About

Kyle P. Krause

Founder & Attorney — Krause Legal LLC

Kyle handles a wide range of personal injury and civil litigation matters, representing plaintiffs through negotiations, mediation, and trial. He also has a wealth of experience representing individuals and small businesses in contract, real estate, and other civil disputes.

Kyle graduated from the University of Dayton with a business degree before earning his J.D. from Saint Louis University School of Law. After passing the Missouri Bar in 2020, he built his practice handling motor vehicle collision claims and civil disputes in Colorado, before returning home to serve his neighbors in St. Louis — where he expanded his practice areas to include premises liability, workplace injury, medical malpractice, and toxic exposure cases.

As anchoring attorney for Saint Louis University's Trial Advocacy Competition Team, Kyle examined expert witnesses and delivered opening statements and closing arguments in regional and national competition — the kind of trial-tested preparation clients rely on when a case doesn't settle, the product of nearly a decade of mock trial and trial advocacy experience dating back to Mr. Fisher's Eighth Grade Social Studies class at St. Joseph School - in Cottleville, MO.

A competitive challenge-seeker with a passion for helping others, Kyle also serves as Co-Chairman of the Golf Committee at the Bar Association of Metropolitan St. Louis. Outside the office, he spends his time with family, golfing, cooking, chasing down St. Louis's best coffee, and listening to music.
