Rick has always been honest with us about the process, the law, and possible outcomes. He has always worked with integrity and we trust him to work within the law and protect our interests to the best of his ability.
"Before working with Rick at the same firm I had the pleasure of working with him on several cases where he was opposing counsel. I have always found him to be ethical, aggressive, creative, attentive to his clients and the case and willing to consider the best solution to difficult family law matters. I highly recommend Rick DePippo."
"Rick is a great lawyer who cares about his cases. He is a tactician and an excellent advocate and litigator. Prior to Rick and I working together, I had multiple occasions to have cases against Rick. I experienced him to be a worthy advocate who always represented the case in the best interest of his clients. Clearly, my decision to hire him to work at my firm after litigating against him speaks volumes for my respect for him."
"Rick is an amazing litigator. He is no-nonsense, and knows how to make sure that a client can fast-track their case to a resolution. He is committed to settlement, but will also fearlessly represent a client in court when required to meet their needs."
"Mr. DePippo and I worked together for some time at a small boutique law firm and we have been advasaries since that time. Mr. DePippo has always comported himself with the utmost professionalism and he is an excellent divorce/dissolution attorney. I highly recommend Mr. DePippo."
