Law Offices of James P. Deffet LLC | Criminal Defense in Smithville, MO (h1)

Law Offices of James P. Deffet LLC is located at 212 W. Main Street, Smithville, Missouri 64089, and can be reached at (816) 532-2345 during regular business hours or by appointment. Attorney James P. Deffet founded the practice in 2002 after working both as a prosecutor and as counsel for insurance companies, experience that now informs how he evaluates cases from the opposing side’s perspective.

The firm handles Missouri state misdemeanors and felonies, including theft, assault, driving while intoxicated, and drug-related charges, alongside a personal injury practice covering car, truck, and motorcycle collisions. Deffet keeps his caseload deliberately small so that he can handle client matters personally rather than delegating them to paralegals or associates, an approach the firm describes as “friendly, but fearless” in negotiations and, when necessary, at trial.

That direct, low-volume model of practice, built on more than two decades of experience since founding the firm, has positioned Deffet as a hands-on advocate in Clay County and the surrounding Smithville community, where clients deal with the same attorney from intake through resolution.
