CARING & EFFECTIVE
Richard Forst handled my Divorce & Bankruptcy. He can be hard to reach at times but whenever we met in person or spoke on the phone, he made me feel like his only client. He was effective & delivered the services I hired him for. I'm satisfied & would recommend his professional services to anyone.

BEWARE!
He took my money and had me thinking he was working on my simple case of child support. It has been two years and did nothing what so ever.

You should avoid this one.. period.
Horrible mistake hiring this lawyer. One of my biggest mistakes I've ever made. Lesson learned. Basically took the fee and showed up in court (even wondered if he would show up a few times) and really just took the first deal offered. This dog does not bite.
