St. Louis Small Business Monthly has named Bharat Varadachari to its 2024 list of Top 100 People to Know to Succeed in Business. Publisher Ron Emeln called the people on the list “bridge builders.” He noted that they are “building bridges that are helping entrepreneurs and employees in St. Louis reach their goals. They were all chosen because they take the steps, every day, to help others.” Tickets for the May 7 awards luncheon, which will be at the St. Charles Convention Center, are available on the magazine’s website.

Varadachari, a partner in the firm’s St. Louis office, focuses his practice on trials involving complex business litigation, including matters related to the defense of insurance matters, the trucking and transportation industry, and product liability claims. He is frequently invited to speak at national conferences on these topics. He has been named an AV Preeminent Attorney by Martindale-Hubbell and has been named to the lists of Best Lawyers in America and Missouri/Kansas Super Lawyers. Varadachari is a past president of The Lawyers Association of St. Louis and immediate past president of the St. Louis County Bar Association. His professional memberships also include Inns of Court, Association of Defense Trial Attorneys, and the American Board of Trial Advocates.
