About
I have been practicing law since 1995. My focus of practice is in litigation, family law, and criminal law. I have been both a criminal defense attorney and a prosecutor. I have tried over 100 cases before juries. As a prosecutor, I have prosecuted crimes ranging from driving offenses to capital murder. I worked as an assistant prosecuting attorney in Boone County for ten years where I was the first assistant for five.http://www.columbiatribune.com/news/local/lauded-prosecutor-leaves-for-state-job/article_1322dfb1-5fa7-50bd-b143-d33adac4bf2e.html While working as a Special Prosecutor for the Missouri Attorney General’s Office, and as a Boone County Assistant Prosecuting Attorney, I handled many high profile cases that have been featured on such programs as 48 Hours, Snapped, Discovery Channel and CourtTV.http://www.cbsnews.com/video/watch/?id=7272762nhttp://www.columbiatribune.com/news/crime/jury-finds-tausha-fields-guilty-of-murder/article_8f9c8430-1263-50d7-804d-5fd70b60631c.htmlhttp://www.columbiatribune.com/news/crime/johnny-wright-found-guilty-of-murder/article_7cfb2847-c8ca-5e95-8c1a-062e662c899b.htmlhttp://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2011/01/28/jury_deliberations_begin_in_76_mo_murder_trial/http://www.columbiatribune.com/news/crime/teen-guilty-in-walmart-shooting/article_03b9337d-ea09-526f-b640-7c3237c58e96.htmlhttp://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=1701973 I know firsthand how difficult the court system can be for families.

He helped me through some pretty rough situations. When it comes to finding someone to handle your legal matters, there's no one I'd trust more than Richard Hicks.
Richard is one of the best trial lawyers I know. I have watched him since law school and have tried very hard to emulate him. Juries respond to Richard because he is always passionate and sincere. He is also a gifted communicator and knows how to present his case in a way that captures your attention. I have never hesitated when recommending Richard to my friends.
