Richard Riley

Richard Riley has two-and-a-half decades of experience helping those suffering from injury and death. After opening his own law practice less than two years out of law school, Riley has handled hundreds of appeals and has written thousands of briefs. He regularly handles complex motion hearings for the firm and its clients, and he often is asked by the Alabama Supreme Court to provide oral arguments. Growing up in a small rural community and doing farm and factory work during high school and college, Riley learned the dangers that the working class face daily. He believes it is no coincidence that many that benefit from Marsh, Rickard & Bryan's services are those who have to work for a living.

“They have to use the cheap products, work the dangerous jobs, have to live in unsafe apartments, and that have no choice but to receive services from the least credentialed professionals. It is no surprise they are the ones getting hurt and killed.” As more court matters are handled through written briefs, Riley's practice is important to the firm's clients. A lover of literature and storytelling, Riley enjoys working with a team of Marsh, Rickard & Bryan trial attorneys to weave the client's tragedy with the law to give the court a compelling document explaining why the client should prevail.
