Susannah Evans, a Kansas City native, is a graduate of Visitation Grade School and Notre Dame de Sion High School. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Art History from Boston College and a Master’s degree in Applied History with a special emphasis in Museum Studies and Arts Administration from the University of Missouri–Kansas City.

From 1993 through 2002, she worked in the arts in both the for-profit and not-for-profit sectors. In 2005, she received her Juris Doctorate from UMKC Law School and in the same year was recognized by the Federal Estate Planning Symposium for her legal research project “A Portrait of Transferring Art: Important Legal Issues Facing Artists and Collectors.” Since that time, Susannah has been an independent consultant providing both legal and comprehensive fine art services, including estate planning and charitable giving.

In December, 2008, she was invited to join the firm as “Of Counsel”. Ms.Evans’ addition to the firm allowed it to expand their other general practice areas of litigation, family law and business and tax law, to include her existing art law practice.
