Donner Applewhite, Attorneys at Law

I had a great experience speaking with Christian Misner at Donner Applewhite Attorneys at Law. Christian was professional, responsive, and took the time to clearly explain the situation and potential claims in a way that was easy to understand. I really appreciated his honesty, transparency, and willingness to follow up with detailed information. Even in a stressful situation, he made the process feel organized and straightforward. Thank you again for your time and professionalism.

Christian Misner was excellent helping me with my financial situation. He provided a step-by-step guide for how to proceed, and he was friendly & professional. Alyx, their paralegal, was great as well. She did a thorough job at gathering all materials to present to the attorneys. Thanks for your time and effort. I highly recommend Donner Applewhite.

I met with Christian today (2-11-26). He explained my options and what my journey through my case would be like. I definitely recommend him. He knows his stuff

I had the opportunity to meet with Attorney Christian Misner and communicated with his legal assistant Alyx. Both were professional and personable. I walked away from the consult with honest and professional advice. Christian also answered all of my questions and even gave several different options for next steps. Looking forward to working with him (hopefully) to resolve my concerns.

I scheduled a paid consultation about a potential MMPA case and paid $350. I chose this firm because their website states they almost always take MMPA cases on contingency, so I expected that to be an option. However, when the consultation began, the attorney told me he would only take the case if I paid out-of-pocket. The attorney did greet me by name, but he was not familiar with the documents I had already sent. He mentioned he was searching for notes and couldn’t locate them, so I had to re-explain the details from the beginning during the paid consultation. If I had known there was no contingency option, I would have chosen not to schedule a paid consult. I also expected my documents to be reviewed beforehand since they were requested and provided in advance. After the consultation, I was asked to leave a 5-star review, but I did not feel comfortable doing that based on my personal experience.

I had the privilege of working with Christian Misner through VLAA, and I can’t recommend him enough. He was thoughtful and considerate about my circumstances, and I felt genuinely supported at a time when I hadn’t felt that way before. His care and professionalism made a real difference. Having attorneys who value and support the arts is so important, and I’m grateful for his guidance and advocacy.

We spoke to Christian about our concern and we feel that we received some professional legal advise for the situation. I came away from the consultation feeling confident the advice was credible and reasonable. The advice was empowering but rational. Knowing our legal rights and realizing this situation should be addressed promptly. Thank you. To describe Christian, he was patient, calm but very alert and detailed. He was prepared with all the notes and docs. He listened very well to the details and concerns, he provided feedback, opinions and most importantly how the Missouri Law interprets this concern.
