Great experience

Experience is a huge advantage in the world of lawyering. Rather than have a court appointed lawyer I decided to take a risk with Richard by intuition. He was able to pull strings and there are no regrets. He is also an great person.

Amazing Attorney

Richard took time to explain everything in detail even before I retained him. I called him worried and anxious about my case. He set my mind at ease immediately. I had papers and motions ready to go almost instantly. He’s responsive, caring and can go the extra mile. His demeanor is intimidating and ...aggressive which is exactly what we want in the court room! Highly recommend

Highly recommended

Other than filing for divorce, choosing Richard to represent me was the best decision I have made over the past year. I had spoken to four or five lawyers before I met with Richard and I knew within 10 minutes into our conversation, that he was definitely the best person for the job. He painted a cle...ar picture of what was to come and more importantly, what I should and should not be concerned with. Every time I got caught up in what my ex-wife was trying to get away with, he was very good about bringing me back to reality and keeping me focused on the end result. After all the smoke had cleared, my divorce took less than a year and my children live with me a majority of the time, which was even more than Richard assured me in the beginning. In short, if you are looking for someone to make the divorce process as simple and cost effective as possible, look no further.

Attorney

Richard is such an incredible attorney. When i approached Richard at his office and explained my situation to him, he told me right away that he will solve my issue in no time,that is exactly what he did. He is so reasonable with his charges.I will strongly recommend anyone to him with similar issues....

Lacking repersentation

Hired Richard Martin for my divorce. In my opinion his legal advice was lacking and incomplete. Many unreturned emails, and unreturned phone calls. My divorce lasted many months longer than it should.
