“As a professional, I worked with many attorneys over the years and Rik was the exception to some commonly held views of lawyers. He communicated well, was on time for meetings, met deadlines, and returned phone calls. No staged drama during depositions or court. Very professional and effective, highly recommend.”

On Your Side Since 1975

Siro Smith Dickson PC traces its founding to 1975 when the Blumer & Nally law partnership was established by experienced trial lawyers, Thaine Blumer and Jude Nally. The founding partners focused their practice exclusively on personal injury trial work, representing injured individuals and their families in cases involving motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, dangerous products, drugs and medical devices, and dangerous premises.

Rik Siro joined the firm in 1985, with trial experience in medical malpractice and personal injury cases and the firm later became Blumer Nally & Siro. Mr. Siro continued the firm’s tradition of representing plaintiffs in personal injury actions, and developed the firm’s practice in Plaintiffs’ Employment Law, representing workers and managers in discrimination and wrongful termination cases against their employers. Mr. Siro also developed the firm’s practice of consulting with management employees on severance agreements, and works as a Mediator in employment and personal injury disputes.
