Richard Rice assisted us with a politically sensitive case. He worked hard to exhaust every avenue to avoid going into a lengthy trial and was conscientious with regard to containing legal costs.

Richard Rice is one of the best criminal defense lawyers you can find in Georgia. Richard represented me during some of the most difficult years of my life when I faced federal felony charges. He was there for me every step of the way--from the arraignment, discussing our strategy, going over discovery and motions, and negotiating with the government. Most impressively, we were able to have the government initially withdraw their original indictment. Ultimately, although I decided not to go to trial, Richard was ready to fight the matter all the way. After much soul searching, I ended up pleading to a single misdemeanor count, resulting only in probation and a relatively low fine, with NO jail time. Richard discusses all your options intelligently, and he works diligently to meet all deadlines and provides transparency about the process, assessment of the risks and potential outcomes. Richard's past tenure as a former Assistant US Attorney was invaluable--the connections he has to speak with the government, the court, and the probation officers are critical to effective representation. But Richard isn't only just an excellent lawyer--he was compassionate and had great empathy, reaching out to comfort me during the agonizing decisions that had to be made. His services are worth EVERY penny, should you ever be so unlucky to undergo the terrible ordeal of criminal prosecution. He has my highest recommendation.

Potentially facing 30+ years jail time, I needed a top-notch criminal defense lawyer. Richard Rice was that man for me. He did some amazing negotiating on my behalf; the judge even commenting on Richard's performing "magic" in his negations in my case. He resolved my case with only light probation and no jail time. Richard also negotiated for all of my seized personal property to be returned to me from both federal and state agencies. Richard is a courtroom winner.

Very experienced and has abundant knowledge in his field. He got us out of the incorrect Federal accusation and we walked out clean. Unlike many other lawyers, he is very responsive and always stays on top of what he does. Definitely the best choice for what you need.

I was referred to Mr. Rice by the managing partner of one of the largest law firms in the United States. Mr. Rice not only quickly and easily extracted my family from a dire situation that could have become catastrophic, but he also assisted us in a variety of legal matters, both domestic and international. I can’t think of a more skillful attorney, and I, personally, do not engage in any legal matter prior to consulting him. He is the best of the best and will always find an answer to any legal situation confronting you. Simply put, he is the MacGyver of attorneys and I wholeheartedly recommend him.

Richard has represented our family on two occasions. He was sharp and aggressive. We were very happy with both results. I would recommend him to anyone.

I contacted Richard when my former employer took a hard stance on an issue with my departure. They were seeking to make a big example out of me for any and all future employees. There initial tactic to frighten me worked and sent me seeking my own counsel. I was referred to Richard by several friends independently, and it was easily the best decision I made for my problem. From the moment I hired Richard to represent me, I felt much more in control of my situation and a lot less helpless. Within a few weeks of hiring him, cooler heads were beginning of prevail, and he was successful in helping back them off their initial position. Without Richard, I am certain that this would have ended up with a much different result. I would absolutely and without hesitation recommend Richard to anyone who is facing a facing either a potential or actual criminal problem. He knows his stuff and his ability to work his relationships and develop rapport with the other side will definitely fall in your favor.
