Biography Overview

Eric "Rick" Block is an accomplished personal injury attorney and longtime Jacksonville, Florida, resident, the son of a U.S. Navy captain fighter pilot. Mr. Block is a graduate of the Nova University Center for the Study of Law in Fort Lauderdale, earning his Juris Doctorate and starting off a career advocating for those injured by the negligence of others. He's won 202 jury verdicts in his more than two decades advocating for the people — many of those victories worth a million dollars or more.

Prior to joining Morgan & Morgan in 2017, Mr. Block owned and operated his own successful law firm in Jacksonville, representing clients in automobile, truck, and bicycle accidents, in addition to those who suffered brain and spinal cord injuries. Among his wins is a $7.8 million knee-injury verdict and a $5 million verdict for a woman injured by falling vending machines.

Mr. Block is a founding member of the Jacksonville Justice Association, a non-profit organization that provides plaintiffs’ attorneys with education and resources to enhance their trial practice. He has served as one of the organization’s early presidents and board of directors.
