Essex Richards has been serving our community for 40 years, making us one of the oldest firms in the Charlotte area. Since our doors opened in 1976, our lawyers have committed to professional ethics, personal service, and delivering the highest level of legal advice to our clients. Our lawyers dedicate themselves to being more than legal counsel; we have built our firm around the principle that we are here to truly help the clients we represent because our clients are real people, not just cases.
