Jason Cantrell
Partner
Jason Cantrell joins the firm as a Partner, bringing a rare blend of legal, financial, and business experience to our estate administration, and fiduciary litigation practice. He earned his J.D. from the University of Missouri–Kansas City in 2025 and served as a law clerk with the firm during law school.
Jason’s practice will focus primarily on estate and trust administration, with a particular emphasis on complex financial disputes, valuation controversies, fiduciary litigation, and high-net-worth estate matters. His deep background in finance gives him a unique ability to navigate the intersection of legal and economic issues, especially in contested estate matters.
Prior to attending law school, Jason earned an M.B.A. from the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth (New Hampshire), thereafter building a 16-year successful career in the financial services sector. His roles include positions at AllianceBernstein L.P. (New York & Chicago), McKinsey & Company (Atlanta), and Berenberg Capital Markets (Chicago), where he gained experience in asset management, strategy, investment banking, and financial due diligence. Jason's extensive financial experience also includes various roles with Charles Schwab. That experience complements his legal training and provides clients with a strong advantage when disputes involve valuation, asset tracing, or financial structuring. Jason is also a CFA Charterholder.
Jason is admitted to practice in Missouri and is committed to delivering sophisticated legal counsel grounded in financial insight. He is excited to join the team and to contribute to our mission of excellence in fiduciary law.
