Growing up in New York and Pennsylvania, Rick attended the U.S. Naval Academy, graduating with a degree in Oceanography in 1978.

I grew up on Badger Mountain, in Eastern Washington, on a dry land dirt farm in an area the locals refer to as "Poverty Point." No TV. No electricity. No inside plumbing.

He knew what kind of a lawyer I would be: a lawyer for real people, not a lawyer for big corporations -- a lawyer for the little guy...

As a personal injury lawyer, being an attorney and advocate is about addressing inequities and the imbalance of power that exists between individuals and large corporations or governmental entities, usually behemoth insurance companies. I have extensive experience in civil litigation, including torts (personal injury) and breach of contract (insurance bad faith), and find the story of David vs Goliath fascinating.

If I have learned anything during the course of my career, it is that with insurance companies, it will always be profit first. With Lloyd Injury Law, it will always be PEOPLE FIRST. After practicing personal injury law for almost a decade on both national and international personal injury cases, I have purposely chosen to scale back to a solo practice. I am seeking to get back to basics, to develop relationships with my clients so that we can work together to find solutions to their problems, and feel like I am making a difference, rather than just...
