I'm an attorney in Kansas City & I've been helping tax sale investors since before I passed the Missouri Bar in 2007. Tax sale law was developing & I was in the thick of it.
I've handled hundreds of tax sale cases in various trial courts throughout Missouri. I've argued tax sale cases in the Western District Court of Appeals, Eastern District Court of Appeals, the Missouri Supreme Court, the US Circuit Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, and the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals. In Fall 2019 I wrote a 75-page industry whitepaper about Missouri tax sales, culling almost all of my tax sale research into one, simplified document. In June 2024 we completed publishing the book version, a 117-page paperback, for sale now ($16.95 + tax).
At the National Tax Lien Association Conference in Nashville, Fall 2021, colleagues from Missouri, Arizona, Maryland, Mississippi & Tennessee discussed the idea of an annual seminar with me. And then I met Billy Richards from Indiana, who's been hosting a top-notch annual seminar in Indiana for many years. The idea fit what I wanted to do. Billy was a great resource as we got underway in MO.
We've now completed three annual seminars with industry leading speakers. Feedback has been very positive. Onward we go - MTSS 4 is Fri 6/20/25 at the St. Louis Realtor's Association building in St. Louis MO. Details are here. Cheers, friends.

Special Thanks
Special Thanks
With gratitude, life transcends mere existence.
I am eternally grateful for my beautiful wife Katie & our 4 kids. Without their love & support, what I have been able to accomplish thus far would not have been possible. You teach me, you love me, & you give me hope. Family first. I love you guys!
Special thanks to my law partner Matt Bessine. His support & guidance are invaluable both in this endeavor & in our practice generally. We challenge each other in the Socratic method & I firmly believe that keeps us sharp.
To Felicia & the rest of the BW staff that props me up daily - you are the engine. You are what makes this thing go. Without you, my life looks much different & not for the better. All of you have been a huge blessing in my life. Thank you for showing up, day after day, to put in the work & do the right thing. You are seen, admired & cherished. Thank you.
Thank you to our speakers! They volunteer their time, talent, expertise & immense experience in the name of education & collaboration. Without your selfless contributions, MTSS doesn't exist. Thank you for doing great work & sharing with us. And of course, thank you to all attendees, I hope you find it useful.
To Billy Richards, the tax sale attorney in Indiana that I met in 2021, big thanks to you for taking the time to talk to me about my vision, for sharing openly about your challenges & successes, & for giving me advice along the way. As you've extended these courtesies to me, I hope to pay it forward likewise.
And last but not least, thanks to my artistically gifted & hard-working cousin Dan O'Donoghue for developing MTSS' branding artwork. If you need a logo or other artwork, I know the very best talent in the business!
