In 2005, he made the switch to representing plaintiffs. Mr. Honnold, along with his friend and law partner Kirk Goza, started Goza & Honnold, LLC. After working as a defense lawyer, he wanted to use his expertise to represent clients who had experienced an injury caused by medical malpractice.

M. Casey Rodgers, District Court Judge, Northern District of Florida, to serve on Plaintiffs' Steering Committee, 3M Combat Arms Ear Plug Litigation, MDL #2885). His recent verdict and settlement includes $775 million settlement against Xarelto. Mr. Honnold has been named "Lawyer of the Year" by Best Lawyers for Medical Malpractice Law - Plaintiffs, Kansas City-KS (2018 and 2020). He has been recognized in The Best Lawyers in America for work in Medical Malpractice Law - Plaintiffs and Personal Injury Litigation - Plaintiffs. Mr. Honnold earned his B.B.A. degree With Distinction from the University of Iowa and his J.D. degree, with distinction, from the University of Iowa College of Law. He is a member of the Kansas City Metropolitan Bar Association, Phi Eta Sigma National Honor Society, University of Iowa Beta Gamma Sigma Business Honor Society, Order of Omega (Greek Honor Society) and the Delta Tau Delta Social Fraternity.

As a frequent speaker addressing medical malpractice, trial practice, and product liability, Mr. Honnold is dedicated to teaching how to get the best possible outcome.
