Thank you Rich!

Richard and his team were outstanding! They understand that even though they are experts in Real Estate law, that many people (including me) get terribly stressed throughout the process of selling your home. I never once felt that Rich and his team (Jozette, Jennifer, Karen, Nancy, et al) didn't know... why I was calling and/or weren't at least 2 steps ahead of me in the process. I'm very grateful and I highly recommend them (for "legal" peace-of-mind). Sincerely, Ben

He's definitely on your side!

Richard and his team assisted me with the sale of my home. They were responsive, professional and made me feel like he was there to protect and help me. I loved working with him and I would absolutely work with him again.

Home Purchase

Rich was a pleasure to work with throughout my entire home purchase. Since this was our first time buying in NJ, he took the time to explain the closing process in detail and was available to answer any of our questions at any time! He made my husband and I feel extremely comfortable from day 1. He w...as communicative and responsive and very detailed. He made the closing process seamless and stress free! He even followed up after the closing! That is what I call A+ service. I highly recommend Rich for any of your legal needs!

Municipal Court

Mr. Sanvenero represented me in a municipal Court matter and I could have not been more satisfied with his assistance. He is diligent, knowledgeable, and compassionate when it comes to his work. He cares about his clients needs listening attentively to my questions and concerns while representing me.... He is excellent at what he does and I would highly recommend his services.

Mediation / Closing Attorney

I have been able to go to Richard for legal advise several times and I couldn’t recommend a better lawyer/ attorney to use. He has been a lawyer I can truly trust and count on to guide me through stressful processes . Back in 2019 I was able to smoothly complete mediation paperwork for a divorce... . Recently I decided to use Richard again to handle my condo closing . I was always able to get in contact with Richard either phone or via email. He and our realtor communicated effectively, and to the point where we were able to close on our home on a earlier closing date then originally planned . I will continue to use Richard in the future and appreciate his knowledge , skill set, and professionalism .

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.
