Richard Alyn Schurr

My post judgement case was high conflict, high net worth, and I had 3 minors. I was up against 2 popular law firms, who care about wins, and not people’s or children’s lives. I had a guardian who was completely bias, listening to lies, exaggerations, without checking the facts. My case had... a ridiculous and unnecessary amount of paid professionals, experts and Doctors. Therapists, psych eval, parenting coaches, dbt therapy. When I tried calling to find an attorney, most wouldn’t take the case because it was a post judgment, or because of the judge, or because of who the guardian was. I went through 5 lawyers, hundreds of thousands of dollars, 14 months, and not one experienced lawyer had a game plan. I couldn’t have been in a worse situation, stuck in the family court web, my children gone, all the professionals after money, I came across Richard Schurr. He accepted my case right away after 5 lawyers had their hands on it with many huge mistakes and 2 years of post judgement litigation. Nothing scares him. Rick was patient, understanding, and explained every detail. I wanted to stay informed with every phone call he had, and he made himself available to do so. I never felt embarrassed if I needed something explained. His knowledge goes far beyond law and has experience in forensic accounting, which couldn’t be more helpful. He has a deep understanding of psychology, people and personalities. He always had a game plan, even if it had to change a few times. After over 2 years, 14 months without my kids, he got the job done in 4 weeks. It’s unheard of how talented he is. His office runs so smoothly, each employee has a job and there is always someone to call or text. Motions filed quickly, depositions all went well, finances explained, dates and zoom links shared, and all emails responded to. He was over prepared for court and nothing was last minute with him and his team. They all made sure to mix humor with the most difficult time of my life. And while I heard losses and negativity after hearings or emails, he read between the lines, he found evidence and small windows to run with, he always saw the positives. The best in Miami.

The success of a divorce is the lawyer that is chosen, cheap is expensive! When choosing the lawyer for your divorce, think about investing to receive or in other cases not having to pay. Richard and his team go beyond incredible, watching him litigate is a pleasure, the way he knows the laws and t...heir implications. He is a realistic lawyer, he goes to the point of things, he does not waste the money of his clients and above all the communication is excellent, at any time there is access to him and his team, day, night, and weekends. all questions are resolved

I’m very pleased with the service I received from Richard and his legal team. I’m sure a lot of family litigation cases are emotional and contentious, as mine was, but Richard’s team was so responsive and patient with my situation, which really helped put my mind at ease. They did an excellent job of... communicating realistic expectations throughout the process, and managed to achieve results that exceeded expectations. They are true professionals, and more importantly, they genuinely care about their clients. I highly recommend them for any family litigation case. Thank you Richard and team!

While my title might seem a little dramatic, it does not even begin to explain the support Rick provided to me these past few months. After a year filled with unexpected losses of loved ones my ex-husband blindsided me and told me he wanted a divorce (and how he went about it wasn't pretty). I was ...not in an emotional state to advocate for myself, nor do I have enough financial knowledge, compared to my ex, to truly protect myself and my children. Rick stepped in and took care of everything. He had my back every step of the way. He has creative ways of looking at things, he is a master negotiator, and he has an amazing sense of humor that can diffuse even the most serious of situations. I'm still not sure my ex-husband & his lawyer know what hit them. Thanks to Rick, my children and I are going to be okay. And as Rick has repeatedly assured me, someday we are going to be better than okay. If you want a smart, fair, empathetic advocate in your corner then Rick is your man.

Rick did an incredible job throughout the whole divorce process. I had seen various attorneys previously and my experience was that he was by far the smartest, most competent, and fastest. To give you a point of comparison, my ex-wife went through three different attorneys, each one looking good on p...aper and ultimately being a disaster (which played in my favor). Rick is very talented, and understands the needs of his clients. He was always very professional and provided excellent and consistent feedback and advice. I was confronted with a challenging divorce, with my ex-wife that did not work for the past 12 years, and significant assets and properties in the US and abroad. All sorts of unexpected issues arose during my case (sudden request from my ex-wife to relocate with the children, changes in her position and requests, new lawyers appointed, etc) and throughout it all Rick provided excellent guidance. Rick was great as well at providing reassurance in the moments of tension and doubt, and also ensuring that we kept a hard position when needed. His extensive financial background with knowledge of taxes/finances/alimony/child support guidelines allowed him to calculate in a few minutes what the CPA or other attorneys took extensive time on their computers to do! This clearly played in our favor during our negotiations. Rick was also very strong in convincing the opposing party to abandon any of their non-realistic claims, and to take the conversation back to our position. Rick is an extremely strong negotiator, and I saw how he was far superior to the other attorneys in mediation and throughout the whole divorce process. He understood my desire to limit costs and find a settlement, while ensuring the outcome was favorable to me. I am very pleased with the overall result and agreement reached, and furthermore saved a tremendous amount by avoiding having to go to court. I would therefore highly recommend Richard Schurr to anyone seeking top tier legal counsel.
