Only good things to say about Richard.

He handled my worker's compensation case quite a few years ago. I found him to be very efficient, and a respectful gentleman. I worked for the Government and never knew there was a pension disability I was entitled to. If it weren't for him I don't know where I would be now. I was so content with my... settlement. I would and have recommended him to a lot of people.

"As an attorney specializing in Consumer Bankruptcy and interviewing new clients most every day, it's not unusual for me to learn that in addition to financial problems, my client has had a work related injury. Worker's Compensation, like Bankruptcy, is a specialized area of the law and therefore it's crucial for me to insure that in such cases,the client has retained, or at the very least been advised, by a competent, Worker's Compensation Attorney. For close to 20 years, I have been referring my clients to Attorney Schwartz. In response, I have yet to hear anything back, but glowing reports from clients, who are more than satisfied with the way their case has been handled. The outcome of a worker's compensation claim can have a major impact upon an individual's financial survival. With so much at stake, it's comforting to know that I can confidently refer my client's to Attorney Schwartz, knowing that he will consistently provide them with exceptional care and expertise."
