Richard L. Mott

After having him on retainer for a number of years during which he provided me with periodic advisory/consultation services, Richard ended up defending me in a fairly lengthy and serious crimininal case extending right up to the election in which he won his current NYS Supreme Court seat. Throughout ...this process he actually played a variety roles and acted on my behalf in many capacities, each of which I am pleased to say he excelled at. Beyond the skill and knowledge he displayed and the hard work that he put into my case, the thing I was left most impressed by was the client-attorney relationship that was formed over this time. His ability to consistently get exactly what was needed out of myself as the client in each phase of this ordeal, while simultaneously making things on my end as comfortable as possible is something that was truly unique in my personal experience. In retrospect, I am most thankful for the way in which he managed to keep me both informed and at ease, and I can only attribute this to the personable style in which he would communicate paired with his consistently evident brand of sincere confidence. Without ever seaming to put out either optimism or pessimism, he always maintained a cool but realistic sense about him which certainly made the many twists and turns of the long road we would end up traveling. While his fees are certainly on the higher end of the scale for the Captial Region, I have no hesitation in saying that the end result and maybe more importantly my experience as a whole were worth every dollar spent.
