Overall great experience

I hired Richard to defend me against a traffic violation that was going to put points on my record and increase my insurance. From my first phone consultation, he was easy to talk to and understanding— two traits I didn’t expect. Richard actually went to the court for me on the day of my trial (I did...n’t have to go) and represented me. He was able to reduce the charge and I was charged a fee, but didn’t receive any points on my license. I would hire Richard again in a heartbeat when (hopefully not though!) I needed to. I recommend him to everyone!! Great and so easy to work with.

Highly Recommend

I can not begin to express my gratitude for Rich and his teams services and would highly recommend this firm to anyone! Rich’s knowledge and expertise were top-notch in aiding me with the courts and to personally keep me calm through the process. He knew all the answers to my questions, with detail, ...and aided in helping justice prevail and the appropriate outcome to fruition. Not only is Rich to thank, but his aids and office staff maintained professionalism and assisted whenever I needed. A HIGH CLASS, EXCELLENT experience! want JUSTICE.. get the BEST!

Excellent representation

I am grateful for their services and would highly recommend this firm to anyone. Their knowledge and expertise were helpful, and they came to traffic court with me twice to assure I got the best and fairest deal

Trustworthy & Effective

This attorney had represented me multiple times. I have referred him to family and friends who all echo glowing remarks. He has gotten me full dismissals and drastically reduced on plea bargains. Prices are fair and he genuinely cares about his clients. Finally a lawyer who I can count on!

Amazing service

I hired Richard after receiving a failure to stop ticket in Highland Park when I crossed a yellow light and it turned red just milliseconds after I crossed. I'm a college student who does Uber and Lyft as my main income. I couldn't afford having the points on my record as too many points and tickets ...would increase the chance of me being deactivated as a driver as well as increasing my insurance premiums. Richard's staff took care of everything and on the day of court, his associate attorney got my 2 point ticket reduced to a no points and $89 fine ticket. I was expecting the Unsafe Driving $400+ ticket if this got reduced so Richard's staff actually surprised me by the result and exceeded my expectations. With his low flat fee and excellent service, I can't recommend him enough.
