This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Diligent and thorough

I had a difficult (I know they're all difficult ) and drawn out divorce and Richard gave me great advice and helped me get through the process. He was always on top of things and didn't miss a thing but he was also fair. I don't think I could have gotten through the almost 3 year ordeal without h...im.

First my lawyer, now my friend

Sent from my iPad It was suggested to me that I interview at least three lawyers when I found myself faced with divorce. Richard Reich was the first AND last lawyer I met with.  That was 22 years ago. Richard is smart and considerate. He doesn't forget a thing you say. He is quietly confident ...and well respected by the judges and court personnel. With Richards guidance I was able to retain my home and raise my three daughters, seeing all three of them complete advanced educations. Richard not only handled my divorce, but came to my daughters rescue when she was faced with a domestic violence issue. He took command and put my daughter at ease during an extremely difficult and frightening time in her life. I have recommended Richard to many people who have found themselves in a divorce situation. All of them have used him to represent them, and all of them had positive outcomes.

Persistence with Integrity

My particular divorce case lasted almost 2 years....the court system is challenging at best. Richard was with me through thick and thin, helping me to fully understand my rights and to be properly prepared to face the many obstacles that come along with this painfully exhausting process. During times... of unbearable stress and anxiety, Richard was there to keep me calm and focused on the main objective - finalizing the divorce. Richard has a very calm demeanor, yet is extremely competitive and driven to ensure that his clients receive the settlement that is deserved. Richard is very fair and honest with his fees - admirable in this day and age. Richard provided excellent consultation and always remained professional during the toughest days in court. If you are looking to retain your dignity during some of the most challenging days you will ever face, I recommend that you retain Richard as your legal counsel.

money very well spent..

My first attorney was good, but not a specialist in the field. Richard Reich charged a fee typical of Divorce Attorneys, but well worth it. He was a "hands on" attorney, knowing the status of my case (probably the status of all his cases). Phone calls were returned the same day. He is pleasant and ea...sy to talk to. His knowledge of Divorce law and practice is exceptional. In my case, I had a reluctant spouse, with pitfalls along the way. These were handled professionally with the end result very satisfactory to me.

Great Experience!

Richard Reich could be THE fairest most reasonable attorney that I have ever dealt with, and I dealt with many. He was extremely thorough, knowledgable and compassionate in dealing with a very sensitive subject; the writing of a pre-nuptial agreement. It was done in a timely and efficient manner wi...th full consideration for my time and schedule. Mr. Reich was exceedingly fair and honest with his fee, actually refunding unused retainer without me even requesting it! A great experience with a true professional. I highly recommend him.
