Posted by Alan | January 10, 2017 | Hired Attorney | Arbitration

Extremely Complex Litigation, Arbitrations, Mediations

To be perfectly clear I do not think that there is a smarter more effective litigator in the country. He has not represented me and won in federal court litigations, but also large scale arbs, and achieved results in both, as well as mediations, that well exceeded my wildest expectations. In a world ...drowning with lawyers, Richard truly sets himself apart not just by his superior work but the fact that he genuinely cares about his clients as people. He has fought for me with all of his heart ( literally ) and for the past 16 years I have chosen only Richard as my go to, trusted attorney. I have also referred him a MASSIVE AMOUNT OF BUSINESS and they are equally as satisfied.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
