Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I strongly endorse this attorney. I have known Richard Bost both personally and professionally for several years, and have found him to be smart, knowledgeable, and a zealous advocate for his clients. Richard is an excellent trial attorney, and the type of lawyer, other lawyers approach to brainstorm on their cases. Mr. Bost is excellent at anticipating how a judge will view a set of facts, and he is a problem-solver. I recommend Richard Bost with the highest confidence."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
