In a court-tried ease, we will affirm the judgment unless there is no substantial evidence to support it, it is against the weight of the evidence, or it erroneously declares or applies the law. Inv’rs All., LLC v. Bordeaux, 428 S.W.3d 693, 695 (Mo. App. E.D. 2014). All evidence and reasonable inferences favorable to the prevailing party are accepted as true and we disregard any contrary evidence and inferences. Rutherford v. Davis, 458 S.W.3d 456, 458 (Mo. App. E.D. 2015). We defer to the trial court’s credibility determinations and its resolution of conflicting evidence. Id. Issues of statutory construction, however, are reviewed de novo. Bordeaux, 428 S.W.3d at 695. *518Discussion
