    Charles J. Andres provides high quality legal services to his clients at a reasonable price. As a solo practitioner, he can serve his clients more quickly and economically than many lawyers with similar backgrounds who practice in larger firms.  He works with his clients one-on-one and brings a personal touch to the practice of law that is often lost at larger firms where clients are shuffled between several attorneys.  He is an experienced attorney and proactive problem solver with a proven track record of successfully helping his clients.  

    Charles brings a valuable accounting and tax perspective to the practice of law.  He spent ten years working for several large accounting firms and gained invaluable tax and accounting experience as he counseled clients and prepared thousands of tax returns.  In addition to being an attorney and having passed the CPA exam, Charles also holds an advanced degree in tax law, which he earned after intense study of tax law and the I.R.S. Code’s intricacies.  Charles’ unique background provides his clients an interdisciplinary perspective that many attorneys cannot offer, as he draws on his accounting and tax knowledge to help his clients with their legal needs.
 
    To help create value for his clients and effectively counsel them with the latest legal and tax developments, Charles is an active writer and speaker on various probate, will, trust, and estate planning issues.  He is the co-editor of the Kansas Bar Association’s probate law handbook for attorneys, chairman of the Johnson County Bar Association’s probate law section, an executive committee member of the Kansas Bar Association’s real property, probate, and trust section, and often answers questions for other lawyers on various points of law.  Charles knows that legal and tax issues can be very complicated and confusing, so he strives to communicate legal, tax, and accounting concepts in plain English to his clients, and used to teach a college accounting class.
