Both of Jacob’s grandfathers and many of his uncle’s are members of labor unions. Jacob represents many union members throughout the Kansas City and Springfield, Missouri areas.

“Coming from a union background has definitely shaped who I am . . . Insurance companies and their attorneys often view an injured worker as just a claim number, but to me it’s personal.”

Jacob learned workers compensation from a young age from his father Keith, who founded Mark & Burkhead in 1992.

Growing up with Keith as my dad, every night at the dinner table I would hear stories how work comp had delayed a case or refused to pay a worker while they were unable to work because of their injury. Hearing those stories really gave me the drive and ambition I have to fight for the rights of injured workers.”
