Missouri Lawyer's Weekly 2026 Family Law Power Listing

Brian Faucett’s practice centers on matters involving domestic abuse and substance abuse. He explained that he chose the field because he seems suited to it, having been told he is easy to talk to and comforting.

Faucett also serves as lead special prosecutor for Order of Protection violations in St. Louis County, a role focused exclusively on domestic abuse. His Order of Protection cases have involved schizophrenia, methamphetamine hallucinations and, in one instance, people who were actually living inside someone’s walls. “Unfortunately, the most memorable ones are usually the most heartbreaking,” he said.
