Best Attorney in Worcester !

I've used Rich Rafferty twice for a personal injury and a DUI case. I won't get into the details, but both cases were well managed, handled professionally with the best possible results in both cases. Thank You !

Attorney Rafferty

It is with great pleasure that I post this review of Attorney Rafferty. His services are prompt, on target with favorable results. His knowledge of the law is diverse and well founded. He always takes my calls and if I call after hours, Richard returns my call no later than the next day. With Ric...hard, results are key. He is well spoken, well respected and an extremely hard worker. I would recommend Attorney Rafferty without reservation. His services are on target, prompt and ever so diligent! Rob

Thorough

Attorney Rafferty was extremely helpful to my wife and I during a terrible personal injury case, involving my son. His attention and thoroughness with regards to the logistics and protocol of the process was comforting as it allowed us to concentrate on our son. The settlement was more than fair, a...nd most important, our son was never put in an uncomfortable position, which was paramount. I would recommend attorney Rafferty to any friend, family member or business associate.
