Great Attorney

I hired Richard last year after meeting with several different attorneys. Although the other attorney’s seemed knowledgeable, Mr Rosenblatt was able to offer concrete advice and steps to move forward. It’s very reassuring when the attorney you hire can actually give you advice and explain the possibl...e outcomes from each decision and even have a plan on how to move forward. If you want an attorney truly “on your side”; actually coming forth with solutions and not just tallying up your bill then Richard Rosenblatt is the right attorney.

A Law firm you can trust!

I recently acquired the legal services of the office of Richard Rosenblatt for a bankruptcy case and I have commend him and his staff, particularly Stephanie and James for a flawless job they did! I was under a lot of stress and asked a million questions, and they never did they make me feel like I w...as a bother. They completely understand! And they didn’t charge me an arm and leg! I never felt as if I was on the clock and the meter was running up my bill! Don’t hesitate to use Richard Rosenblatt for any of your legal needs. He is incredibly honest and will fight for you tooth and nail!

Excellent Communication and Service

I contacted Mr. Rosenblatt after I had made some mistakes in trying to handle a lawsuit myself. He is honest, direct, likeable but most importantly professional. He kept to his word in communicating with me and handling the lawsuit. The results of receiving his service left me with a settlement that ...I am happy with. Hopefully, I won't need his services again, but if something else happens in life then I know who to call.

Excellent Represntation

I'm thankful that I had Richard represent me with the settlement of my father's estate. The situation was rather contentious and Richard strove to negotiate the issues without going to court. Once it was clear that we had to go to court, Richard took the time to get me prepared, so that court w...as not overly emotional. He also coached me not to get caught up in any petty issues, which would have been an emotional drain and muddied the issues. Additionally, Richard was able to assess and navigate through the concerns of many emotional people and get a sense of how the judge would perceive them. This proved instrumental in our success. It was a very unpleasant experience and I'm thankful that Richard was there to guide me through it. Should be fortunate enough to be able to hire Richard, you'll likely relate to my perspective.

Bank negotiation case

I met with Richard to discuss using his firm to re-negotiate some very unfavorable mortgages. I had five loans on five properties. Richard met with me without obligation and told me that he might not prevail on all of them, but that a favorable outcome might be possible on some of them. I hired Ri...chards firm and was very happy I did. Communication was clear, rapid, and expert. Each case was carefully handled. We ended up prevailing on 3 out of the 5, resulting in a multi-thousand dollar savings on each property, each year. Richards services were a great value to me and I am very happy I used his firm, and grateful for the help I received. I don't think anyone could have done better!

Professional misconduct

This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 2014.

Commission Reprimand issued in MD, 2014

updated on 09/03/2015

Richard’s comment:

“I have represented thousands of clients successfully in bankruptcy cases. This case involved a complaint by someone who had not made a mortgage payment for over 4 years during the time that I represented him. We tried a loan modification in 2009 and two chapter 13 bankruptcy cases. He claimed we did not tell him that he needed to make the mortgage payments during the case and other things. I took a letter reprimand rather than go to court. I should have fought this in Court.”
