About Randall
Randy was born and raised in
Randy began his legal career as a defense lawyer, successfully defending health care providers and some of the world's largest product manufacturers in lawsuits around the country. Over twelve years ago, after defending a vehicle manufacturer in a post-collision, fuel-fed fire case in which two teenage boys suffered horrific injuries, Randy realized that his personal beliefs were inconsistent with being a corporate defense lawyer. Today, Randy's practice is narrowly focused on representing people who were seriously injured and the families of people who were seriously injured or killed as a result of defective products or the negligence of others. Having nearly lost a child to a serious illness, Randy understands and is able to empathize with people who have undergone tragedies in their personal lives.
Randy has represented plaintiffs in a broad array of cases around the country, including the following:
Along with his partners, Evan Douthit and Doug Gentile, Randy has recovered, through settlements and trial verdicts, well in excess of $100 million dollars for his clients. As a result of that work, Randy has been elected as a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum.
Our three lead trial lawyers Evan, Doug, and Randy have been involved in some remarkable cases all over the country.
Evan, Doug and Randy are particular about the cases they agree to take. They only want to represent deserving clients who have good cases and who are in need of the highest quality legal representation.
It's not always about high dollar cases. Often, it's simply about doing what is right.
For example, several years ago, a newspaper article exposed a horrific study from the 1930's in which innocent orphans were unwittingly used as human guinea pigs by researchers at the University of Iowa. Outraged by the revelation, Evan, Doug and Randy agreed to represent some of the orphans who were still alive and some of the estates of those orphans who had died. After years of litigation with the State of Iowa, justice was obtained for those orphans in the form of an apology and a high six figure settlement.
As another example, Evan, Doug and Randy represented the family of a homeless man who suffered fatal injuries when he was savagely beaten by a store clerk who erroneously believed that the homeless man stole a 99 cent bag of ice. The family of the homeless man was denied justice in the criminal trial of the store clerk, who got off with probation and a slap on the wrist. In a subsequent civil lawsuit, Evan, Doug and Randy obtained a settlement for the family, providing them some measure of justice.
Randy is married. He and his wife, Debbie, have three children and they reside in
