"WE CARE AND UNDERSTAND"
These words are not hollow rhetoric that simply sound appealing but are, in actuality, a snapshot of our past, and they help to explain why we do what we do. We share in your skepticism of the words that flow from the mouths of attorneys and their websites, and accordingly try to provide our background to impress upon you our legitimate concern and interest in personal injury law. Attorney Daniel T. Ramsdell, the founder of the firm, was severely injured in a serious accident at the age of seventeen. That accident was caused by the negligence of a truck driver. Due to the severity of his injuries and the notoriety of the case, Dan was later featured in television spots and is still recognized in Springfield today as the "17 year old boy" on TV. That early catastrophe became the motivating force behind Dan's lifelong quest to help accident victims and their families.
When dealing with personal injury and wrongful death cases, Dan and his staff understand perfectly well your legal and practical concerns. The firm understands that a judgment, verdict, or settlement will not bring back a loved one killed in an accident or cure a permanent injury cause by the negligence, carelessness, or recklessness of another. However, it can fix what can be fixed, help what can be helped, and make up for what can't be fixed or helped. In addition, it provides a sense of justice that is an essential part of American life, and sets us apart from other countries.
Due to his own personal history as an accident victim, Dan is particularly suited to handle the most horrific and complicated personal injury cases with the care and compassion he would expect of his own attorney. Dan is proud of the assistance he has provided to clients and their families over the years and understands that, above all else, his clients' first and foremost concern is their personal health and welfare.
Dan Ramsdell has been a mainstay of Springfield and the Missouri legal community for nearly thirty years. Over the years, his firm has grown and its composition has changed, but its tradition of caring for client and community service has not.
Dan enjoyed initial success in the law as a criminal defense attorney, traveling across the country defending clients in high-profile capital crime and other sensational cases. Dan also worked as a litigation attorney defending insurance companies, and learned much about the policies and procedures of insurance companies. Eventually, Dan realized that his true calling was where he had started so long ago, personal injury law, and it was during this epiphany that he opened his own law firm and began focusing his attention on personal injury law.
The Ramsdell Law Firm, L.L.C., is staffed by individuals who are outstanding litigators, legal advisors, business consultants, and valued members of the community. The firm believes that the practice of law requires an unstinting dedication both to clients, the community and to the law itself. Attorney Dan Ramsdell and his litigation team are experienced, successful litigators and have compiled an envious record of success both in state and federal courts.
We have obtained a multitude of verdicts and settlements in favor of our clients over the years that we have been in practice. We have also been successful in alternative methods of dispute resolution such as mediation and arbitration. As trial attorneys, we are acutely aware of the risks and costs associated with protracted litigation and constantly seek creative opportunities for the early disposal of claims.
The firm successfully balances a dedication to old-school values with up-to-the-minute knowledge of the law and its potential implications. The well-trained and experienced support staff further enables the firm to provide the highest level of service at a reasonable cost. As a small firm handling complex litigation, we are uniquely suited to provide our clients with highly personalized and responsive counsel. Our experience and highly automated office systems allow comprehensive litigation support with the efficiency and economy not easily achieved by larger firms. We are dedicated to maintaining the highest standards in our work and the results we obtain for our clients.
