Excellent Attorney

Originally I had hired Dan Hardee to be my attorney but Rich Pinol handled the case for me mainly and by the end I had high confidence in Rich to handle the case all the way through. He was professional and helped me understand the process as it proceeded and was usually available via email and phon...e when needed for things that were urgent. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a good custody attorney! His staff was also amazing and they each handled the case with care and in a timely manner. A special thanks to this whole team of attorneys, paralegal's, and staff for everything you did!

Best Legal Team Around

I cannot say enough positive things about Rich Pinol and his outstanding legal team. From the moment I first reached out to Rich, he and his team were there for me every step of the way. They provided me with the guidance and support I needed to navigate the complex and emotional process of divorce. ... Rich's legal assistant Devory and Asha were exceptional in their roles, always working diligently to keep me informed and up-to-date on any developments in my case. They were incredibly professional, organized, and responsive to all my needs and concerns. I was particularly impressed by their ability to handle the many details of my case with precision and care, while at the same time providing me with the empathy and understanding I needed during such a difficult time. Together, Rich, Devory, and Asha are an incredible team that goes above and beyond for their clients. They are not only skilled and knowledgeable professionals, but they are also compassionate, kind, and genuinely invested in their clients' well-being. If you're looking for a divorce attorney and legal team that truly cares about their clients, look no further than Rich Pinol. I am so grateful for their help and support, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of legal representation for their divorce.

Family Law

Rich is a wonderful attorney that exceeded our expectations. He helped navigate my husband and myself through the harsh world of having to terminate parental rights of our minor children's biological father. As well he helped us then file and get approved for my husband to adopt both children. Throug...h the course of everything he was very responsive, informative and always made sure we were aware of the steps ahead. We would highly recommend him and the law firm.

Amazing Attorney!

We hired Mr. Pinol to help us with custody of our daughter. He is great because he cuts to the chase, no bs and battled for us to maintain what we have. We never ended up in court, and I would have had no worries with him if we did. Highly recommend!
