About R. Scott
R. Scott Pecher earned his law degree from the University of Missouri - Kansas City School of Law in 2008 after completing a bachelor’s degree at the University of Missouri - St. Louis in 2005. His legal training spanned both classroom work and practical experiences that prepared him for courtroom and counsel work in state and federal settings. Pecher's academic record places him among lawyers who moved directly into active practice following law school.
He entered private practice and by 2017 served as an associate at Klar, Izsak & Stenger, L.L.C. During his time there he worked on a range of matters handled by the firm and gained experience in the procedural and substantive demands of litigation and client counsel. That role exposed him to the rhythm of case preparation, motion practice and client meetings in a small-firm environment.
Pecher is admitted to practice in Illinois and Missouri and is also admitted in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri and the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Missouri. He holds current memberships in The Missouri Bar and the Illinois State Bar Association. Those admissions and memberships reflect a practice that crosses state and federal lines and requires fluency in differing court rules and local procedures.
Colleagues describe him as pragmatic in approach and methodical in courtroom preparation. He has combined private-firm experience with courthouse appearances to build a practice that addresses legal matters in the jurisdictions where he is licensed. Pecher’s background in both Missouri and Illinois practice settings gives him familiarity with regional legal issues and the practical demands of handling cases in both state and federal tribunals.
He maintains an office under his own name, R. Scott Pecher, Lawyer at Law. From that office he accepts and handles matters in the jurisdictions to which he is admitted. His current practice focuses on legal matters brought in Illinois and Missouri and in the Eastern and Western Districts of Missouri, where he is authorized to appear.
