- 913-934-NEED (Kansas)
- 816-934-NEED (Missouri)
Faith-Informed Legal Advocacy
Although his law firm doesn’t market itself as Christian, Jerry’s faith subtly informs his work. He prays with clients when asked and operates with deep empathy—qualities that carried over from his ministry days.
Legal Excellence Rooted in Experience
Jerry has represented over 1,000 clients and isn’t afraid to take on the hard cases.
Wallentine Law also employs a medical expert with ER experience to ensure clients’ injuries are properly understood and valued.
Challenges in the Legal Landscape
From Zoom trials that lack jury-connection cues to outdated policy limits set back in 1984, Jerry sees a legal system in need of modernization. He’s also concerned about how AI and autonomous vehicles will affect liability law in the future.
Key Advice for Accident Victims
- Seek medical attention immediately—adrenaline can hide injuries.
- Contact a lawyer early to avoid missing deadlines.
- Know your jurisdiction—jury awards vary drastically between counties.
A Mission of Helping Others
Jerry Wallentine’s story is about more than legal wins—it’s about helping people through some of the hardest moments of their lives. Whether guiding clients through medical bills or advocating in court, his work reflects a deeper commitment to justice and integrity.
