Excellent! glad we re-hired him & now he has a great associate too

Glad we re-hired him. Rich is great, then we did something we normally don't do-give out someone's name (invariably someone complains about the painter/roofer/dr/lwyr you recommend). Everyone who used him was happy-a miracle. Now we called again for another matter and found out he has a partner/as...sociate who does many other areas where clients need a certain type of attention, including elder and animal law, Carol Ryder. She was in the papers and has some awards you find all over so you know she has that mind-set to take extra-good care of her clients like Rich always does. Great back-up helps-we had a lawyer years ago without it and he got sick and his covering attorney was not as good as him and didn't know our case like our guy did. We hired Rich instead. I would highly recommend Rich.
