On Tuesday, November 25, 2025, the Missouri Supreme Court disbarred attorney Kyle Lesley Warren, effectively canceling his license to practice law in the state and ordering his name to be removed from the roll of attorneys. The decision follows a review of the complete record presented by the Disciplinary Hearing Panel and submitted on the informant’s brief.
The case is entitled “In the Matter of Kyle Lesley Warren,” with case number SC101207.
The court found Warren to have violated multiple rules within the Rules of Professional Conduct.

In reaching its decision, the Supreme Court considered the findings of the Disciplinary Hearing Panel, previous rulings by the Court, the ABA Standards for Imposing Lawyer Discipline, and any aggravating and mitigating circumstances presented.
In addition to the disbarment, Warren is ordered to comply with Rule 5.27, which outlines the procedures following a disbarment or suspension order.
