Very professional and helpful!

My young adult daughter encountered threats from her former employer around a non-compete clause that she had unwittingly signed. Jordan was able to explain her risks and more importantly, find holes in her non-compete clause that made is impossible to enforce. He saved my daughter thousands of dolla...rs and a great deal of stress by quickly and professionally handling her case. One year later, she is still happily employed by her new company and there were no further lawsuit threats from her former employer after Jordan became involved in the case. We are very grateful for his expertise and patience.

Ashley Mah

Litigation lawyer | Sep 28

Relationship: Co-worker

"Mr. Richards and I were trial partners at the State Attorney's Office in Broward County, Florida. Mr. Richards was very professional in handling the demanding and large caseload of a prosecutor. He always came to court prepared for any and all motions, trials, and/or sentencing. He is a true litigator and a hard worker. I believe he has tact and good instinct when it comes to ascertaining the facts of any case, and his delivery of such is a performance that speaks for itself. If I were asked to recommend a passionate and intelligent attorney, it would be Mr. Richards."
