Richard Allen Dezio

When my husband and I sat down with attorney Richard Allen Dezio for the first time, we did not know what to expect from the process, or the cost of creating our family trust, will and durable power of attorney. Mr. Dezio quickly put us at ease with his knowledgeable responses and relaxed mannerism ...during our discussions. Our documents were excellently prepared by Mr. Dezio and the signing of them was easily executed with his guidance. We were very pleased with our experience with Mr. Dezio and his reasonable fee. My husband recently passed away, which necessitated the revision of the documents Mr. Dezio had previously drawn up. During the process he was very kind, sympathetic and patient. He was easily available by phone, answered my many questions and made me feel comfortable. My revised documents are also excellent and Mr. Dezio's fee was very reasonable. I highly recommend Attorney Richard A. Dezio.

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.
