Exceptional Legal Work. Dedicated Attorney

My case was concluded in the Superior Court of the District of Columbia on January 17, 2018. The outcome of my case was such that I felt the need to give Mr. Riddick an outstanding recommendation. I was referred to Mr. Riddick by my adult daughter. My matter involved an estate case, with quite hos...tile parties. The case had been pending for seven years, and I had been represented by several prior attorneys, who just could not bring the case to finality. I consulted with Mr. Riddick, and retained him the same day. It only took a short time with him to realize that he is very experienced attorney, has broad legal knowledge, and is a person of integrity. I retained Mr. Riddick in February, 2017. For eleven months he fought for me. I was facing the loss of my share of a substantial estate. He defended me against untruthful allegations, and did legal research going back 40 years to find legal authority, which proved to be the basis upon which I ultimately received the share of the estate that I was due. Mr. Riddick's work was done timely, and he allowed me to review and discuss all of his work before it was filed. He treated me with respect. It was clear that he genuinely cares about his work and the people he serves. I am quite satisfied.

Excellent Practictioner

I have known Mr. Riddick for nearly 25 years and he has represented either me or my family members on a number of occasions during that time. Mr. Riddick has been and is very professional and courteous in his representation of his clients. While no lawyer can guarantee a successful result, Mr. Riddi...ck will guarantee his clients that he will fight and give his best in his representation. Mr. Riddick is always timely in his compliance with court orders and for his clients, he timely returns their calls and keeps them informed about their case's status. i was particularly impressed with Mr. Riddick's settlement and negotiation skills. I regard Mr. Riddick as one of DC's best practitioners and would recommend him highly.

End your state of despair. Empathetic, experienced..what more could you ask for

I was referred to Mr. Riddick by someone whom he had previously served. He came highly recommended. He defended me in a divorce and custody action. There were significant property issues at stake, including my pension benefits, distribution of the marital home and other personal property. At the ...conclusion of the matter, I retained the home, have primary custody of the children and kept my pension. Mr. Riddick did a great job for me. He put on a listening ear, showed compassion and got tough when needed. He not only advised me, but he educated me throughout the process. Something I truly needed. His work was done timely and professionally, and the outcome obtained was fair and quite satisfactory to me. I understand now why he came highly recommended. His work is superb.
