Richard C. Price

Dick Price was referred to me by a close friend. I needed sound and reasonable advice on how to handle a non contested divorce. Dick was calm, compassionate, and so professional in answering my questions and guiding me towards the appropriate actions to take. I called Dick on several occasions whe...n I needed guidance about deciding between annulment and divorce. He answered all of my questions and gave me sound advice on which route to take. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is going through a difficult divorce. He is very thorough in his work and very knowledgeable about the law. He also has a kind heart.

I have used Mr. Price successfully for the past 18 years. He represented me in divorce along with child custody hearings and negotiations. I was able to gain custody of my daughter with the careful planning and strategies he employed. I can highly recommend him as he is extremely knowledgeable with r...espect to the law, the courts and the judges and how they are likely to rule in any given situation due to his experience. If your child's custody and welfare is at stake you are in good hands with Mr. Price. He is a real servant to the community.

With our initial meeting, I cried, I talked, he listened, he wrote, I talked, I cried, he wrote, he listened. Geez, that first meeting, he and his secretary were so kind & patient. We got through it, and Mr. Price steered the way to allow me to choose the path I wanted and the outcome I was seeki...ng. His role was like that of a captain on the ship, he clearly knew the direction, after listening to me, and clearly knew how to get us there. He knew the course, as though he had been there many times before, he is not easily led off course, he forges ahead in the direction I pointed to. This was a divorce which was unwelcome and started out contentious, with of course, the usual hurt feelings, tears, children, child support, hiding money, withholding information, etc., etc., etc. It couldn't have been worse, but things do get worse before they get better. Once my spouses attorney entered the arena, and increased the insanity, I thought I would literally loose my mind - I really depended a lot on Mr. Price. I can't tell you how many telephone calls I made to him through his secretary, which he either returned or which she answered right away. At times he was in court or in another session, but he always did return my telephone calls. Mr. Price, was a steady hand in this crazy, hurricane in my life. No matter what the opposition threw out, Mr. Price, would calmly prepare the necessary response, and was a consummate, prepared, legal professional, in court, & in his office. At times I would see the other attorney rant and rave in court, look completely foolish, next to this calm man, and I knew I had picked the right man for my divorce. In the end, I received, what was clearly fair, and what I am most happy with. I remain sad about the divorce, I am glad that my attorney represented me with compassion, understanding, respect, knowledge, and expertise. Mr. Price is extremely knowledgeable in the field in which he works. He is such an unassuming guy and a heck of an attorney. Since in my past, I have utilized the services of many administrative assistants, I can't let the opportunity pass without mentioning the rest of Mr. Prices' staff, his legal secretary. A very pleasant lady, who always answered the telephone, listened, answered questions, where she could, followed up with the correct information to Mr. Price, so I didn't have to repeat it, and is an asset to his practice. The office and the legal staff is the whole package. The cost was within reason, I felt very comfortable discussing fees, and I really thought I got MORE than I paid for. Yes, I received great legal counsel, but I also received them from people who were kind, compassionate, caring, and of good character, and I like that.

Mr. Price's inaccurate and untruthful response to my poor review of his services only serve to reassure me that I was correct in seeking other representation. I am angry that he implies I did not understand the process. I continued with the collaborative process after firing him, I did not receive a ...detailed billing for March, I was seeing a MHP throughout the process. I would suggest he did not understand the facts of my case. He obviously has no problem with being untruthful. I again highly recommend finding a different divorce attorney as Mr. Price was unable to adequately provide representation for my case.

Looking back on the last year, it was due to Mr. Price, that I can honestly say, that while divorces are dreadful, the process doesn't have to be dreadful. I met him while looking directly into the eye of the storm - a divorce which began with a lot of hurt feeling, arguing, bickering, & what appea...rd to be no hope for a positive outcome for me & my kids. We were all in the midst of a major crisis. I was quite impressed with his calm demeanor, and his ability to focus with the end in mind. I would occassionally get off track, get annoyed, hurt, etc., and in spite of ME, he was able to steer things in the right direction. He always stayed calm, a cool negotiator, and looking for tack where I was looking at attack! While I'll admit, I often wanted to behave poorly - his ability to hear my needs and work slowly towards those, really won me in the end, a good settlement. I feel like the work we did on continuing to look at the end, really paid off on taking care of my children and me. I thought I would pull my hair out, or at leasy my husband's hair out during the negotiations; but once again, Mr Price's calm, demeanor, his knowledge of the law, coupled with his ability to present calm in a storm, and direct the negotiations, was truly a site to watch. He has renewed my opinion of what attorney's actually do - they care!
