Richard F. Sharrard, Sr.
Attorney at Law
Practice Concentrated in Personal Injury Litigation
Serving Plaintiffs Only
Since 1984 Rick Sharrard has concentrated his law practice in the field of personal injury
litigation. If you have been injured at work or by the negligence of a person or a corporation,
you may be entitled to compensation for things like lost wages, medical expenses, pain and
suffering, and disability. All initial consultations are free. If you hire this firm to represent
you in a personal injury claim the fee will be contingent on a recovery for you--that means if you
don't receive compensation you will pay no attorneys fees.
Rick has handled FELA railroad claims in numerous states throughout the midwest, including many jury trials. He has handled hundreds of workers compensation claims throughout southern Illinois, and he has broad experience in general personal injury claims as well.
