Scott McCreight is widely recognized for his appellate advocacy, litigation strategy, and deep knowledge of insurance coverage law. He has played a critical role in complex and high-exposure litigation involving catastrophic injury, wrongful death, and business disputes.

McCreight is frequently called upon to handle appellate and post-trial strategy in nationally significant cases, including defending major jury verdicts through the appeals process. His ability to analyze complex legal issues, preserve trial victories, and identify available insurance coverage has made him an integral part of the firm’s litigation team.

He began his legal career as a federal law clerk for the United States Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit, experience that continues to shape his approach to briefing, legal analysis, and appellate advocacy. Lawyers throughout the region regularly turn to McCreight for insight on difficult legal and insurance issues arising in high-stakes litigation.

As trial lawyers know, obtaining a significant verdict is only part of the battle. Preserving that result on appeal and positioning it for collection requires a different level of legal strategy and precision — an area where McCreight’s experience and judgment are particularly valuable.
