Posted by anonymous | March 10, 2024 | Hired Attorney | Lawsuits & Disputes

Mr. Smith

So happy he is gone. Started off as a good man but became incompetent and a crook. Took your money, didn't file proper documents and left you in the wind. And always used the excuse I was with another client or in court. His first secretary warned me. He's good but, irresponsible.

Richard Barbera is the best Attorney I've ever known.

Richard is a champion Chess player. He told us this in the midst of a very large case. I will never forget that day when I knew "how" he knew how to do his job. When to make his moves, when not to and so on. He was amazing. I trust him with my life and the life of my family as should you!
