About
Brian is passionate about protecting his clients and forcing defendants to take responsibility for the harm they cause. He loves finding new ways to get better results and making sure that people are treated fairly by insurance companies. He provides straightforward and honest advice that helps clients make the best of their situation. Originally from St. Louis, Missouri, Brian and partner Matt Meyerkord went to high school together. After graduating from Mizzou in 2002, he was motivated by the events of September 11th to enlist in the U.S. Army. He attended basic training and then went to Officer Candidate School, where he was commissioned as a second lieutenant and assigned to the infantry. He deployed to Iraq for 14 months during Operation Iraqi Freedom and served as a rifle platoon leader. After nearly four years in the military, Brian was honorably discharged and attended law school at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. He fell in love with Kansas City and chose to make it his home after graduating in 2010. He partnered with Matt Meyerkord in early 2012 and two years later they partnered with Nick Hergott to form Meyerkord, Russell & Hergott. The legal process can be confusing and intimidating. Brian enjoys helping his clients understand the process so they can make good decisions. He takes pride in fighting for people that are hurt and vulnerable because of someone else’s carelessness.
