initial consultation, it was clear that her recognition in Employment Law - Management and Litigation - Labor and Employment by Best Lawyers was well-deserved. Trina demonstrated a deep, practical understanding of Missouri employment law that comes from her years of focused practice. She developed a nuanced strategy that addressed not just the legal claims but also the underlying workplace dynamics, which was invaluable. Her analysis was sharp, and her guidance during depositions was particularly effective. We achieved a very favorable settlement that protected our business interests completely. The only minor critique would be that during the busiest phases, response times to non-urgent emails could occasionally stretch to a day or two, but her team was always proactive in managing communications. For any business navigating the complexities of labor and employment law in the region, Trina’s expertise from the University of Missouri School of Law is a significant asset. We would confidently engage her services again.
