Richard Gustafson - Highly Recommended

I highly recommend Richard Gustafson. He helped us through a difficult time. He was professional and through and was always available to take a call from us or return our call right away when we needed guidance or information about the case. If you need legal representation Richard Gustafson is an ...excellent choice.

I highly recommend Richard Gustafson.

Being a new home owner in Myrtle Beach I found myself in need of legal help. My neighbor gave me the name of lawyer and I went in for a consultation. We met him in a back room of a gift shop with no air conditioning and he hardly said anything about my issue before he blurted out over $5000 fees plu...s add on. I left their feeling nervous and lost about finding good representation for my case. It was getting late in the day and I looked on the internet and found an ad for a local lawyer Richard Gustafson with good reviews. I called Mr. Gustafson explained my situation and he asked if I would like to meet with him. At almost 4 in the afternoon I felt it would not be today but to my surprise he said he would stay after hours and meet with me and my wife. We talked for over 2 hours and I felt relieved that we had found an experienced lawyer that cared about his client’s. Richard handled everything smoothly and professionally and got the charges dropped! I highly recommend Richard Gustafson for your legal needs.

Speeding Ticket

I retained his office based on a recommendation from a friend for a speeding ticket. After obtaining his services I was little skeptical but very impressed with the way his office communicated with me effectively and always responded to phone calls. He was reliable, dependable, and committed to acco...mplishing the things that I wanted, not necessarily what he wanted. The outcome surprised even me. Would definitely recommend
