Hello. I am Richard “Rick” Berman. I am a lawyer and lobbyist of German-Jewish descent and from Williamsburg, Virginia. I have defended heavy metal, punk rock, and goth subcultures from groups who campaign against them. I also have defended hunters, fishermen, lumberjacks, farmers, miners, oilers, carpenters and industrialists alike from groups that campaign against what they do. I have even defended the alcohol, tobacco, marijuana and gambling industries from unnecessary opposition. I am also the founder of Center for Consumer Freedom.
