Reliable and Professional

I have been working alongside Dick Ross for the past 3 years now and it's always been very productive, reasonable and fair. I have and will continue to recommend my own clients and acquaintances to Dick for any related legal or collection matter.

Great with collections

“While most cases settle quickly, in those instances when we have gone to court, RCS is very professional, effective and successful.”

Posted by Heidi | April 22, 2019 | Hired Attorney

Great Job

As the manager of accounting RCS has made my job so much easier. Great Communication as well

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2022.

Suspension issued in PA, 2022

updated on 07/07/2022

Suspended means an attorney lost his or her license to practice law for a period of time. The attorney typically returns to practicing law when the suspension expires.

Stayed Suspension, Probation issued in PA, 2018

updated on 04/11/2019

Suspension means an attorney will lose his or her license to practice law for a period of time. When a suspension is stayed and the attorney is given probation, the State monitors the attorney's activities for a time. If the probation period is uneventful, the attorney returns to practice when it expires.

Richard’s comment:

“Why would you consider an Attorney who has been disciplined? When it is one who has practiced for 41 years without ANY prior violations. This Probation a "technical" violation. No misappropriated money, no omissions or commissions, no work product issue. I accepted a case (Felony Expungement) on a $5000 flat rate basis. Time & costs exceeded $7500. I was to deposit funds into Escrow account; withdraw as earned. STAYED never involved a suspension. Happy to explain further.”
