Long drawn out divorce

I hired Rick to help me finish my divorce, after battling with my ex for over 2 years and going no where. Exhausted from the process, but so glad to have have had Rick and His paralegal Isabel on my side. Rick is organized, calm, patient and intelligent. He explained things in ways I was forced to... understand and helped me feel confident in the decisions I was making. He answered all my questions in a kind response, promptly responded to my many emails. He moved the process along and finally got me an end I was happy and content with. Rick comes highly recommended by me!

Prenuptial Agreement and Divorce Counseling

I obtained the legal services of Rick Richardson to draw up a Prenuptial Agreement originally. After 15 years of Marriage , the decree held up with three different Attorneys attempting to break it up. I hired Rick to consult with during the one year long Mediation process. His excellent counseling ...helped me considerably to a more positive outcome. I would recommend Rick highly for his work. Scott.

Came highly recommended: I now know why!

After asking around my home town, Rick Richardson (and his firm) came very highly recommended to me by several different reputable/ professional people. After meeting with him for the first time, I immediately could see why. He clearly knows his field of law, and is very good about explaining it to t...he common layperson (in friendly and forthright manner). Rick has represented me in what has turned out to be an exceptionally difficult and challenging divorce, and I am so grateful I picked him as my attorney. He has been polite, prompt, informative, dedicated, kind, compassionate, smart, swift, sincere and successful. He has excellent communication skills, and a good sense of humor. Additionally, Rick is very hard working, has good people skills and is intelligent. I cannot recommend him highly enough. If you are getting divorced, you definitely want Attorney Richardson on your side.

Honesty and Kindness

My positive experience with this attorney would last for ever in my life. My case was stoked for more then a year with another attorney, but fortunately one day I decided to bring my case to the Attorney Richardson. How soon he got it my case started to move on. Couple months after my case got se...ttled. He is the kindness person. Also, he is very honest with his clients. I'm very happy about the good results of my case!!! Thank you very much Attorney Richardson!!

Attorney Richardson

Rick is smart, compassionate and quick to come up with solutions. I had complete confidence in his counsel because my divorce was extremely complex. I used him as counsel and was my reserve litigation lawyer, if I needed him. The divorce was settled out of court, but I do not regret spending the e...xtra money for the peace of mind I was given. Thank you attorney Richardson!

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.
