About

For more than 30 years, Rick Morefield has handled lawsuits ranging from multi-million dollar business disputes to relatively simple auto accident cases.  He has helped individuals and businesses obtain justice in cases involving wrongful death, traumatic brain injury, breach of contract, fraud, breach of partnership agreement, defective products, motorcycle wrecks, auto wrecks, trucking wrecks, and premises liability (injuries on dangerous or poorly maintained property). His focus is on helping those who have been most seriously harmed by the wrongdoing of others.Rick began his career at a large Kansas City area law firm and primarily represented the interests of large corporations and insurance companies in business litigation, insurance litigation and tort defense. He soon realized that his heart was with those who have been seriously injured. In 1993, he was one of the founders of a firm that represented primarily individuals and small businesses.  In 2014, he started the law firm of Morefield Speicher Bachman, LC along with Andrew Speicher and Stan Bachman. Morefield Speicher Bachman, LC focuses on helping individuals and business get justice when they have been wronged by the carelessness, negligence, or bad conduct of others.What makes Morefield Speicher Bachman, LC unique is that the firm not only provides high-quality legal representation to individuals and businesses, but it also provides pro bono legal services to those who cannot afford an attorney.  The firm is committed to providing assistance through legal aid services and also provides free legal assistance in the areas of freedom of speech and religion. Because the pursuit of justice is so important to him, Rick also gives back through involvement with the American Bar Association Tort Trial and Insurance Practice Section (TIPS) where he is a past Chair of the 2000 member Litigation and Trial Practice Committee and serves as an editor of The Brief, the TIPS quarterly law magazine. He has also served as an instructor at the American Bar Association / American Board of Trial Advocates Trial Academy where he had the privilege of teaching trial skills to less experienced lawyers. Rick is a frequent instructor at continuing legal education seminars for other lawyers. He served for many years on the elder board of his local church, plays guitar in the worship band, and frequently teaches adult education classes.Rick has received numerous recognitions from legal organizations. He has been recognized as a Missouri and Kansas SuperLawyer every year since 2005, has received the Top 10 Attorney Award (Kansas) from the National Academy of Personal injury Attorneys, he is listed as on of the Top 100 Trial Lawyers (Kansas) by the National Trial Lawyers, and was selected by America's Top 100 High Stakes Litigators. In his spare time, he enjoys playing guitar, fly-fishing, and trying to master Kansas City-style barbecue on his backyard smoker.

I was searching high and low for help with a legal issue I was having and called Mr. Richard. He wasn’t able to help me himself, but he talked with me and spent time with me, in hopes I could create a plan to move me forward. Many of the attorneys I spoke with told me they would call me back and never did or sent me a letter telling me that, as we discussed, they couldn’t help me (which never happened). I guess my point is he was honest, authentic, and I left the phone call knowing there are human-beings in the world who care what happens to strangers.

I have used Mr. Rick Morefield twice now and have to say I was very pleased. One case was a fatality accident where I lost my husband and the other case was regarding a Financial Company not investing my money correctly and in both cases I came out on top. I would highly recommend Rick and his firm.

Working with this lawyer was a wonderful experience for our organization. We're a non-profit that was faced with an unexpected situation and Richard guided us through with ease. He was knowledgeable, quick to respond, and very professional. Our board was so pleased with the help we received from Morefield and his office. He exceeded our expectations and we would refer him to anyone needing a rock-solid, wise, and reliable attorney. Thank you for your help, Richard!!

With this being the second time using Rick as my attorney, I can confidently say that he and his team are wonderful to work with from start to finish. They were extremely professional and polite and answered every question and/or concern I had (and I had a lot) promptly, while putting in the time and effort to ensure that I understood the process step by step. Rick is trustworthy, honest and very knowledgeable which made me feel confident in his ability to resolve my case. He was able to get me an excellent outcome while also honoring my desire to avoid having to appear in trial. I can honestly say that I recommend Rick to every family member or friend that is looking for legal help and will continue to do so. Thank you, Rick!!

MSB is a fantastic choice if you are ever in need of their services. Rick Morefield and his team were absolutely fantastic to work with. Rick and Lindsay are very knowledgeable and took the time to teach me how the process worked, listened to my concerns and explained things in a way I could understand (often relating things to real world examples instead of talking in legalese). I highly recommend Rick and now know who to go to if I am ever in need again. Thank you Rick!

I am beyond impressed with the service I was offered by Rick Morefield! He is an excellent lawyer, has a charismatic personality, and has actually become someone that I can trust. That seems like a load for a lawyer but it's true! Thank you so much for being absolutely supportive during this stressful journey. There were many times that I wanted to drop the case but every time I would consult with you, my mind would be at ease knowing that I was taken care of. Here we are, a little over two years later, and we won the case! I am forever grateful.

I have dealt with many attorneys in my 67 years including estate, divorce and criminal lawyers, but in my civil case, Rick has been a lot more understanding and caring, he listens so attentively and can figure out solutions to the problems that comes up with doing a great job for us. he is a whizz at negotiating and settling in the best possible solution to his clients problem. His expertise in litigation and civil law was outstanding. He truly did us a great service in our time of need in a no win situation and without him we would have lost everything. We really recommend him, he goes the extra mile for his fee.
