Riley Law Firm Client

Mr. Riley is a very experienced and professional attorney. I was referred to him by another attorney and have now utilized his expertise on two occasions. He is a consummate gentleman and is always consistent in keeping me updated on important developments, status of my position in the case as well a...s his personal recommendations based on 25 years of experience. I found him to be forthright and yet never even approaching an adversarial position. His expertise led my cases to a conclusion that was satisfactory to both parties represented and left no ill will on either side of the case. I would give him the highest possible evaluation score and will say without any reservation that Mr. Riley is the epitome of what I would refer to as an attorney that every client represented by him would feel comfortable, informed, confident, and satisfied.

Very professional

I have no regrets in hiring Mr Riley even though my case didn’t go through (we changed our minds). He explained what can be a complex process very clearly and made sensible recommendations. Like a true professional when I halted proceedings he provided a fair account and returned any unused retaine...r - unlike my wife’s attorney.

A Professional and Human Experience to Family Law

From my first consultation, Jack Riley was a careful listener who walked me through every angle of my case. He helped me establish realistic expectations and gave me an introduction to the legal system I was about to encounter. Jack offers knowledge, experience, and professionalism that has made a ve...ry difficult time less stressful. Working with Jack for just about a year now he has not disappointed and in fact has exceeded all of my expectations. Jack offers a very human experience to a confusing legal system.

I highly recommend him.

I had an excellent experience with Jack. He explained everything thoroughly. Jack kept a tight calendar so I could stay ahead of my deadlines. He helped me track what was due and when, reminded me often and kept me informed. Jack made sure I understood my choices and how different scenarios mi...ght play out, post divorce. Me and my spouse wanted to stay out of court and settle all the issues on our own. Trying to work it out ourselves was heated and at times, hostile. We ended up in mediation once and still had to work some things out through our attorneys. Jack was collected and confident. He remained firm and stayed calm. He went to bat for everything I wanted. Jack was not inflammatory to my spouse or to the situation. In the end, I think that got me farther then anything. I was not the best client. There were times that Jack had to chase me down. I wasn't as timely or responsive as I should have been. He could have dropped my case, but he didn't. Jack was fair and honest. I never felt like he was stacking up fees every time he had a passing thought about my case. I read reviews for EVERYTHING I purchase. I think it's helpful, so I also write reviews for other people to use. However, I don't think Jack needs my help. During the course of my divorce, I referred two friends to him. Both times, he was full and wasn't taking new clients. If you hire Jack, make sure he writes your final decree. My divorce decree was specific and detailed. If I ever need to fall back on it, I can. (You don't want to exit with a decree that is ambiguous and open to interpretation.)

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Jack Riley brings honor to the legal profession. I endorse him not only as an attorney with expertise in his field, but also as a true counselor to his clients that, in most respects, find themselves wishing that they did not need his services. Jack is trustworthy, thorough, thoughtful, honest, reasonable, and a host of other honorable adjectives. The legal community benefits by his example, and the legal profession needs more like Jack. I feel this way not only as a colleague, but also as a client that felt well-treated, understood, and validated throughout his representation of my wife and me."
