Karrie Clinkinbeard Named to Missouri Lawyers Weekly 2025 Business Defense Power List
Karrie Clinkinbeard, a partner in Armstrong Teasdale's Kansas City office, has been named by Missouri Lawyers Weekly to its 2025 Power List for Business Defense Attorneys. She is among 34 attorneys considered by the publication to be among the top business defense practitioners in the state, based on interviews with attorneys statewide, reviews of verdicts and settlements, and archival research.
Clinkinbeard has been included on the list every year since 2021.
An experienced litigator with substantial trial experience across the Midwest, Clinkinbeard focuses on fire, explosion and electrocution litigation, toxic torts and catastrophic incidents, product liability, contract disputes, personal injury and life, health and disability matters. She has tried numerous jury cases to verdict in state and federal courts and also achieves successful outcomes for her clients early in litigation through aggressive, targeted pretrial practice. Her numerous successes include her role as co-lead counsel in a furnace explosion case that generated the largest 2014 defense verdict in Missouri. In addition, she was the first woman to serve as managing attorney for the firm's Kansas City office.
The Power List appears in the May issue of the publication.
