Richard Alderman

"The People's Lawyer"

Professor Richard Alderman

 

For more than 20 years, Richard Alderman has devoted his career

to educating the public about the law — on the basis that not knowing your legal rights is the same as not having any.

 

This attitude has gained Alderman, director of the Center for Consumer Law at the University of Houston Law Center, the moniker “The People’s Lawyer.” Through television, radio, newspapers, books, and the Internet, Alderman offers legal information to the public about everything from tenant’s rights to wills.

 

In 1991, Alderman moved to KTRK-TV, Channel 13, where he continues to be known as “The People’s Lawyer” and appears twice a week during the news, providing legal information in response to viewer mail or regarding current events.

 

Also, for the past 15 years, Alderman appears in four to eight programs a year for the local Houston PBS affiliate, KUHT-TV, Channel 8. Each half-hour call-in show, “Know Your Rights,” is devoted to a different area of law.

"I was first attracted to GLO, because of their bundled approach to accounting and financial planning services. The firm has done a lot for me - from tax returns to wills, to pension and estate planning. They are more than capable, and focused on complete customer service. Carl Glaw has tremendous ethics and a passion for giving back, which means a lot to me. It's very unusual to find an accountant that's as multi-talented as he is - no doubt, the best I've seen in my career."
