History

Established in 2011.

Owner and Founder: Elizabeth Sharp Lynch, a/​k/​a Betsy Lynch, is originally from Sikeston, Missouri, a small town in the Bootheel of Missouri. Born and raised a Missourian, she graduated from Westminster College in 2002 with a Bachelor of Arts in Business emphasizing Finance. She received her Juris Doctorate from the University of Missouri-​Kansas City in 2005. While clerking for the Honorable Robert L. Trout, an Associate Circuit Judge in Jackson County, she gained experience with landlord-​tenant matters, collection suits, small claims matters, county ordinance violations, and civil trials. She left the clerkship in 2007 to practice bankruptcy law at a small law firm in Kansas City. In 2011, in an effort to have more flexible working hours, she, like many of her clients, opened her own business where she currently practices business law, debtor/​creditor rights, and bankruptcy law.
