A little bit about who I am…

I’m Jeremy W. Richter. In addition to authoring this blog, I am an attorney with Webster, Henry, Bradwell, Cohan, Speagle & DeShazo, P.C., in Birmingham, Alabama, practicing civil defense litigation and focusing on commercial auto/trucking litigation, premises liability, general business liability, and various other aspects of insurance defense litigation.

Writing has long been a source of enjoyment for me, and I have published a number of my articles in various trade journals and scholarly publications over the years. Some of my recent articles can be found elsewhere on the web:
