Difficult Case but Great Lawyer

Brian Richards was very professional and helped us during a very difficult time. He considered our specific needs and worked with us to create a plan and helped us through the process of getting an interview for a green card. Thank you so much. I recommend Brian T. Richards for your immigration ne...eds.

Excellent lawyer

We are very happy we chose Mr. Richards based on the amazing reviews he had online and we were not disappointed. Mr. Richards was always available and easy to get a hold off. He prepared us well for our green card interview and was present with us during the interview which made our experience phenom...enal. I would most certainly recommend working with Mr. Richards.

For Khemphon

I want to Thank Brian and Nikki for all their help. Without their help and knowledge we would have never made it through this immigration process.

Good at what he does.

Brian helped us during the covid 19 pandemic. He got my fiance and her daughter over here by January 2nd 2021. We went through a lot together, but Brian and Nikki made sure we had everything prepared and ready. If this is your first time getting a K1 visa, I highly advise anyone to hire Brian T. R...ichards as your attorney. Even my best friend made a recommendation for me to see this attorney for help.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
