Chris Doskocil: Trusted Legal Counsel Since 1959

Chris Doskocil grew up watching his father practice law and run his own firm, and that example shaped his own path early on. He wanted the same independence his father had, the ability to guide his own cases and build real relationships with the people he represented.

That goal led him to earn a degree in Business Administration from Southeast Missouri State University before completing his law degree at Washburn University School of Law. While in law school, he took part in one of the first law school clinical programs in the country, getting hands-on courtroom experience before he ever held a bar card.

After graduating in 1986, Chris spent three years at a larger firm learning the trade from the ground up. Then he did what he always planned to do: he joined his father's practice. Today, that same firm, now Doskocil Law Firm, serves clients from offices in Fenton and St. Louis. For over six decades, that firm has built a reputation for direct, personal legal counsel to families and business owners across the St. Louis area.

Since taking over the firm from his father, Chris has run it on one simple principle: clients deserve to talk to their attorney, not a rotating cast of staff. When you call Doskocil Law Firm, you speak with Chris directly, not a secretary or a paralegal fielding your questions.

Chris answers calls himself whenever he's not in court, and he has built a reputation for returning calls the same day, often within minutes. That kind of access matters most when you're facing a divorce, sorting out a loved one's estate, or dealing with a contract dispute that's putting your business at risk.

His mission is straightforward: put his knowledge and experience on your side so you never have to face a legal matter alone. Every client gets personalized legal representation shaped around their specific situation, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
