The Simon Law Firm

What The Simon Law Firm does

The Simon Law Firm (Simon Law PC) is a privately-held plaintiffs' trial law firm founded in 2001 by John G. Simon, headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, with a second office in Kansas City. The firm is structured as a Missouri professional corporation and operates as a family-led partnership, with founder John G. Simon, his sons Anthony G. Simon and Johnny M. Simon, and 14 attorneys in total. Approximately half of the attorneys previously practiced on the defense side, a positioning the firm markets as providing strategic insight into opposition tactics. Core practice areas include personal injury (auto, trucking, premises liability, wrongful death), medical malpractice and birth injury, product liability and mass torts, business litigation including shareholder derivative actions, intellectual property litigation, class action, civil rights, sexual assault, qui tam whistleblower work, and insurance disputes.

The firm operates almost exclusively on a contingency fee model, with no upfront cost to clients and attorney fees taken as a percentage of recovery — pricing details are not publicly disclosed and contract cadences run multi-year given case timelines. Go-to-market is sales-led and relies on direct intake, statewide co-counsel and referring-attorney networks spanning Missouri and the rest of the country, and a content marketing footprint that includes the firm website, blog, testimonial videos, and three original podcasts ("The Jury Is Out," "Heels in the Courtroom," "The Case Doctors") plus community-engagement events such as the "Courtroom Combat" trial clinic hosted at Saint Louis University School of Law. Reported case outcomes include four nine-figure verdicts in roughly two years ($745M product liability, $462M personal injury, $535M personal injury, $109M business litigation) plus a $55.4M shareholder derivative verdict in late 2025, with cumulative verdicts and settlements nearing $2 billion.

The firm has no disclosed technology platform, software products, APIs, AI/ML capabilities, or data assets; competitive advantage derives entirely from human talent, case-selection discipline, and reputational brand built over ~25 years in operation. Revenue, ownership details beyond the Simon family, and detailed financial metrics are not publicly disclosed.
