Outstanding representation

I met Mr. Ricci in June 2017 as we were the defendants in a business lawsuit. Mr. Ricci evaluated our case and immediately decided to represent our family. His expertise and knowledge was quickly evident and our confidence in him and Boatman Law firm grew throughout the course of the litigation. ...Mr. Ricci determined the plaintiff had no merit in the case. and was settled in February 2018. It was an absolute pleasure working with Mr. Ricci, and I would recommend him wholeheartedly.

Family Trust Lawsuit Resolution

I hired, as Successor Trustee, Attorney Ricci to resolve a Family Trust Lawsuit filed in Florida. I am a Massachusetts resident and not a lawyer, but Trustee of my father's Florida Trust. The suit was filed in Florida by my siblings claiming they wanted more control in the workings of the trust. Ever...ybody wants to be in charge! I hired Attorney Ricci over the phone and worked with him for 18 months seeking resolution to the lawsuit. You will find him to be a good communicator, as he listened and then offered suggestions to get me on track with the legal theory and requirements of the case. He was always timely in the submissions of our legal documents. He also told me not to worry about next steps of "what if this or that", just let the case unfold as it will. Timely responses, as required, a lawyer that listen and good emotional support, everything you need in an attorney. The case resolved in mediation, as required under Florida law, before trail. Mediation is a process of giving. General Grant was task with giving a just peace at Appomattox, giving can sometimes heal the parties, sometimes no so much. Attorney Ricci is a great attorney to work with, both in interpersonal relationships and practice of the law in seeking resolution of the lawsuit.

Ernest Ricci

The balcony above our condo was leaking into our living room causing significant damage and the HOA and management company were not acting on our behalf to resolve the issue. We reached out to Attorney Ernest Ricci of The Boatman Law Firm for assistance. We are extremely pleased with the results f...rom Ernest's hard work. Our condo has now been repaired and the balcony is no longer leaking. Ernest was diligent, professional and extremely knowledgeable in Florida condominium law. We would not hesitate to retain Ernest again and recommend his services without question.

Excellent Attorney Who Truly Cares

I am forever indebted to Ernest Ricci for his drive and determination to help my family in a lawsuit that was tearing us apart financially and emotionally. He recognized this distress and made the final push to counsel, persist and finish a trying time for all of us. He was able to listen and "talk u...s off the ledge", make recommendations and follow through to the finish line of a three year ordeal. I recommend him highly for his intelligence, intuitiveness, calm demeanor and follow through.

Relationship: Friend

"You will not find a more loyal, honest, and hardworking attorney. He is a true embodiment of all that is best in the profession. His "client-first" mentality is something that leaves an impression from the first moment you walk in his office. It clearly frames everything he does. I've worked with him for years. I can not only attest to his willingness to always put the client's needs above his own, but I can also attest to his knowledge, expertise, and understanding of the most complex nuances in the law. It's why he can get resolution the way he does. It's why his clients return to him time and again. It's why I would recommend Ernie to anyone looking for a first-class attorney. He is a true resource and blessing for colleagues and clients alike."
