Law Offices of Todd N. Hendrickson, P.C.

04/08/2026

I’m deeply honored to be named to the 2026 Power List for Medical Malpractice in Missouri.

To be included among this elite group of just 22 attorneys is truly humbling. The list recognizes outstanding lawyers from both sides of the medical malpractice bar, and the other honorees include some of the finest attorneys in this field.

Many are friends. Some are lawyers I’ve faced repeatedly in court, and others are people I’ve had the privilege of working with in representing patients.

I’m grateful for the recognition and honored to be included in such distinguished company.

Todd Hendrickson has spent 37 years exclusively representing plaintiffs in medical malpractice.

When is a clear missed diagnosis not a malpractice claim? I get this fact scenario so often, I wrote a blog on what I call the "near miss."

“I went to the ER. They told me it was nothing, or they diagnosed the wrong thing. I felt worse and went to another ER a few hours later, or the next day. That second ER immediately figured it out and treated me correctly. I’m furious. Can I sue?”

My latest blog--it's tick season folks! Untreated tick borne illnesses are serious health risks. They can organ failure and death. Be aware!

As temperatures rise and Missourians eagerly embrace outdoor activities like hiking, camping, and gardening, it's crucial to be aware of the hidden dangers lurking in our natural surroundings—ticks and the diseases they transmit. While many associate tick-borne illnesses primarily with Lyme diseas...

There it is! He’s saying out loud. If he wins, you won’t get to vote again! That’s the plan. The Supreme Court won’t stop him. The only way is an overwhelming loss. If not, we’re going to see the history of the 1930s repeated on American soil. Washington DC? Nah. Trumpistan.

Speaking at a gathering of religious conservatives, Donald Trump said if he's reelected, Christian-related concerns will be "fixed" so much so that they would no longer need to be politically engaged.

Shocked. I thought I was past being shocked by anything that the orange maggot says. But to tell his nephew that “these people ,” disabled persons, gis nephews son, should just die … that’s shocking. Disgusting. And why? Because of the cost. He is supposedly a billionaire. He could pay for that young man’s medical needs and it would be a tiny portion of his supposed wealth.

My disgust for this waste of oxygen is bottomless.

As a Missourian, as a Chiefs fan, as a parent, hell, as a human being, I have one warning to our legislators: Don’t you dare give us your “thoughts and prayers.” F**k your thoughts and prayers!

Give us gun laws. Stop the free carry of any weapon. This isn’t about hunters or sportsmen. This is about mass murder. Not just this latest mass shooting, but the deaths that go on every day.

The rest of the civilized world doesn’t deal with this s**t. Step up and do your job to protect our children, our spouses, our friends.

One person died and more than 20 people were shot after a parade Wednesday for the Super Bowl-winning Chiefs, Kansas City Police Chief Stacey Graves said. Follow here for the latest.
