Managed house closing on his own.

Robert Ritacco is knowledgeable, and a great person. He managed a difficult property closing with ease. With both property owners out of town for most of the time, he was able to instruct on what documents were needed, from each of us, for a timely closing. He managed the closing on his own, with ...signed documents from each owner. I had no reservation in signing over a Power of Attorney, since I trust him completely. He was able to research information relevant to our particular case to our advantage. There were never delays on his part, and he was always accessible to contact at any time. I would definitely recommend Robert Ritacco and would use him in the future, should I ever own another property in the state where he practices. I thank him from the bottom of my heart.

Thank you!

I have used Mr. Ritacco for all my home purchases and sales in the past. He is very knowledgeable, professional and was always available to answer all of my questions along the way. I never had to wait long for a response as he stayed in direct contact with me at all times getting back to me immediat...ely. His informative and tentative approach during the process was always present. His compassioniote, positive and caring nature eased my stress during a somewhat grueling lender process. Mr. Ritacco is the best of the best and I would highly recommend his services to anyone. Thank you for all you do and we will continue to work with you in the future.

My Experience With This Firm May 2015

I'll try keep this as short as possible so that people actually read it. If you're on this web page it's a great idea to keep reading! The most important thing for people to know is that this review was 100% unsolicited. I have been promised nothing by this firm or its attorneys or employees curr...ent or past. I was not asked to do this. I have no affiliation or personal relationship with anyone at this Law Firm. I had two matters, with two different municipalities, that were definatley related and that I needed help with. In my mind they were both serious enough to get an attorney. Both cases were traffic, not criminal. As far as I was concerned, I had major problems. I found Rob Ritacco online and emailed him some facts pertaining to each case. Without stretching the truth, my phone rang within roughly 20-30 seconds later. I actually didn't even answer it because I didn't recognize the number and it didn't even cross my mind that it was him, but it was. I called him right back and a few minutes into the call my mind was totally at ease. It went from end of the world to life as usual for me really quick with that first conversation. Fast forward about 10 days, my first case was over with. Not only was it over with but I didn't even have to appear in court. Mr. Ritacco let me know through email that he felt best about another attorney there Kevin Sheehy handling that matter and it was handled with the results being best case scenario. Pretty good feeling for me. Fast forward once again to today, May 28th. (I was arrested on Mothers Day by the way, which was May 10th) I had been told by Rob that Mr. Sheehy would also be handling my second and more serious case in Toms River. The end result was again absolute best case scenario. Not only did it end in the best way it could have, I was the first case to be heard by the judge and was the first one out of there. Needless to say it couldn't have turned out better and I definatley couldn't be happier. The price I was charged, which I won't disclose for obvious reasons, was unbelievably fair. Keep in mind every case is different, this is only my case. There are a lot of variables and it's always written somewhere that results are never guaranteed when it comes to legal matters. I will guarantee something though. If you have a legal issue that falls under Rob Ritacco's expertise, and especially if it's a traffic matter in Ocean or Monmouth County, Kevin Sheehy and Rob Ritacco are without question the ones to reach out to. Both of them are Toms River guys, have lived here their whole lives and are very well known and respected in Brick and Toms River and most likely anywhere in the surrounding area. You will get 100% effort and will get awesome communication. I personally will only contact these guys if I ever needed an attorney or advice in the future.

Kudos to Robert Ritacco ESQ.

Mr. Ritacco represented me in a case regarding an automobile accident. He was very professional, knowledgeable and kept me abreast of all matters pertaining to the case. He was very easy to reach and his staff was fantastic. He won our case and was very well prepared for trail . I can't say eno...ugh about my positive experience with Mr. Robert Ritacco. You will not be disappointed with his services.
