Amazing person, amazing lawyer!

Words cannot express my gratitude for how Cory handle my divorce/custody process. Throughout the entire process he maintained a high level of integrity, professionalism, compassion, and astuteness. Cory championed for me and my children and yielded better results than I was expecting. I'd recommend a...nyone looking for a honest and tenacious lawyer, call Cory Ricci. I hope I won't need a lawyer again, however if I do, I'm definitely calling Cory.

Honorable Lawyer and Man

This review took some time for me to figure out exactly what I wanted to say about Mr. Ricci because he handled my case with that much knowledge, class, and confidence; I could never thank him enough. My situation was an interesting one, but he took it on confidently and methodically. I called a do...zen or more offices trying to find someone to take on my case, and everyone I spoke with either didn’t seem to have the time, or they didn’t think my goal was attainable. My case involved my kids’ mental health and well-being, so I was determined to find someone that would fight with me. When I first spoke with Mitzi and Mr. Ricci, they were understanding and empathetic for my situation and immediately wanted to help. He knew the steps to take first to get things moving, and quickly! Time was a big factor in the beginning of my case. I trusted him so going forward, everything he asked of me, I did. And it paid off. He was prepared all the time, at every hearing and at trial. Mr. Ricci is incredibly knowledgeable with laws and is detail oriented and focused. He truly is incredible at what he does - compassionate, but also knows how to simply get things done. I would recommend him first above all others, to anyone needing a lawyer for divorce, child custody, or child support matters. He holds true to his values and what’s right. You can definitely put your trust in him!

Highly Recommend

Retained Cory to handle my unfortunate divorce... He was extremely professional. I never found myself having to call his office with any questions regarding this case, either himself or his assistant Mitzi were ON TOP of everything. They let me know in great detail what meant what and what to expect... throughout. Being new to this I was very scared going in but the entire staff made it much easier to deal with. Cory did EVERYTHING that I asked of him and at times he even advised me when to keep my mouth closed for my best interest which is something I've never been good at. Cory was very tenacious in the courtroom and made clear to the defendant he would not settle for less than what we came to court for. He went above and beyond in my opinion! Very personable, diligent, and organized. Also called after everything was done just to check on how life was moving forward. 10/10 recommend.

Best Lawyer Around

I first met Cory in 2020. I had a couple of consults over the phone with a bunch of lawyers in 2020. I need someone to represent me in a very high conflict divorce and custody battle. When I called Cory, I knew it would be a good match. He didn’t judge me for my past or look down on me for anything. ...He took on the year and a half mess of a divorce. If I had questions on a Sunday, at 8pm, it didn’t matter. Cory texted me back and would proceed to email the other party’s representation. He got the best outcome for me in that. In early 2022, I hired him again for a separate custody matter. Cory went above and beyond, again, and got the exact outcome I asked for. He is kind, understanding, and quite honestly funny and laid back. When it comes to court and being in front of a judge, he is tenacious, aggressive, and most importantly- extremely prepared. I will hire him for as long as he’ll represent me if I need another lawyer. He is a fabulous person and lawyer.

Review 2021

Cory Ricci was a steadfast, rock solid foundation for which my family needed during a difficult time. He stepped in and advocated for our family, both in the legal arena, as well as providing support and compassion during this difficult litigation. His composure and deep seeded knowledge proved inval...uable in reaching a highly favorable outcome, for which we could not be more grateful. Cory Ricci is professional, knowledgeable, and compassionate. He ensures each of his clients are provided the upmost respect and dedication, and could not receive higher praise for his representation.
