Richard Bombardo went above and beyond all expectations! I am a father who lives out of state and wanted to file for primary physical custody of my son. Richard gave me an honest consultation that it would be an uphill battle winning primary physical custody, given all the odds stacked against me. No...t only did Richard help me WIN primary physical custody… I also got everything else I wanted in the custody agreement for my child. Richard is knowledgeable, thorough, and transparent. He was aggressive in court and passionately advocated for me. Richard answered all my questions in a timely matter and was available day and night to accommodate my availability. I absolutely recommend Richard Bombardo to anyone needing an attorney who is actually going to fight for you.

Great Experience

Richard Bombardo was an excellent choice for a lawyer. I had seen and talked to many other lawyers in the area and none of them came close to his experience and knowledge of divorces/child custody. My case was complicated, but he was firm and dedicated to getting what I wanted. In the initial consult...ation, he did not waste time. He immediately wanted facts and wanted to get to work on the case. He was respectful and firm to my insulting and cruel ex, which in turn led my ex to give me what I wanted (full custody). I couldn't thank Richard enough for his hard work and dedication to my case. Thanks to him I now have full custody of my child. I would recommend him to anyone going through the tough time of a complicated divorce. He will be completely honest. He will get the job done.

I really like and respect Richard Bombardo, he won my custody case and I will use him in the future.

Richard was easy to get a hold of, discussed everything with me thoroughly, was incredibly fair with me about billing, and offered me sound legal advice while allowing me to make my own decisions. I won sole physical and primary custody of my son along with pretty much everything I hoped for included... in my custody agreement. My case was very heavy in the evidence department and Richard spent hours going over it with me. Richard sincerely wanted me to win custody of my son and even followed up after my court case ended to see how the transfer of custody was going. He is an incredibly straight forward and honest attorney and if you are honest and straight forward yourself about your case he is the perfect fit for you.

Excellent Experience!

I was fortunate to have Richard Bombardo for my attorney for a rather complicated case. He took the time to get all the details about what had happened along with making sure to go over them with me too; to be clear he had all the facts correct. His dedication is excellent. He was always sure to kee...p in touch with me throughout the process, I called him many times, too. He was always sure to return my phone calls and was more than happy to answer any of my questions. He understood how important this case was to me and took it of just as much importance to himself. He really helped to make the whole process so much better! Great Experience!

Family lawyer | Dec 22

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."
