Richard V. Ellis

In 2011 Ellis represented me in a bankruptcy case without incident. Even though he, himself was absent from the courtroom the case was resolved favorably. Two years later I retained him to represent me when foreclosure proceedings were filed against me. I was able to work with the bank and together w...e modified my loan, thereby closing my foreclosure case before much of anything happened. Ellis filed one motion in the entire case before it was resolved. I contacted him asking for a detail account of the expenses he incurred on my behalf and a partial refund of my retainer which was not used. I have been leaving voice mails, emails, and sending letters for over 6 months now, and he hasn't had the decency to respond even once. Not even enough consideration to explain to me what charges he incurred or to explain why he is not refunding any of my retainer. His refusal to respond indicates his guilt, for if he is in the right, an explanation or return call is a reasonable request.

Richard Ellis handled my long and difficult divorce. I had a lawyer who seemed confused by my case. I switched and Richard's expertise and experience gave me confidence and eased my anxiety. He responded to all of my questions with knowledge that came from his decades of practicing law.in Sarasota.... Richard was also there for me when I had a car accident. It so happened that the crash occurred at 32nd Street and US41, very close to his office. While I'm nervously talking to the police here comes Richard Ellis across the street to help me. My attorney on the spot.

I would highly recommend Richard V Ellis. I was hit hard by the financial downturn in 2008 and it was financially devastating. Richard handle my personal bankruptcy in excess of $50,000,000.00. He did so in a superb, professional and caring manor. It was one year from the time my bankruptcy was f...iled until my discharge and he handle each meeting, crisis, and need in more than a professional way but in a way that showed he cared. I know that I was directed to him my a higher power and words can not express how I feel about his handling of my case and helping me navigate through the most challenging financial crisis of my life. He gave me the courage to realize this was only a detour along the journey.
