Professional and knowledgeable

Mr. Bombardo did everything in his will power to make sure I was divorced and happy. He always had my best interests at heart and went above and beyond any situations that may have created any challenges for my case. He is thorough, professional and patient. Mr. Bombardo always made himself available... to answer all of my questions, and trust me I had plenty.

Great Attorney!

You couldn't ask for a better lawyer than Richard Bombardo. He handled a very difficult matter for me in a very calm and deliberate matter. When I worried about details he reminded me that it was his responsibility to take care of the details, and he did so. He was easy to get in touch with and pro...mptly returned phone calls. He was well prepared and won my case for me. His professional manner was very reassuring and he is clearly competent. In addition, he was honest and very clear about all of the possible outcomes. He promised to do his best for me but did not guarantee any outcomes. I highly recommend Mr. Bombardo to anyone who is in need of a Family Law attorney.

Excellent partner

Richard made my divorce process seem effortless on my part. He was very prompt in returning any calls/texts I made to him (always responded within a day or two. Talked to me like I was his only client, though I knew he was quite busy! Very respectful attorney!!

Richard Bombardo

I retained Richard to handle my divorce action. I found him to be intelligent, well versed in the law, and very competent. I was always able to reach him when needed and he was always able to explain what I did not understand in terms that I did. He has a very even tone and was able to keep me focuse...d on the end goal and not to worry too much on the small issues as they popped up. I would certainly recommend Richard to anyone who is in need of legal counsel and would use his services again should I find myself in the situation where I needed them.

Provides Results

I hired Richard to help me with some issues I was having with my ex wife. His process was fair and simple. I gave him a retainer for services to be rendered. We then had a couple of meetings to discuss the circumstances surrounding my case, and he was off to work. After our few initial meetin...gs, Mr. Bombardo called me regularly to update me on what the status of my case was and what our next steps would be. He gave me plenty of notice when I needed to be present for a meeting / hearing. My case was fairly complex and I ended up depleting the initial retainer before my case was wrapped up. I was then given options on how to proceed. I like things simple so I just paid an additional retainer and we moved along. Upon the completion of my case we had one final meeting at his office (which is easy to locate and has ample parking when compared to other attorneys I have used). During that meeting, he explained to me in detail what the outcome was, and what that meant for me. Additionally, he walked me through my bill (retainers paid vs charges accrued). He then provided me with a final invoice showing I would be credited the part of my retainer that was not used! All in all, my experience with Richard Bombardo was positive and I would recommend him to anyone looking for superior representation.

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"He is extremely professional and takes pride in his representation and presentation to the court and counsel. He vehemently advocates for his clients yet is always agreeable and open to reasonable settlements to avoid the unknowns of trial. He always keeps his Client’s goals as a priority. He sometimes gets a little loud in court but that just reflects his passion in advocating for his clients. It is never personal which makes working with him enjoyable in an area of law that is extremely toxic. Client’s that wrote negative reviews most likely did not understand the process or went against what was recommended to them. He is a lawyer I would want on my side if I needed on for a divorce or family law matter."
