Child custody case - amazing.

Richard Pinol and his team did an amazing job! They went above and beyond for me. I live out of state and I had a challenging case from the start. Richard and his team (Devory and Asha) assured me that everything was going to be okay. They got the job done in a very timely manner and we were able to ...settle before going to trial which saved me thousands of dollars. That is something I thought would never happen because the mom was fighting for full custody and was completely unwilling to work with me. She was fighting me every step of the way but Richard was confident, calm, smart and could also be a little aggressive in the court room IF he needed to be to get his point across. I was very impressed. I would not want to put my trust in anybody other than Richard Pinol. He is worth every dime. Thanks again!

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.

BEST LAWYER IN TOWN!!!!

Rich is hands down one of the best out there. I have had the privileged of hiring him for 2 complicated and extensive custody battles. We had an amazing and positive outcome with both cases. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer to help me make sure everything went accordingly in the best interes...t for my children. Those are very stressful and challenging times in an individuals life and its important that you have a lawyer that cares and goes above and beyond for you. That would be Rich! He is very dedicated and fights some tough battles. Thanks again for all your help!

Top Notch!! Best in Boise!!!

Rich is the best attorney i have ever worked with, and I have worked with him on several matters now he is not like your normal attorney he doesn't treat you just like another client, he genuinely cares about his clients I look at Rich not only as my attorney but as a friend he is extremely professio...nal very well versed in family law and always shows up prepared and ready for court we hired him a second time to do a termination/adoption after having a bad experience previously with another attorney I was very distraught but Rich always shows up and Saves the Day!!! He communicated with me through the entire process sending me emails on a weekly basis explaining all of the steps and process of what was happening he always kept me in the loop and up to date. The Day of court he showed up early and was prepared with all of the correct documents and everything went smoothly and it was the best day of Our Lives! I would highly recommend Rich to anyone who is looking for a family law attorney he is professional intelligent hardworking and extremely personable I will never be able to thank him enough for all of his hard work and Devotion to our case. Thank you so much for all you have done for our family we are forever grateful!
