Great lawyer

Attorney Richard Healy handled my case with precision, honesty, and strong advocacy, always keeping my best interests front and center. His courtroom presence was calm, focused, and effective, and I felt well-represented at every stage. Most importantly, he communicated clearly and treated me with re...spect throughout the entire process. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking a skilled, dependable, and results lawyer.

Great Character

Richard Healy is a great attorney and is of great character, which is important as being defendant can feel quite vulnerable. His practice is professional and reliable. Attorneys are busy professionals and are constantly consumed with time sensitive tasks, so the fact that he was very responsive to a...ll questions and concerns was very reassuring. He was straight forward regarding the possible outcomes of the case without absolute promises of desired outcomes (which no lawyer can deliver) but diligent in pursuing victory. I cannot reiterate his honorable character as a person and a professional, which is an important factor in choosing an attorney.

Life saver

I was facing a case that could result in jail time of over a year. With his help i was able to get it reduced to required classes and then it was expunged. He is a nice person and definitely puts the client first. He was always a phone call away and kept both sides of the process updated asap. I woul...d recommend him to anyone that is looking for a great defense lawyer. He was fair and understanding. Never had a feeling like he was going to short me when it was time to present our defense in court.

Excellent Representation

Rich was an excellent attorney! He was knowledgable, thorough, and straight forward. He was extremely easy to work with and very trustworthy. He represented me during my divorce. I would highly recommend him!

Hire him immediately

Mr. Healy was absolutely amazing before, during and after my trial. I was planning on not going to court with a lawyer, but upon recommendation, I called Mr. Healy's office the day before. I was not expecting him to take my case with such little notice, but he immediately offered his services and was... at court with me the next day. To use his words, "we hit a home run."
