Have used this lawyer more than once

Mr. Berube was very knowledgeable with my cases. First was a DUI case, and 5 years later he helped me obtain my pistol permit. He explained to me in detail the legal process and what to expect, also what was expected of me. Very professional and courteous.

best choice

Rich was very professional, really explained what was going on and how everything was going to happen. Was on time and kept me in the loop. Overall great guy and great lawyer.

Posted by Katherine | June 25, 2015 | Lawsuits & Disputes

Quick to respond and knowledgeable.

I haven't needed lawyers much at all throughout my life. However, when I did Rich was helpful and supportive. I knew he was a popular lawyer in the area, but when he was recommended from close friends I felt relieved. Rich knows the laws, and was able to handle my case with professionalism and the ri...ght amount of sensitivity that kept me confident. Rich answered all my questions on a consistent basis, kept me informed, and was always available even upon short notice, which is exactly why I would refer him.
