Immigration Divorce

Attorney Dodd quickly grasped the immigration issues that were essential to settling my divorce case expeditiously, rather than running up litigation costs. He coordinated with myself, family members and my immigration counsel to negotiate a strong settlement without alienating opposing counsel. I’m ...grateful for his diligent time, effort, and attention to the details, and for keeping us informed throughout the entire process.

Excellent child custody lawyer

Mr.Dodd is an expert lawyer when it comes to family law. I had been going through the worst divorce and child custody battle before I found him. I had a very difficult case to begin with since I was transferring the case over from another state and there had been clerical errors that needed to be f...ixed, but he found a way to right everything in order to continue in filing a case against my ex-husband. Mr. Dodd fought very hard for my case and showed an outstanding amount of knowledge during our testimony. When I first hired him I had very little hopes of getting sole custody of my child, but through a series of events that helped my case and Mr. Dodd's quick actions against those events, he was able to get me everything I wanted and more. I've talked to other attorneys and none of them believed that I could've won my case, but with the help from Mr. Dodd I did. My life is changing for the better now thanks to the trial results from Mr. Dodd. If I ever to hire a lawyer again, he would be my number one choice.

Attorney services provided by Richard Dodd II

Mr. Dodd coached and represented me effectively in negotiating a marital settlement agreement with my former spouse (who had no lawyer), and collaborated with her in filing a mutual consent divorce Complaint and Joint Request for Hearing. He kept me informed at every stage, even when I was traveling ...abroad. I recommend him highly.

Amazing Attorney

Attorney Dodd is an outstanding lawyer - I could not have asked for a better attorney. I originally consulted him to negotiate with my former husband to enforce the court-ordered sale of our marital home. But what impressed me most was when he called me to offer help me with the trial of my custody r...elocation case that he noticed from my online court records was only one week away. In the week before trial he helped me gather and organize evidence and my testimony, meanwhile negotiating toward a relocation agreement with my husband’s attorney. After negotiations failed, he appeared in Court and advocated for me to enlist the Magistrate’s mediation in arriving at a mutually beneficial Consent Custody Order. When everything could have gone wrong for me, he helped me so that I got the best outcome I could for the time I had to prepare for the case. I would definitely hire him again in a heartbeat. I also have recommended him to a friend and she is very happy with him as well.

Awesome professional

Attorney Dodd advised and represented me in collaborative divorce negotiations over several months. In addition to his expertise in divorce and child custody and support law, his advised me about small business accounting and parenting plans. He is an extremely proactive, diligent and responsive lawy...er and always answered my calls promptly. He is dedicated to his client’s interests and an effective advocate. Few professionals have Rick's passion for what they do.
