THE BEST

Andy is the most determined lawyer in all of Miami. He take your cases personal and gets results. He's an amazing man and I am so grateful to have had him on my husbands case.

Rier and Jordan The best.

Hired them after being scammed and lied out of my money for 2 years from Sara shulevitz. I hired them and in 4 months closed my case out dropped charges. Got me a deal that my previous lawyer said it was impossible to get for me. Happy I chose Rier and Jordan to represent me. Great service can't com...plain there front desk and paralegal always answered any and all questions I had. Paralegal team always updated me and always was in contact with me. Would recommend if u are in need of a good lawyer team.

Great lawyer

My name is jhimer holguin and in 2015 i was arrested in miami,my charges were trafficking, money laundering and holding to magistrate.i was desperate,confused and depressed i had never been arrested it was my first time in jail i just got mixed up with the wrong people not saying i was innocent but ...not to the extention of what the law was saying... while i was in jail i met a guy,he was talking wonders about his lawyer and so glad i listened..i was facing a minimum of 3 years and an maximum of 15 years,for 2 years this group of lawyers fought for me! Idk how many court dates,depositions, meetings with detectives and prosecutors, finally this man got me off with just probation wich is something that's unheard of.. this guy is a pitbull in court don't hesitate to hire him because when your freedom is at stake you want the best and that's what this group of lawyers are... THANK YOU ANDREW!!

He is worth every penny!

Andrew is the reason I was able to have a productive life after my case. He took a horrible time in my life and made it as stress free as possible. The DA was attempting to persecute me but, because of Andrew, I have no criminal history.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I strongly endorse Andy. He literally pulled a miracle by winning a murder trial where the evidence was overwhelming in which I had the co-Defendant and due to his skills, my client's case also got dismissed. Andy is also one of few attorneys in Miami who is never afraid to go to trial and gets the results for his clients."
