Brilliant Mind
Thank you for your sound advice. You provided great assistance for a tough situation. Before we spoke, I was very confused, but you helped enlighten me. You explained some difficult concepts and highlighted steps that I could take. I will recommend you to others and come back if I need help.

“Tremendous Integrity
I have known Richard for a number of years. Mr. Sexner is an astute attorney with tremendous integrity in all of his work. We were on the wrong side of a very unfair and unreasonable company. Mr. Sexner was able to force them to agree to great terms. I would highly recommend him.

Invaluable
Thank you so much for your caring counsel and assistance. It was absolutely invaluable and I wouldn't hesitate to call on you again - though I hope I never have to!

This man was amazing
He is the single most amazing lawyer I have ever worked with. He knows all his stuff cold. I have worked with other lawyers but he is the best.

Happy with my Attorney (Richard Sexner)
Had some legal issues and Mr. Sexner was nice enough to help me out and handle the case. Helped me out of a bind and the least I can do is give him a favorable review. I've dealt with a few other attorneys but Richard stood out as an exceptional experience and I was satisfied with the outcome. He kept me informed with calls (personally, not just through staff). Was very thorough in explaining options and how we can act on them. Very friendly and personable (which can be a hard trait to find) Overall I would rate him as a very competent and good attorney. Thanks a lot Richard!
