Firm: Melinda Young Law, LLC

1 East 30th Avenue , Hutchinson , Kansas 67502

Practice Areas: Car Accidents

The best way to get to know me is to know why I am a lawyer. I did not grow up knowing I wanted to be a lawyer. There were no lawyers in my family, and I did not even know any lawyers. But, as my mother would tell you, two things have always driven me: standing up for anyone that has been hurt or treated unfairly, and the desire to correct an injustice in order to pave the way for a better future.. Once I discovered that as a lawyer, I could stand up for people that have been hurt and treated unfairly, I knew I had found my calling. I am proud to be a lawyer because I believe lawyers can level the playing field and ensure that everyone has a voice, not just those with power.. I was born and raised in Hutchinson, Kansas. After high school, I left Hutchinson and moved around a bit, searching for my passion in life. After several years, I realized that Kansas was my home and Kansans were who I wanted to help the most. I worked full-time for Bretz Law Office as a paralegal while attending college at night. I received my undergraduate degree from Friends University in Wichita, Kansas.. I received my law degree from Washburn University School of Law in Topeka, Kansas. During law school, I became an Editor for the Washburn Law Journal and a published author. I received the John F. Keuther Award for Outstanding Comment for my publication, Discrimination for the Sake of the Children.. After law school, I returned to Hutchinson and Bretz Law Office. In 2013, Matt and I became partners and we changed the firm name to Bretz & Young, LLC.. When I am not working for my clients, I love spending time with my husband and daughter. You can usually find any one of us performing or participating in local theatre. My husband and daughter enjoy acting and singing. I, however, have the most fun performing improv, although I am not holding my breath waiting for Whose Line Is It Anyway? is call.. I am licensed in Kansas and by the United States District Courts in Kansas, Iowa, Oklahoma, Colorado, Illinois and Missouri. I am a member of the Kansas Trial Lawyers Association and Kansas Women Attorneys Association. I am currently handling injury cases including car, truck and motorcycle wrecks, pedestrian and bicycle injuries, falls and other injuries on another’s property, inadequate security, nursing home, and wrongful termination.

Practice Areas: Adoption

I feel truly blessed that my work builds families.  As an adoption attorney, I like to say that my role is just a small part of a big blessing.  To be the one who says the words to a couple that makes their eyes well with tears of joy, knowing that their life has forever changed, is a gift that humbles me.  (I usually end up in tears too.). I represent both adoptive families and biological parents in private and agency adoptions.  I assist families to identify the right match.  My practice includes services that match prospective adoptive parents and biological parents during pregnancy.  I represent adoptive parents in a variety of other matters as well, including contested adoptions, foster care adoptions, step-parent adoptions, relative adoption, same sex and second parent adoptions.  I am well versed on the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children (ICPC) and Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA).. My practice also includes assisted reproductive technology (ART) and surrogacy law.  I understand the complex legal issues that are associated with ART as well as the emotional decisions individuals and families face when considering their fertility options.  I represent clients in gestational and traditional surrogacy arrangements. I am proud to work with a diverse clientele, including traditional and non-traditional families, in order to fulfill their dreams of becoming parents.. My ultimate goal is positive permanency for children. Irepresent foster families and individuals in private Child in Need of Care (CINC) proceedings to foster the child's best interests.  Disagreements often arise regarding the decisions that are made on behalf of a child in CINC matters, and litigation may become necessary.

Firm: Haight Stang, LLC

10551 Barkley St. , Overland Park , Kansas 66212

Practice Areas: Workers Compensation

My partner, Mike Stang, and I have been handling workers' compensation claims for more than 20 years each.  We both started as defense attorneys representing insurance carriers and employers.  This provides us with better insight into the analysis and approach used by the other side and how to defeat them.. We recognize the frustrations and doubts that arise when a work-related injury occurs.  It is very important to us personally that our clients have a full understanding of the process and what can be achieved.  More than this, however, we work hard to gain the trust of our clients that we will do everything possible to secure the medical treatment and disability benefits they rightfully deserve.  We truly care about our clients and want them to know this both by how they are treated throughout the claims process and through the results we can achieve for them.
