When you walk into the office of Scott Mann you’re instantly greeted with comfortable chairs and family pictures. In a basketball team photo from the past there’s a determined, smiling young man looking back at us. He may have traded in his jersey for a suit and tie, but Scott Mann hasn’t lost any of the determination that continues driving him forward. Scott is the founder of Mann Wyatt Tanksley Injury Attorneys, which bears his name, but his clients see him differently: “Scott is a friend first and a lawyer second.” It’s a truth that encompasses Scott’s personal approach and the overall philosophy of his entire legal practice. The motivation for Scott’s desire to practice law was the result of his architect father’s tragic death due to an accident: “I felt that if I had the right training and my heart was in the right place,” Scott says, “I could help other families who were going through the same thing as mine.”

Scott was born and raised in Hutchinson, which solidified his strong ties to the community. He received his Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Kansas State University in 1983, and graduated from the University of Kansas Law School in 1986 with his Juris Doctorate. Scott decided to form Mann Wyatt Tanksley Injury Attorneys after a 15-year term as a partner in a prestigious Hutchinson law firm. Scott noticed the majority of Kansas law firms focused on their specific regions and communities. He saw the greater Kansas area, including Salina, was in desperate need of help from qualified attorneys to represent their cases.Mann Wyatt Tanksley Injury Attorneys fulfilled the demands of the people and began serving the larger Kansas region, as well as surrounding states. As a result, the growth of Mann Wyatt Tanksley Injury Attorneys Law Offices has exceeded beyond even Scott’s personal expectations.
