Best of the Best

I was a client for a divorce. Richard provided aggressive, thorough legal representation from beginning to end. He was very accessible and always there when I had questions. Although I reconciled with my husband in the 11th hour, Richard never made me feel as if I had done the wrong thing or made a b...ad decision. He was very supportive throughout the whole process. He is an excellent attorney and an utmost professional. I would highly recommend his services.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
