Why Brooker Law Exists

Brooker Law was founded with a simple goal: to practice law in a way that honors both the weight of the case and the person behind it. That means preparing with discipline, communicating with clarity, and approaching each case with the care it deserves.

Where it Comes From

Matt Brooker grew up in Blue Springs, Missouri, watching his parents — both public school teachers — invest in the lives of others every day. Their impact shaped how he sees advocacy: not just as argument, but as presence, commitment, and belief in someone’s future.

What Guides the Work

After nearly two decades in litigation, Matt built this firm around the values that have guided him all along: show up prepared, lead with integrity, and fight for the outcome that aligns with what matters most to each client.

Monnat & Spurrier, Chartered exists to win each client’s case through relentless thought, action, courage and care. These are the words we live by...

Thought

It is midnight or 4:00 a.m.  There, in the faint blue glow of the computer screen, is the Monnat & Spurrier lawyer quietly plying the disciplined study, long range strategizing and innovation that launches the action of all successful courtroom battles. Since its genesis, the firm has recognized the risk of the busy trial lawyer, scrambling from one courtroom to another without time for long range planning, investigation or research. By limiting the number of cases we accept and always employing at least one legal scholar who does nothing but legal research and writing, Monnat & Spurrier avoids the traps that can sidetrack the courtroom win.

Action

Monnat & Spurrier lawyers are trial lawyers who regularly try “bet your life” cases to juries throughout the state of Kansas. Monnat & Spurrier lawyers do not count on quick plea bargains or “snitch” deals. Monnat & Spurrier lawyers are more likely out in the alley with a private eye looking for evidence or in the courthouse litigating creative motions and trying cases to juries.

Courage

Monnat & Spurrier lawyers strive to emulate the courage of the Nation’s founding fathers. We do so by embracing the opportunity to provide every accused - from the man, woman or child next door to the unpopular person, company or cause - the right to jury trial guaranteed by the Constitution. We do so by confronting unjust practices, procedures and people with the latest innovations of the law, science and technology. We do so by fighting whomever we need to fight to achieve justice for our client.

Care

Monnat & Spurrier lawyers know that if we want the jury to care about our client, the lawyer and law firm must care about the client too. Thus, the client, the client’s family and everyone at Monnat & Spurrier will spend countless hours together learning to know and understand each other so that, together, we can help the jury understand us and why our client should win the case on trial. We know that we stand with other human beings during some of the darkest hours of their lives. We want to bring to that moment the humanity, understanding and enlightenment the client deserves.

Relentlessly, we live by these words: Thought, Action, Courage and Care.
