I hired him a few weeks back and so far he has been very compassionate and understanding about my case. I was referred by a family friend who used him in his divorce and custody case
Roy explained what was going to happen in our first meeting . I hired him to handle my divorce because he understands the law and precedent and he has confidence to explain how that will shape the case. In my instance he was successful in keeping my interests as the primary goal. He is the only professional I have met in recent years that will actually use his skills to change the evolution of events rather than responding to the other side. When Roy said this is what is going to happen - it did. Thank you Roy!

Outstanding
My decision to retain Roy as counsel was the best decision made for my divorce and custody trials. His knowledge and interpretation of the law coupled with his decisive and calculating courtroom demeanor makes him an outstanding choice when you need someone who has your best interests at hand. He is an honest, no BS professional. Thanks Roy.

Paternity Action
I was so grateful to have Roy represent me in connection with a paternity action in 2012. Roy's paralegal Katherine and Attorney Lisa Smith also did an outstanding job helping in my case. We reached a settlement at mediation and he promptly got the child support order entered. Roy was very knowledgeable and compassionate during a very difficult time in my life. I highly recommend Roy Smith.

Best Decision I've ever made!!!
Best decision I ever made was hiring Mr. Smith to represent me in my custody case. He is the third attorney I have retained for this matter and I can't say enough good things about him. Mr. Smith has accomplished more in my case in 60 days then my previous counsel did in a year. He communicates impressively timely, is extremely knowledgeable, and most importantly fights for his clients. In addition, he is very honest and realistic about the matter at hand. Lastly, his billing practices enable clients to get the best representation without being nicked and dimed to death. Bottom line, if you need an amazing attorney, and you don't hire Mr. Smith, you made a mistake.

"I have known Roy professionally and personally for over 12 years. He is one of the brightest and best attorneys I know. More important, he has a true passion about the type of law he practices, and has built a successful firm tailored to help people during difficult times when they are often the most emotionally vulnerable. Roy loves what he does, and as a result, consistently provides the highest possible quality of representation to his clients. Roy was also literally made for this kind of law, as he has the perfect temperament to guide his clients through the often bewildering and intimidating legal process efficiently and effectively, utilizing dispute resolution processes such as “collaborative divorce,” keeping his clients focused on the real issues (which in family law can be challenging), and otherwise striving to reach an optimal resolution to every case. I refer clients to Roy without hesitation, having the utmost confidence that their legal needs will be well served."
