Rachel Swenson joined Richmond Vona in 2026 as a Litigation Paralegal, bringing experience in legal claims handling and a deep commitment to supporting people through difficult times. She focuses on case management and litigation support, bringing hard work and genuine care to every client she serves.
Born and raised in Buffalo, Rachel earned her bachelor’s degree from the University at Buffalo. Early in her career, she worked with animals before transitioning to law when the opportunity to work at a law firm presented itself. She spent time at a small firm handling no-fault claims, an experience that gave her a strong foundation in legal operations and case handling.
Rachel chose to move into personal injury law because she wanted to help people and was looking for a new challenge. Personal injury law gives her the opportunity to be there for people during their most difficult times. She believes that travel teaches patience and respect, giving you a wider perspective of the world and helping you see people for who they are. She brings that same openness and respect to her work at Richmond Vona, understanding that every client has a unique story and deserves to be heard.
At Richmond Vona, Rachel strives to be there for clients throughout their time with the firm, combining her litigation experience with a genuine commitment to supporting people when they need it most. She is passionate about helping others and bringing that commitment to every case.
