Richard D. Kelly

I just purchased my first house. Mr. Kelly was recommended to me and this recommendation saved me from making a huge mistake. Mr. Kelly saw that I was in over my head and got me out of a sticky predicament. He reads over everything pointing out areas of a home inspection that may cost a buyer money ...in the future and points out these things asking if you are aware of potential problems and offering his recommendations on having potential problems remediated or that credits be awarded before closing happens. Mr. Kelly made it simple for me to understand the legal mumbo/jumbo language on documents. Mr. Kelly has a great humor side to him that also helps to alleviate the stress of closing on a property. You won't be sorry for hiring this lawyer.

We used Richard Kelly to purchase our first home. I have to say that from the very beginning it was very hard to get hold of him (even before we hired him it took him days to return our calls, prompting him to ask us if we still want to hire him!!). Very hard to get information from him, he even refu...sed to send us the papers before we went to closing to avoid questions (well, there were mistakes in calculating fees which we found at closing). After the deal was done we had questions about some assessments, but for him the deal was done, he was again not to be found. I would definitely not use nor recommend him.

I called Mr. Kelly, and he responded to my email even though it was after hours. He was courteous, and very knowledgeable. With Mr. Kelly our first home purchase was smooth, and we felt that we had someone who would tell us the truth, and recommend the best course of action, if we were uncertain. ...We were prepared at every step of the process, thanks in part to Mr. Kelly's support and advice.

The last question asked above is "Would I recommend this lawyer?" Well I would, and already have. Twice. In a month. Richard Kelly was what I wanted in a lawyer and more. I wanted to know that I had a lawyer that knew what he was doing and had the experience to get me what I needed, and he did that.... He was very responsive, responding to emails very quickly. The best part was that I felt comfortable by how RDK spoke with me and explained things to me. I hired a lawyer to represent me. I don't need to know the jargon, or the ins and outs of the deal, that is what he is for. The lawyer represent you and makes sure your best interests are taken care of. Richard Kelly could not have been any better.

Richard was very helpful throughout the whole process. He was very quick to respond to any of our questions and was there to support us every step of the way. He was very patient and calming when we were very stressed out, and took the time to explain everything, being this was the purchase of our... first home. He came highly recommended to me, and I highly recommend him to anyone.
