FRANK BAIR – RETIRED KANSAS CITY RAILROAD WORKER

“We were getting bilked by an investment adviser. We didn’t know anything about investing, but Richard knew exactly what was going on. He took us through a year in the courtroom, and we won the case. Richard was magnificent.”

Investment Losses

By its very nature, investing money can be a risky proposition.Unfortunately, retirees and other investors often discover that their money is at risk because of bad investments made by brokers, financial planners, retirement fund managers and other financial professionals. At The Law Offices of Richard H. Elliott, we work to help clients recover money that may have been lost because of reckless or careless investments.In some instances, investors make financial contributions for years, only to find out later that their retirement funds are in jeopardy because their money was invested in unsuitable investments or the wrong portfolio. Our firm has extensive experience representing victims of investment losses in arbitration proceedings and at trial.In these cases, people need legal representation that safeguards their rights. Contact us today if you’d like to speak with an experienced attorney about a problem involving investment losses. There is no fee to review your case.

Wrongful Death

Accidents do happen – sometimes with deadly consequences.But there’s a difference between an accident and a wrongful death. In these cases, investigations often determine that there were any number of factors that should have been known about and corrected before someone died.Worse yet, there are instances where dangerous or life-threatening factors were known about but ignored.When that happens, it’s important that you have legal counsel and that you consider all of your options.Contact us today if you’d like to speak with an experienced attorney about a case involving a wrongful death. There is no fee to review your case.

Trucking Litigation

The tractor trailers, 18-wheelers and other heavy trucks that roll down our highways can weigh up to 80,000 pounds.In some cases, these trucks weigh 20 times more than the cars driven by people in the surrounding lanes. When trucking accidents happen, other drivers are at a distinct disadvantage. Poor maintenance, inadequate training, and unsafe speeding are just a few of the many ways these dangerous roadway collisions happen.Trucking companies must be held responsible for accidents involving their trucks and the drivers they employ.If you have been hurt or someone you love has been hurt or killed in an accident involving a truck, you should speak to an experienced attorney who can explain your legal rights.Contact us today if you’d like to discuss your trucking case. There is no fee to review your case.

Products Liability

A car. A lawnmower. A baby’s crib.We all buy various products and we all trust that those products have been tested and made safe for use by ourselves and our loved ones. But that isn’t always the case.Some companies rush to get products to market before doing the necessary research and testing to make certain the products are safe for public use. There are even cases where companies know their product is dangerous, but decide to sell it anyway.For consumers, that sort of corporate decision-making can be tragic and sometimes fatal. In those cases, you need someone who can fight to protect your legal rights, someone who’s not afraid to stand up to large corporations.Contact us today if you’d like to speak with an experienced attorney about a case involving harm caused by a dangerous product. There is no fee to review your case.

Personal Injury

Whether it is a car wreck, an injury caused by a dangerous product, or an accident at work, people get injured every day and many times it happens through no fault of their own.Personal injuries can cause much more than just physical damage. Hospital bills, rent payments, car loans and other financial responsibilities can compound the physical pain experienced by personal injury victims.Richard Elliott has handled significant personal injury cases for more than 35 years on behalf of a broad range of clients, including construction workers, parents of injured children, oil field employees, and many others.Contact us today if you or someone you know has been a victim of personal injury and would like to talk to an experienced attorney. There is no fee to review your case.

Legal Malpractice

When you consult an attorney, you expect to be working with a professional – someone who has been licensed by the state and who will maintain certain standards.When a lawyer fails to meet those standards, misses court deadlines, fails to keep you adequately informed of what’s happening with your case or commits other errors, there are legal remedies that can help.Most importantly, if an attorney commits legal malpractice, it can cause harm to you and your case.Contact us today if you’d like to speak with an experienced attorney about a case involving legal malpractice. There is no fee to review your case.

Business Litigation

Most business deals are done with the best of intentions.Sometimes though, what begins with handshakes and grins can deteriorate into finger-pointing and demand letters.Businesses involved in disputes with vendors and other companies need someone who understands the business world and knows how to move a case toward resolution whether it’s in a courtroom or across a boardroom table.Contact us today to speak with an experienced attorney about a case involving your business. There is no fee to review your case.
