Richard E. Student
Personal Injury & Civil Rights Attorney
I believe the best results begin with a collaborative attorney-client relationship
and are realized through hard work and perseverance. That is why I take
a hands-on approach to my clients' cases from the start and fight until
their goals are achieved. My focus at Meshbesher & Associates is plaintiff's-side
personal injury and civil rights cases. I have extensive experience in
these areas from the pre-claim investigation, through settlement negotiations,
litigation, and trial. I attribute my track record of success to dedicated
and personalized attention to each case I handle.
I earned my Bachelor's Degree from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio, where
I double majored in economics and philosophy. I then came home to Minnesota
in 2006 and attended the University of Minnesota Law School, graduating
in 2009. During law school, I was a staff member and editor of the
Minnesota Journal of International Law. I am admitted to practice with the Minnesota State Bar, the Federal District
Court in Minnesota, and the Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals.
Since joining Meshbesher & Associates in 2012, I have handled hundreds
of personal injury and civil rights cases, ranging from small but important
claims involving temporary injuries to wrongful death and major civil
rights cases, some of which have gained national media and government
attention. I am more than happy to speak with you directly about your
potential case today.
