This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Great to work with

I learned your lawyer is only as good as the information you provide them. They worked as hard as they can for me and did a great job. I would recommend them over and over again.

This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Assistance with Tenant & Eviction

We contacted Mr. Wayne's office regarding evicting a non paying tenant who refused to leave a property we manage. Within a few weeks, we were in front of the judge and Richard was able to get this guy out and return possession of our property. I appreciated his office keeping us in the loop every... step of the way.

Richard doesn't invent false issues in foreclosure cases. He knows foreclosure laws and it is a pleasure to work with him because of his knowledge and his integrity."

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.
