Awesome Firm

Mr. Rier and Mr. Jordan are an amazing group of individuals that really care for their clients and their best interests. I had a probationary hearing that Mr. Rier represented me for and he was awesome in getting the judge to completely terminate my probation early and allow me to go on about my care...er! Thank you Mr. Rier and team!

The Best Lawyer

Mr.Rier was able to give me roaming even through this Pandemic and managed to give me his word along with his team. I am so glad I choose him to help me for my cases. If you want an attorney that will fight for you no matter what Rier Jordan P.A is the team you want !

Awesome Legal Representation

Charged With Allegedly Armed Trafficking drug cases and andy got me out in the 21 days on house arrest then a whole year later got some Alleged possession charges and he STILL got me out in a WEEK 7 DAYS on house arrest again, no bullshit this guy is aggressive and really goes after they’re throat, e...veryone knows these cops lie on affidavits and he makes sure that is brought to light. never met a more professional lawyer that actually cares about his clients personally. You get what you pay for if you want a top lawyer this is your guy, recommend him for any and all legal issues.

The best attorney in South Florida! Hands down.

I hired Andrew in 2015, I was facing 60 yrs for three trafficking charges. 20yrs. each count. I set in the county jail three years riding on those three cases. The state had me on camera dead to the wrong. That’s why they didn’t budge from the 60 years. Andrew took my case over in late 2015, early 20...17 he got me a plea. 6yrs. prison with 1 year probation early termination after 6mos. Today was my early termination hearing, my motion was granted. I got my life back, I thank GOD for Andrew Rier. If you’re looking for a attorney who will fight to the end for you right or wrong. Andrew Rier is that dude, love you drew.

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."
