Tom Carver brings 30 years of experience to the table when he undertakes representation of a client.  Extensive courtroom and appellate experience, especially in federal criminal and serious state court felony cases, has qualified him as a solid resource for those facing serious criminal charges.

            His practice though limited to criminal defense has taken him to a number of other states besides his home state of Missouri and to federal district and appellate cases around the country.  Whether facing drug conspiracy, street crime or white collar criminal charges, Tom Carver has the background and experience to provide quality and skillful representation to clients.

            As a former president of the Missouri Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and active member of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, Carver has kept up to date on the latest developments in criminal procedure and substantive changes in the law.  He has also lectured extensively in continuing education forums and brings the unique experience of being a former member of the Missouri House of Representatives to his practice.  Having also been an assistant prosecuting attorney and the Juvenile Officer for Jackson County, Missouri, Tom Carver has a brand of experience that is rarely matched by lawyers in today’s criminal practice.
