Quinn joined the Benson Law Firm in August 2022. After graduating from law school at the University of Missouri-Kansas City in May 2020, Quinn clerked for the Honorable W. Douglas Thomson at the Missouri Court of Appeals, Western District in Kansas City, Missouri.

During law school, Quinn gained a wide-range of experience in both civil and criminal law. In 2018, he clerked for Langdon & Emison in Lexington, Missouri, a firm specializing in personal injury and mass torts. Quinn later interned in 2019 and 2020 with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Missouri and the Jackson County Prosecutor’s Office, respectively.

Quinn was born and raised here in Kirksville, Missouri.  He graduated from Kirksville High School in 2013.  That same year, Quinn started his undergraduate studies at the University of Missouri – Columbia.  There, Quinn was a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity.  In 2016, Quinn took his studies abroad to the University of Sydney in Sydney, Australia.  He graduated from the University of Missouri in 2017 with a major in English and a minor in Sociology.

In September 2022, Quinn was selected by the Missouri Bar to the 2022-2023 Missouri Bar Leadership Academy.  The Leadership Academy’s mission is to recruit, train, and retain Missouri lawyers who have been admitted for ten years or less for leadership positions in the Missouri Bar.  The Academy anticipates that bringing in attorneys from underrepresented areas will broaden and strengthen the Missouri Bar.
