Craig is a trusted legal and business advisor to companies facing complex, high-stakes disputes. For more than three decades, he has partnered with clients to navigate bet-the-company litigation, class actions, and other critical matters in courts across the United States and internationally. Clients rely on Craig not only for courtroom advocacy, but for clear judgment, strategic foresight, and practical solutions aligned with their business objectives.
Craig represents clients in a broad range of commercial and complex litigation matters, including disputes involving fiduciary duties, minority shareholder rights, fraud and misrepresentation, antitrust issues, wage and hour claims, consumer protection statutes, and other state and federal regulatory regimes. He is frequently called upon when the stakes are highest and the path forward requires both legal precision and sound business judgment.
A significant part of Craig’s practice focuses on intellectual property and unfair competition litigation. He helps businesses protect the proprietary information and relationships that drive enterprise value, including through the enforcement of restrictive covenants and the prosecution and defense of trade secret misappropriation claims nationwide. His experience includes designing and implementing restrictive covenant enforcement programs for national companies, handling expedited proceedings, and obtaining injunctive relief when timing is critical.
Craig also has extensive experience in product liability litigation, advising manufacturers and distributors on risk management and defending claims involving a wide array of products—from aviation components and industrial equipment to consumer and recreational products. He is valued for his ability to master technical issues, manage complex expert evidence, and present clear, persuasive narratives to judges and juries.
Craig’s work has been consistently recognized by leading peer-reviewed and industry publications, including:
- Chambers USA
- The Best Lawyers in America
- Missouri & Kansas Super Lawyers
- The Kansas City Business Journal
He has also been named one of the Top 500 Leading Litigators in America by Lawdragon and a Missouri Litigation Star by Benchmark Litigation.
Craig’s practice is intentionally focused. He works directly with clients, remains personally involved in each matter, and brings the perspective of decades spent resolving disputes where the stakes are real and the consequences lasting.
