A 60+ year legacy of fighting for the injured in St. Louis
John L. Wilbers is the managing attorney of The Wilbers Law Firm LLC, continuing a family tradition of legal excellence that spans over six decades. Based in the heart of Clayton, St. Louis, John has dedicated his career to fighting for individuals and families who have been injured through no fault of their own.
What sets John apart from other personal injury attorneys? His father, L.H. "Bud" Wilbers, founded the firm in 1958 — originally defending insurance companies. That insider perspective gave John an unparalleled understanding of how insurance companies think, strategize, and try to minimize payouts. When John took over and pivoted the firm to plaintiff-side personal injury work, he brought that knowledge with him.
The result? An attorney who knows exactly how the other side operates — and exactly how to beat them.
John's approach is built on two pillars: zealous advocacy and genuine compassion. He fights aggressively to maximize every client's recovery while ensuring they feel supported, informed, and cared for throughout the entire process. At The Wilbers Law Firm, you're never just a case number — you're family.

At The Wilbers Law Firm, we believe that every injured person deserves a voice — and a fighter. Insurance companies have teams of lawyers working to pay you as little as possible. We level the playing field.
We take cases on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay absolutely nothing unless we win your case. We do this because we believe access to justice shouldn't depend on your bank account.
