In this episode of Lawyers Who Care, host Andrew Samalin sits down with Elliott Buckner, partner at Cantor, Grana, Buckner & Bucci in Richmond, Virginia. Elliott has built a career representing clients in catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death cases, taking on some of the toughest legal battles with compassion and determination.
Elliott shares how an early career shift from defense work to plaintiff representation changed his path—and why caring deeply for clients is at the heart of everything he does. From tracking down a mother in Saudi Arabia to serving someone on a sailboat in the Caribbean, his cases are anything but ordinary. Most importantly, Elliott discusses the profound impact he has had on families facing unimaginable loss and why empathy is just as essential as legal expertise.
🎙️ Lawyers Who Care highlights attorneys who go above and beyond for their clients. Tune in to hear Elliott’s journey, the values that drive his practice, and the powerful reminder that the best lawyers aren’t just knowledgeable—they care deeply.
