      Biography

      Scott Powell is a dynamic trial lawyer and negotiator who has recovered millions of dollars for his clients. Scott's practice consists of cases involving catastrophic injury and/or death stemming from motor vehicle negligence, medical negligence, and corporate wrongdoing.

      Scott also serves as an adjunct professor at the Louis D. Brandeis School of Law at the University of Louisville, where he teaches negotiation theory and technique to upper level law students.

      Scott began his career representing insurance and health care companies, often helping defend doctors and hospitals. His early success prompted him to leave a prominent defense firm at age 30 to start his own firm dedicated to representing individuals. That firm, now Powell Klausing PLLC, relies on its intimate knowledge of the insurance and health care industries to help clients obtain maximum awards for their injuries.

      Since becoming a plaintiff's lawyer, Scott has been named a Top 100 Trial Lawyer by The National Trial Lawyers organization, and has designated a 'SuperLawyer' by Thomson Reuters, a status bestowed upon less than 5% of all lawyers. In addition, Scott has been featured in publications such as Attorney at Law Magazine, Forbes, and Bloomberg Businessweek.

      While in law school, Scott was a national champion moot court negotiator and represented the U.S. in international competition. In addition, Scott served as a legal intern for the U.S. Commercial Attache office of the London Embassy, where he helped American companies doing business in Europe.

        Mr.Powell was always very friendly and helpful with any questions I had, and kept me informed very well. He took care of everything and I’m very pleased with my results.

        Scott was instrumental in bringing my case of severe medical error to fruition. He began the process by questioning an expert in St Louis and then, we were off. Scott is almost antithetical to what lawyers so often appear to the public. He is compassionate, understanding with a big heart and 100% effort on his cases. I adore this guy and am using him for other legal functions now as well. I feel I made a friend.

        I had an aversion to attorneys after a family member died 20 years ago because of a medical error. Unfortunately situations arise where you need a lawyer. Scott is a very honest, personable and diligent. No matter how small or large your case is, you have his undivided attention and he has your best interests in mind when he is representing you. I will highly recommend him to family and friends.

        Scott Powell handled my case against a national laser spa company. An esthetician caused extensive 2nd degree burns and the company was very hostile toward me. Scott aggressively worked up the case, and the company asked to settle with me before a lawsuit was filed. Scott treated me like family throughout the process. He had a way of putting me at ease through what had been a very stressful situation. I have recommended numerous friends to him since my case and all have had similar experiences.
