Danna McKitrick, P.C. is pleased to announce that attorney Ruth A. Binger has been named to Missouri Lawyers Weekly’s 2025 Top 100 POWER List. The annual distinction recognizes the most influential attorneys across Missouri and bordering metro areas, selected through an editorial review of hundreds of POWER List profiles published throughout the year.

According to Missouri Lawyers Weekly, the Top 100 list represents the “cream of the crop” among attorneys whose work consistently shapes their practice areas and the broader legal landscape. The editorial team evaluates significant matters, statewide impact, professional leadership, and long-term influence when determining which attorneys rise to the Top 100 level.

This recognition builds on Ruth’s longstanding presence on Missouri Lawyers Weekly’s POWER Lists. She has been named to the Mergers & Acquisitions POWER List in 2023, 2024, and 2025, reflecting her sustained leadership in complex transactional matters. In 2022, she was also honored with an ICON Award, which recognizes individuals with a long-standing commitment to the Missouri legal community.

Ruth serves as president of Danna McKitrick and leads the firm’s transactional practice. Her work centers on advising entrepreneurs and businesses ranging from closely held and family-owned companies to multinational organizations operating in manufacturing and distribution, professional services, transportation, and retail. Clients rely on her for strategic counsel across corporate transactions, intellectual property, digital law, and employment-related business matters, particularly when navigating high-stakes decisions that affect long-term growth and stability.

Throughout her career, Ruth has been recognized for her technical skill and practical guidance. Her approach emphasizes grounded strategy, careful risk management, and alignment with each client’s broader business objectives.

“Ruth’s inclusion on the Top 100 POWER List reflects the depth of her influence both within our firm and across Missouri’s business and legal communities,” said attorney Mike McKitrick, of Danna McKitrick, P.C. “Her leadership, decisive judgment, and character have made a lasting impact on our firm and the clients we serve.”

Ruth earned her law degree from DePaul University in 1983 and has spent decades building a practice grounded in thoughtful counsel, professional integrity, and sustained client relationships.
