KDDK Partner G. Michael Schopmeyer has been recognized by The Best Lawyers in America© for nearly two decades across multiple practice areas.

Schopmeyer has nearly 40 years’ experience practicing as a business attorney, with his whole career at KDDK. His skills center on closing and resolving business, construction, environmental, and real and intellectual property deals and disputes. Honed from service as a private practitioner, government attorney, arbitrator, and civic leader, Schopmeyer’s financial acumen empowers clients to more swiftly reach durable solutions. As a result, he delivers economic advantages for our clients. Schopmeyer’s goal in attending law school was not to practice law, but to be an in-house corporate attorney. What he found at KDDK was joy in serving a more diverse group of business clients in a broad spectrum of industries. This keeps Schopmeyer motivated in the private practice of law.
Each year, Best Lawyers conducts an extensive peer-review process to compile a list of the best attorneys in a broad range of practice areas based on peer feedback from across the region.
